We employ a novel hydrodynamic framework for active matter coupled to an environment to study the local temperature of an active nematic, assuming proximity to thermal equilibrium. We show that, due to the mechanosensitivity of fuel…

This is a continuation, and conclusion, of our study of bounded solutions $u$ of the semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the real line whose initial data $u_0=u(\cdot,0)$ have finite limits $\theta^\pm$ as $x\to\pm\infty$. We…

Many-body non-equilibrium steady states can be described by a Landau-Ginzburg theory if one allows non-analytic terms in the potential. We substantiate this claim by working out the case of the Ising magnet in contact with a thermal bath…

We consider the stochastic heat equation (SHE) on the torus $\mathbb{T}=[0,1]$, driven by space-time white noise $\dot W$, with an initial condition $u_0$ that is nonnegative and not identically zero: \begin{equation*} \frac{\partial…

Eigenstate thermalization in quantum many-body systems implies that eigenstates at high energy are similar to random vectors. Identifying systems where at least some eigenstates are non-thermal is an outstanding question. In this work we…

In many circumstances the perfect fluid conservation equations can be directly integrated to give a Geometric-Thermodynamic equation: typically that the lapse $N$ is the reciprocal of the enthalphy $h$, ($ N=1/h$). This result is…

The asymptotic behavior, as $T\to\infty$, of some functionals of the form $I_T(t)=F_T(\xi_T(t))+\int_0^tg_T(\xi_T(s))\,dW_T(s)$, $t\ge0$ is studied. Here $\xi_T(t)$ is the solution to the time-inhomogeneous It\^{o} stochastic differential…
