When a chaotic, ergodic Hamiltonian system with $N$ degrees of freedom is subject to sufficiently rapid periodic driving, its energy evolves diffusively. We derive a Fokker-Planck equation that governs the evolution of the system's…
The Boltzmann equation for d-dimensional inelastic Maxwell models is considered to analyze transport properties in spatially inhomogeneous states close to the simple shear flow. A normal solution is obtained via a Chapman--Enskog--like…
Coherent driving has established itself as a powerful tool for guiding a many-body quantum system into a desirable, coherent non-equilibrium state. A thermodynamically large system will, however, almost always saturate to a featureless…

For heat flux $q$ and temperature $T$ we introduce a modified Fourier--Cattaneo law $q_t+ l \frac{q}{t}= - kT_x .$ The consequence of it is a non-autonomous telegraph-type equation. % $\epsilon S_{tt} + \frac{a}{t} S_t = S_{xx}$ . This…
We analyze closed one-dimensional chains of weakly coupled many level systems, by means of the so-called Hilbert space average method (HAM). Subject to some concrete conditions on the Hamiltonian of the system, our theory predicts energy…
We consider a system of particles subjected to a uniform external force E and undergoing random collisions with "virtual" fixed obstacles, as in the Drude model of conductivity. The system is maintained in a nonequilibrium stationary state…
In these notes I explain how to describe one-dimensional quantum systems that are simultaneously near to, but not exactly at, a critical point, and in a far-from-equilibrium steady state. This description uses a density matrix on scattering…
We numerically determine the entropy for heat-conducting states, which is connected to the so-called excess heat considered as a basic quantity for steady-state thermodynamics in nonequilibrium. We adopt an efficient method to estimate the…
We study real-space condensation in a broad class of stochastic mass transport models. We show that the steady state of such models has a pair-factorised form which generalizes the standard factorized steady states. The condensation in this…
We establish a unique continuation property for stochastic heat equations evolving in a bounded domain $G$. Our result shows that the value of the solution can be determined uniquely by means of its value on an arbitrary open subdomain of…
We study a model of two interacting Hamiltonian particles subject to a common potential in contact with two Langevin heat reservoirs: one at finite and one at infinite temperature. This is a toy model for 'extreme' non-equilibrium…
In magnetoconvection, the flow is governed by the interplay between gravitational buoyancy and the Lorentz force, with one of these forces dominating in different regimes. In this paper, we develop a model with a single adjustable parameter…
Two aspects of conductive heat are focused here (i) the nature of conductive heat, defined as that form of energy that is transferred as a result of a temperature difference and (ii) the nature of the intermolecular potentials that induces…
