A chain of interacting particles under strain

Probability 2010-07-20 v1

Abstract

We investigate the behaviour of a chain of interacting Brownian particles with one end fixed and the other moving away at slow speed, in the limit of small noise. The interaction between particles is through a pairwise potential with finite range. We consider both overdamped and underdamped dynamics.
