Remarkable similarities in distributions of dynamical observables in chaotic systems
Lucianno Defaveri, Naftali R. Smith
The study of chaotic systems, where rare events play a pivotal role, is essential for understanding complex dynamics due to their sensitivity to initial conditions. Recently, tools…

Nonequilibrium steady state of Brownian motion in an intermittent potential
Soheli Mukherjee, Naftali R. Smith
We calculate the steady state distribution of the position of a Brownian particle under an intermittent confining potential that switches on and of…

Full distribution of the ground-state energy of potentials with weak disorder
Naftali R. Smith
We study the full distribution of the ground-state energy of a single quantum particle in a potential $V(\boldsymbol{x}) = V_0(\boldsymbol{x}) + \sqrtε \, v_1(\boldsymbol{x…
