Campisi, Zhan, Talkner and H\"anggi have recently proposed [Campisi] the use of the logarithmic oscillator as an ideal Hamiltonian thermostat, both in simulations and actual experiments. However, the system exhibits several theoretical…
A logarithmic oscillator (in short, log-oscillator) behaves like an ideal thermostat because of its infinite heat capacity: when it weakly couples to another system, time averages of the system observables agree with ensemble averages from…
With this work we present two new methods for the generation of thermostated, manifestly Hamiltonian dynamics and provide corresponding illustrations. The basis for this new class of thermostats are the peculiar thermodynamics as exhibited…
Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations often use mechanisms called thermostats to regulate the temperature. A Hamiltonian is presented for the case of the isoenergetic (constant internal energy) thermostat corresponding to a tunable…
Campisi, Zhan, Talkner, and Haenggi state, in promoting a new logarithmic computational thermostat [ arXiv 1203.5968 and 1204.4412 ], that (thermostated) Nose-Hoover mechanics is not Hamiltonian. First I point out that Dettmann clearly…
We study the problem of a potential interaction of a finite-dimensional Lagrangian system (an oscillator) with a linear infinite-dimensional one (a thermostat). In spite of the energy preservation and the Lagrangian (Hamiltonian) nature of…
A logarithmic oscillator has the outstanding property that the expectation value of its kinetic energy is constant for all stationary states [1]. Recently the ansatz that this property can be used to define a Hamiltonian thermostat has been…
In a recent letter ({\it{EPL}}, {\bf{104}} (2013) 60003; see also {\it {arXiv:1309.5645}}), Plastino and Rocca suggest that the divergences inherent to the formulation of nonextensive statistical mechanics can be eliminated {\it {via}} the…
Hamiltonian mechanics can be used to constrain temperature simultaneously with energy. We illustrate the interesting situations that develop when two different temperatures are imposed within a composite Hamiltonian system. The model…
In a recent paper [P. Strasberg and M. Esposito, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 101}, 050101(R) (2020)] an attempt is presented to formulate the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of an open system in terms of the Hamiltonian of mean force. The purpose of…
We consider and compare four Hamiltonian formulations of thermostated mechanics, three of them kinetic, and the other one configurational. Though all four approaches ``work'' at equilibrium, their application to many-body nonequilibrium…
The Gaussian isokinetic and isoenergetic thermostats of Hoover and Evans are formally equivalent as remarked by Gallavotti, Rondoni and Cohen. But outside of equilibrium the fluctuations are uncontrolled and might break the equivalence. We…
The relation between finite isokinetic thermostats and infinite Hamiltonian thermostats is studied and their equivalence is heuristically discussed.
We construct a Hamiltonian whose dynamics simulate the dynamics of every other Hamiltonian up to exponentially long times in the system size. The Hamiltonian is time-independent, local, one-dimensional, and translation invariant. As a…
There are problems with defining the thermodynamic limit of systems with long-range interactions; as a result, the thermodynamic behavior of these types of systems is anomalous. In the present work, we review some concepts from both…
In order to solve quantum field theory in a non-perturbative way, Lagrangian lattice simulations have been very successful. Here we discuss a recently proposed alternative Hamiltonian lattice formulation - the Monte Carlo Hamiltonian. In…
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…
We consider a class of non-standard, two-dimensional (2D) Hamiltonian models that may show features of active particle dynamics, and therefore, we refer to these models as active Hamiltonian (AH) systems. The idea is to consider a spin…
The relation between isoenergetic and Hamiltonian thermostats is studied and their equivalence in the thermodynamic limit is proved in space dimension $d=1,2$. v.2: W_n and x_n replace W and x where needed
Long-range interacting Hamiltonian systems are believed to relax generically towards non-equilibrium states called "quasi-stationary" because they evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium very slowly, on a time-scale diverging with particle…
