We calculate the bulk-diffusion coefficient and the conductivity in a broad class of conserved-mass aggregation processes on a ring of discrete sites. These processes involve chipping and fragmentation of masses, which diffuse around and…

We prove that exponential moments of a fluctuation of the pure transport equation decay pointwisely almost as fast as $t^{-3}$ when the domain is any general strictly convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^3$ with the smooth boundary of the diffuse…
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…
Current fluctuations in boundary-driven diffusive systems are, in many cases, studied using hydrodynamic theories. Their predictions are then expected to be valid for currents which scale inversely with the system size. To study this…
Results are presented for the quench dynamics of a clean and interacting electron system, where the quench involves varying the strength of the attractive interaction along arbitrary quench trajectories. The initial state before the quench…
Phase transitions not allowed in equilibrium steady states may happen however at the fluctuating level. We observe for the first time this striking and general phenomenon measuring current fluctuations in an isolated diffusive system. While…

Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) are general lower bounds on the size of fluctutations of dynamical observables. They have important consequences, one being that the precision of estimation of a current is limited by the amount of…
Stochastic dynamics in the energy representation is employed as a method to study non-equilibrium Brownian-like systems. It is shown that the equation of motion for the energy of such systems can be taken in the form of the Langevin…
There exist some boundary-driven open systems with diffusive dynamics whose particle current fluctuations exhibit universal features that belong to the Edwards-Wilkinson universality class. We achieve this result by establishing a mapping,…
