We present a general method to identify an arbitrary number of fluctuating quantities which satisfy a detailed fluctuation theorem for all times within the framework of time-inhomogeneous Markovian jump processes. In doing so we provide a…

Near equilibrium, small current fluctuations are described by a Gaussian with a linear-response variance regulated by the dissipation. Here, we demonstrate that dissipation still plays a dominant role in structuring large fluctuations…

The fluctuation-dissipation theorem is a central result in statistical mechanics and is usually formulated for systems described by diffusion processes. In this paper, we propose a generalization for a wider class of stochastic processes,…

The principal aim of the present work is to explore limit theorems for small random perturbations of a planar impulsive dynamical system, where impulses occur at hitting times of a suitable switching surface, and are thus state-dependent.…

We propose a simple model for reaction-diffusion systems with orientational constraints on the reactivity of particles, and map it onto a field theory with upper critical dimension d_c=2. To two-loop level the long-time particle density…

The response of physical systems to external perturbations can be used to probe both their equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics. While response and correlation functions are related in equilibrium by fluctuation-dissipation theorems,…
