Non-Equilibrium Steady States
The mathematical physics of mechanical systems in thermal equilibrium is a well studied, and relatively easy, subject, because the Gibbs distribution is in general an adequate guess for the equilibrium state. On the other hand, the mathematical physics of non-equilibrium systems, such as that of a chain of masses connected with springs to two (infinite) heat reservoirs is more difficult, precis...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium steady states in supramolecular polymerization
Living systems use fuel-driven supramolecular polymers such as actin to control important cell functions. Fuel molecules like ATP are used to control when and where such polymers should assemble and disassemble. The cell supplies fresh ATP to the cytosol and removes waste products to sustain steady states. Artificial fuel-driven polymers have been developed recently, but keeping them in sustain...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium steady states for chains of four rotors
We study a chain of four interacting rotors (rotators) connected at both ends to stochastic heat baths at different temperatures. We show that for non-degenerate interaction potentials the system relaxes, at a stretched exponential rate, to a non-equilibrium steady state (NESS). Rotors with high energy tend to decouple from their neighbors due to fast oscillation of the forces. Because of this,...
متن کاملTowards a classification scheme for non-equilibrium steady states
A general classification scheme for nonequilibrium steady states in terms of their stationary probability distribution and the associated probability currents is proposed. This scheme allows us to identify all choices of transition rates, based on a master equation, which generate the same nonequilibrium steady state. One important consequence is a generalized detailed balance condition.
متن کاملFluctuation relations in simple examples of non-equilibrium steady states
We discuss fluctuation relations in simple cases of non-equilibrium Langevin dynamics. In particular, we show that close to non-equilibrium steady states with non-vanishing probability currents some of these relations reduce to a modified version of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. The latter may be interpreted as the equilibrium-like relation in the reference frame moving with the mean loc...
