We show that, simultaneous local scaling of coordinate and time keeping the velocity unaltered is a symmetry of an It\^o-process. Using this symmetry, any It\^o-process can be mapped to a universal additive Gaussian-noise form. We use this…

The spreading of a cloud of independent Brownian particles typically proceeds more effectively at higher temperatures, as it derives from the commonly known Sutherland-Einstein relation for systems in thermal equilibrium. Here, we report on…

The diffusion coefficient--a measure of dissipation, and the entropy--a measure of fluctuation are found to be intimately correlated in many physical systems. Unlike the fluctuation dissipation theorem in linear response theory, the…
