The accurate simulation of real--time quantum transport is notoriously difficult, requiring a consistent scheme to treat incoming and outgoing fluxes at the boundary of an open system. We demonstrate a method to converge non--equilibrium…

Periodically driven thermodynamic systems support stable non-equilibrium oscillating states with properties drastically different from equilibrium. They exhibit even more exotic features for low viscous drives, which is a regime that is…

There are only a very few known relations in statistical dynamics that are valid for systems driven arbitrarily far-from-equilibrium. One of these is the fluctuation theorem, which places conditions on the entropy production probability…

The dynamics and structure of nonequilibrium liquids, driven by non-conservative forces which can be either external or internal, generically hold the signature of the net dissipation of energy in the thermostat. Yet, disentangling…
