Hunting for Maxwell's Demon in the Wild
Johan du Buisson, Jannik Ehrich, Matthew P. Leighton +4
The paradox of Maxwell's demon motivated the development of information thermodynamics and the creation of nanoscale information engines. We now understand that machines such as th…
Performance limits of information engines
Johan du Buisson, David A. Sivak, John Bechhoefer
We review recent studies of a colloidal information engine that consists of a bead in water and held by an optical trap. The bead is ratcheted upward without any apparent external…
Large deviations of the stochastic area for linear diffusions
Johan du Buisson, Thamu D. P. Mnyulwa, Hugo Touchette
The area enclosed by the two-dimensional Brownian motion in the plane was studied by Lévy, who found the characteristic function and probability density of this random variable. Fo…
Dynamical large deviations of linear diffusions
Johan du Buisson, Hugo Touchette
Linear diffusions are used to model a large number of stochastic processes in physics, including small mechanical and electrical systems perturbed by thermal noise, as well as Brow…
Dynamical large deviations of diffusions
Johan du Buisson
We solve two problems related to the fluctuations of time-integrated functionals of Markov diffusions, used in physics to model nonequilibrium systems. In the first we derive and i…
