While entropy changes are the usual subject of fluctuation theorems, we seek fluctuation relations involving time-symmetric quantities, namely observables that do not change sign if the trajectories are observed backward in time. We find…
We discuss an extension of the fluctuation theorem to stochastic models that, in the limit of zero external drive, are not able to equilibrate with their environment, extending results presented by Sellitto (cond-mat/9809186). We show that…
We extend the work of Kurchan on the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem, which yields a symmetry property of the large deviation function, to general Markov processes. These include jump processes describing the evolution of stochastic…
We performed numerical experiments on a two-dimensional driven lattice gas, which constitutes a simple stochastic nonequilibrium many-body model. In this model, focusing on the behavior along the direction transverse to the external driving…
We formulate a dynamical fluctuation theory for stationary non equilibrium states (SNS) which is tested explicitly in stochastic models of interacting particles. In our theory a crucial role is played by the time reversed dynamics. Within…
We explore a number of explicit response formulae around the boundary driven zero range process to changes in the exit and entrance rates. In such a nonequilibrium regime kinetic (and not only thermodynamic) aspects make a difference in the…
In systems removed from equilibrium, intrinsic microscopic fluctuations become correlated over distances comparable to the characteristic macroscopic length over which the external constraint is exerted. In order to investigate this…
For nonequilibrium steady states, we identify observables whose fluctuations satisfy a general symmetry and for which a new reciprocity relation can be shown. Unlike the situation in recently discussed fluctuation theorems, these…
We study the stationary state of a one-dimensional kinetic model where a probe particle is driven by an external field E and collides, elastically or inelastically, with a bath of particles at temperature T. We focus on the stationary…
We study the rheological signatures of departure from equilibrium in two-dimensional viscous fluids with and without internal spin. Under the assumption of isotropy, we provide the most general linear constitutive relations for stress and…
We study the non-equilibrium stationary fluctuations of a symmetric zero-range process on the discrete interval $\{1, \ldots, N-1\}$ coupled to reservoirs at sites $1$ and $N-1$, which inject and remove particles at rates proportional to…
In this note we discuss a paradigmatic example of interacting particles subject to non conservative external forces and to the action of thermostats consisting of external (finite) reservoirs of particles. We then consider a model of…
Relationships are obtained expressing the breaking of spin-reversal symmetry by an external magnetic field in Gibbsian canonical equilibrium states of spin systems under specific assumptions. These relationships include an exact fluctuation…
Isometric fluctuation relations are deduced for the fluctuations of the order parameter in equilibrium systems of condensed-matter physics with broken discrete or continuous symmetries. These relations are similar to their analogues…
A time-reversal symmetry relation is established for out-of-equilibrium dilute or rarefied gases described by the fluctuating Boltzmann equation. The relation is obtained from the associated coarse-grained master equation ruling the random…
Breakdown of time-reversal symmetry is a defining property of non-equilibrium systems, such as active matter, which is composed of units that consume energy. We employ a formalism that allows us to derive a class of identities associated…
It has recently been pointed out that Hamiltonian particle systems in constant magnetic fields satisfy generalized time-reversal symmetries that enable to prove useful statistical relationships based on equilibrium phase-space probability…
The distribution of the performed work for spin glasses with gauge symmetry is considered. With the aid of the gauge symmetry, which leads to the exact/rigorous results in spin glasses, we find a fascinating relation of the performed work…
Currents of particles or energy in driven nonequilibrium steady states are known to satisfy certain symmetries, referred to as fluctuation relations, determining the ratio of the probabilities of positive fluctuations to negative ones. A…
How is it that entropy derivatives almost in their own are characterizing the state of a system close to equilibrium, and what happens further away from it? We explain within the framework of Markov jump processes why fluctuation theory can…
