Rayleigh-Ritz Calculation of Effective Potential Far From Equilibrium

chao-dyn 2009-10-28 v1 Chaotic Dynamics

Abstract

We demonstrate the utility of a Rayleigh-Ritz scheme recently proposed to compute the nonequilibrium effective potential nonperturbatively in a strong noise regime far from equilibrium. A simple Kramers model of an ionic conductor is used to illustrate the efficiency of the method.
