We investigate numerically the validity of the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation formula in the two and three dimensional periodic Lorentz gas subjected to constant electric and magnetic fields and thermostated by the Gaussian isokinetic…
Equilibrium is characterized by its fundamental properties such as the detailed balance, the fluctuation-dissipation relation, and no heat dissipation. Based on the stochastic thermodynamics, we show that these three properties are…
D.J. Evans, et al., [Phys. Rev. Lett. 71, 2401 (1993)] discovered a relation, subsequently known as the Fluctuation Theorem (FT), which quantifies the probability of observing fluctuations violating the second law of thermodynamics in…
All previously derived thermodynamic fluctuation theorems (FTs) that concern multiple co-evolving systems have required that each system can only change its state during an associated pre-fixed, limited set of time intervals. However, in…
Recently Wang et al. carried out a laboratory experiment, where a Brownian particle was dragged through a fluid by a harmonic force with constant velocity of its center. This experiment confirmed a theoretically predicted work related…
Quantum extensions of the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem (FT) for the entropy production have been discussed by several authors. There is a practical gap between microscopic forms of FT and mesoscopic (i.e. not purely Hamiltonian)…
A thermostatted dynamical model with five degrees of freedom is used to test both the Evans-Searles and the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation relations (ESFR and GCFR respectively). In the absence of an external driving field, the model…
We construct a microscopic theory of applying a heat flow from thermostatted boundary walls in the film geometry. We treat a classical one-component fluid, but our method is applicable to any fluids and solids. We express linear response of…
Nonequilibrium mode-coupling theory (MCT) for uniformly sheared underdamped systems is developed, starting from the microscopic thermostatted SLLOD equation, and the corresponding Liouville equation. Special attention is paid to the…
Recently there has been considerable interest in the Fluctuation Theorem (FT). The FT shows how time reversible microscopic dynamics leads to irreversible macroscopic behavior as the system size or observation time increases. We show that…

This work concerns the statistics of the Two-Time Measurement definition of heat variation in each reservoir of a thermodynamic quantum system. We study the cumulant generating function of the heat flows in the thermodynamic and large-time…

Fluctuation theorems are key to understanding both fundamental and applied aspects of non-equilibrium thermodynamics of small systems. We study the non-Markovian entropy production fluctuation theorem for the diffusion process of charged…
In the last ten years, a number of ``Conventional Fluctuation Theorems'' have been derived for systems with deterministic or stochastic dynamics, in a transient or in a non-equilibrium stationary state. These theorems gave explicit…

We consider steady state heat conduction across a quantum harmonic chain connected to reservoirs modelled by infinite collection of oscillators. The heat, $Q$, flowing across the oscillator in a time interval $\tau$ is a stochastic variable…
When modeling charge dynamics in a chain of N sites at a temperature T, a Langevin thermostat and a Hamiltonian system, i.e., a chain heated to a given temperature before charge is injected, are compared. It is shown that the polaron…
Nonequilibrium systems exchange the energy with an environment in the form of work and heat. The work done on a system obeys the fluctuation theorem, while the dissipated heat which differs from the work by the internal energy change does…
