A Fluctuation Theorem (FT), both Classical and Quantum, describes the large-deviations in the approach to equilibrium of an isolated quasi-integrable system. Two characteristics make it unusual: (i) it concerns the internal dynamics of an…

The Fluctuation Theorem (FT) gives an analytic expression for the probability, in a nonequilibrium system of finite size observed for a finite time, that the dissipative flux will flow in the reverse direction to that required by the Second…

In this review, we scrutinize historical and modern results on the linear response of dynamical systems to external perturbations with a particular emphasis on the celebrated relationship between fluctuations and dissipation expressed by…

The absence of a simple fluctuation-dissipation theorem is a major obstacle for studying systems that are not in thermodynamic equilibrium. We show that for a fluid in a non-equilibrium steady state characterized by a constant temperature…

An equilibrium system which is perturbed by an external potential relaxes to a new equilibrium state, a process obeying the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. In contrast, perturbing by nonconservative forces yields a nonequilibrium steady…
