The past two decades have seen a revolution in statistical physics, generalizing it to apply to systems of arbitrary size, evolving while arbitrarily far from equilibrium. Many of these new results are based on analyzing the dynamics of the…

Optimal (reversible) processes in thermodynamics can be modelled as step-by-step processes, where the system is successively thermalized with respect to different Hamiltonians by an external thermal bath. However, in practice interactions…

We consider a class of dynamical systems, which we call weakly coarse expanding, which is a generalization to the postcritically infinite case of expanding Thurston maps as discussed by Bonk-Meyer and is closely related to coarse expanding…

We introduce the notion of a quasistatic dynamical system, which generalizes that of an ordinary dynamical system. Quasistatic dynamical systems are inspired by the namesake processes in thermodynamics, which are idealized processes where…

The recent study by B. De Bruyne, S. N. Majumdar, H. Orland and G. Schehr [arXiv:2110.07573], concerning the conditioning of the Brownian motion and of random walks on global dynamical constraints over a finite time-window $T$, is…

Fluctuations of thermodynamic quantities become non-negligible and play an important role when the system size is small. We develop finite-time thermodynamics of fluctuations in microscopic heat engines whose environmental temperature and…

The Ruelle thermodynamic formalism for dynamical trajectories over the large time $T$ corresponds to the large deviation theory for the information per unit time of the trajectories probabilities. The microcanonical analysis consists in…
