We present a discussion of the linear thermoelectric response of an interacting electron gas in a quantizing magnetic field. Boundary currents can carry a significant fraction of the net current passing through the system. We derive general…
Exerting a nonequilibrium drive on an otherwise equilibrium Langevin process brings the dynamics out of equilibrium but can also speedup the approach to the Boltzmann steady-state. Transverse forces are a minimal framework to achieve…
Understanding how nonequilibrium systems respond to perturbations is a central challenge in physics. In this work, we establish mutual linearity in nonequilibrium overdamped Langevin systems. This theory provides a framework for controlling…
