We introduce a general formulation of the fluctuation-dissipation relations (FDR) holding also in far-from-equilibrium stochastic dynamics. A great advantage of this version of the FDR is that it does not require the explicit knowledge of…
The fluctuation-dissipation (F-D) theorem is a fundamental result for systems near thermodynamic equilibrium, and justifies studies between microscopic and macroscopic properties. It states that the nonequilibrium relaxation dynamics is…
We derive a general set of fluctuation relations for a nonequilibrium open quantum system described by a Lindblad master equation. In the special case of conservative Hamiltonian dynamics, these identities allow us to retrieve quantum…
A driven granular material, e.g. a vibrated box full of sand, is a stationary system which may be very far from equilibrium. The standard equilibrium statistical mechanics is therefore inadequate to describe fluctuations in such a system.…
We present a new class of fluctuation relations, to which we will refer as Fluctuation Relations for Current Components (FRCCs). FRCCs can be used to estimate system parameters when complete information about nonequilibrium many-body…
In the last ten years, a number of ``Conventional Fluctuation Theorems'' have been derived for systems with deterministic or stochastic dynamics, in a transient or in a non-equilibrium stationary state. These theorems gave explicit…
The primary objective of this work is to develop coarse-graining schemes for stochastic many-body microscopic models and quantify their effectiveness in terms of a priori and a posteriori error analysis. In this paper we focus on stochastic…
We present general results on fluctuations and spatial correlations of the coarse-grained empirical density and current of Markovian diffusion in equilibrium or non-equilibrium steady states on all time scales. We unravel a deep connection…
We develop quantitative error estimates connecting microscopic fluctuation of interacting particle systems with the mobilities of their hydrodynamic limits. Focusing on the Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process and systems of independent…
In this note we review recent progress about fluctuation relations and their applicability to free energy recovery in single molecule experiments. We underline the importance of the operational definition for the mechanical work and the…
We experimentally study the fluctuations of the work done by an external Gaussian random force on two different stochastic systems coupled to a thermal bath: a colloidal particle in an optical trap and an atomic force microscopy cantilever.…
Starting from a critical analysis of recently reported surprisingly large uncertainties in length and position measurements deduced within the framework of quantum gravity, we embark on an investigation both of the correlation structure of…
Recently many results namely the Fluctuation theorems (FT), have been discovered for systems arbitrarily away from equilibrium. Many of these relations have been experimentally tested. The system under consideration is usually driven out of…
Two approaches to small-scale and quantum thermodynamics are fluctuation relations and one-shot statistical mechanics. Fluctuation relations (such as Crooks' Theorem and Jarzynski's Equality) relate nonequilibrium behaviors to equilibrium…
We demonstrate how the dynamical coarse-graining approach can be systematically extended to higher orders in the coupling between system and reservoir. Up to second order in the coupling constant we explicitly show that dynamical…
In this paper, we study the stationary states of diffusive dynamics driven out of equilibrium by reservoirs. For a small forcing, the system remains close to equilibrium and the large deviation functional of the density can be computed…
We derive generalized Fluctuation-Dissipation Relations (FDR) holding for a general stochastic dynamics that includes as subcases both equilibrium models for passive colloids and non-equilibrium models used to describe active particles. The…
Many biological systems can be described by finite Markov models. A general method for simplifying master equations is presented that is based on merging adjacent states. The approach preserves the steady-state probability distribution and…
A notion of stochastic deformation is introduced and the corresponding algebraic deformation procedure is developed. This procedure is analogous to the deformation of an algebra of observables like deformation quantization, but for an…
We consider work fluctuation relations (FRs) for generic types of dynamics generating anomalous diffusion: Levy flights, long-correlated Gaussian processes and time-fractional kinetics. By combining Langevin and kinetic approaches we…
