A number of properties of systems in a nonequilibrium steady state (NESS) are investigated by a generalization of the Onsager-Machlup (OM) path integral approach for systems in an equilibrium state (ES). A thermodynamics formally identical…

Entropy production is one of the most important characteristics of non-equilibrium steady states. We study here the steady-state entropy production, both at short times as well as in the long-time limit, of two important classes of…

Most natural thermodynamic systems operate far from equilibrium, developing persistent currents and organizing into non-equilibrium stationary states (NESSs). Yet, the principles by which such systems self-organize, breaking equilibrium…

A simple model of charge transport is provided by a classical particle in a smooth random potential and a dissipative coupling to the environment in the form of Markovian noise and friction. The corresponding Non-Equilibrium Steady State…

In the 1980s it was theoretically predicted that correlations of various observables in a fluid in a non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) are extraordinarily long-ranged, extending, in a well-defined sense, over the size of the system. This…

We address the question of how a non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) is reached in the Linbdladian dynamics of an open quantum system. We develop an expansion of the density matrix in terms of the NESS-excitations, each of which has its own…

For many-electron systems, we consider a nonequilibrium state (NES) that is driven by a pump field(s), which is either an optical field or a longitudinal electric field. For the differential optical conductivity describing the differential…
