The interest in active matter stimulates the need to generalize thermodynamic description and relations to active matter systems, which are intrinsically out of equilibrium. One important example is the Jarzynski relation, which links the…
We have studied the Jarzynski equality (JE) in van der Pol and Rayleigh oscillators which are typical deterministic non-Hamiltonian models, but not expected to rigorously satisfy the JE because they are not microscopically reversible. Our…

The Jarzynski relation is a recently discovered result relating the average exponential of the work done under nonequilibrium conditions to an equilibrium free energy difference. We illustrate this remarkable relation by considering the…

According to the Jarzynski theorem, equilibrium free energy differences can be calculated from the statistics of work carried out during non-equilibrium transformations. Although exact, this approach can be plagued by large statistical…
Jarzynski's equality (JE) allows us to compute free energy differences from distributions of work. In molecular dynamics simulations, the traditional way of constructing work distributions is to perform as many pulling simulations as…
The Jarzynski equality equates the mean of the exponential of the negative of the work (per fixed temperature) done by a changing Hamiltonian on a system, initially in thermal equilibrium at that temperature, to the ratio of the final to…
A promising method for calculating free energy differences Delta F is to generate non-equilibrium data via ``fast-growth'' simulations or experiments -- and then use Jarzynski's equality. However, a difficulty with using Jarzynski's…
There are two related theorems which hold even in far from equilibrium, namely fluctuation theorem and Jarzynski equality. Fluctuation theorem states the existence of symmetry of fluctuation of entropy production, while Jarzynski equality…
Crook's Fluctuation Theorem and Jarzynski equality are immensely powerful tools in obtaining equilibrium properties through non-equilibrium transition between two equilibrium states. In this letter, we propose an extension to the Crook's…
The Jarzynski equality (JE) is known as an exact identity for nonequillibrium systems. The JE was originally formulated for isolated and isothermal systems, while Adib reported an JE extended to an isoenergetic process. In this paper, we…
The Jarzynski equality and the fluctuation theorem relate equilibrium free energy differences to non-equilibrium measurements of the work. These relations extend to single-molecule experiments that have probed the finite-time thermodynamics…
The universal quantum work relation connects a functional of an arbitrary observable averaged over the forward process to the free energy difference and another functional averaged over the time-reversed process. Here, we ask the question…
Based on the observation that the thermodynamic equilibrium free energy of an open quantum system in contact with a thermal environment can be understood as the difference between the free energy of the total system and that of the bare…
