Path integral approach to Brownian motion driven with an ac force.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Brownian motion in a periodic potential driven by an ac (oscillatory) force is investigated for the full range of damping constant from the overdamped limit to the underdamped limit. The path (functional) integral approach is advanced to produce formulas for the probability distribution function and for the current of the Brownian particle in response to an ac driving force. The negative friction Langevin dynamics technique is employed to evaluate the dc current for various parameters without invoking the overdamped or the underdamped approximation. The dc current is found to have nonlinear dependence upon the damping constant, the potential parameter, and the ac force magnitude and frequency.

Diffusion in periodic potentials with path integral hyperdynamics.
We consider the diffusion of brownian particles in one-dimensional periodic potentials as a test bench for the recently proposed stochastic path integral hyperdynamics (PIHD) scheme [Chen and Horing, J. Chem. Phys. 126, 224103 (2007)]. First, we consider the case where PIHD is used to enhance the transition rate of activated rare events. To this end, we study the diffusion of a single brownian ...

متن کاملInjected Power Fluctuations in Langevin Equation
Using path integral method, we compute exactly the probability density function of the power (averaged over a large time interval of length τ) injected (and dissipated) by the random force into a Brownian particle driven by a Langevin equation. The resulting distribution, as well as the associated large deviation function, display strong asymmetry, whose origin is discussed. Moreover, the so-ca...
متن کاملFractional Lévy motion through path integrals
Abstract. Fractional Lévy motion (fLm) is the natural generalization of fractional Brownian motion in the context of self-similar stochastic processes and stable probability distributions. In this paper we give an explicit derivation of the propagator of fLm by using path integral methods. The propagators of Brownian motion and fractional Brownian motion are recovered as particular cases. The f...
