Active systems evade the rules of equilibrium thermodynamics by constantly dissipating
energy at the level of their microscopic components. This energy flux stems from the …

Stationary nonequilibrium states describe steady flows through macroscopic systems.
Although they represent the simplest generalization of equilibrium states, they exhibit a …

Unlike equilibrium statistical mechanics, with its well-established foundations, a similar
widely accepted framework for non-equilibrium statistical mechanics (NESM) remains …

In ergodic physical systems, time-averaged quantities converge (for large times) to their
ensemble-averaged values. Large deviation theory describes rare events where these time …

A generalized fluctuation-response relation is found for thermal systems driven out of
equilibrium. Its derivation is independent of many details of the dynamics, which is only …

Recent large deviation results have provided general lower bounds for the fluctuations of
time-integrated currents in the steady state of stochastic systems. A corollary are so-called …

We determine the full statistics of nonstationary heat transfer in the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti
lattice gas model at long times by uncovering and exploiting complete integrability of the …

Active work measures how far the local self-forcing of active particles translates into real
motion. Using population Monte Carlo methods, we investigate large deviations in the active …

We study the current large deviations for a lattice model of interacting active particles
displaying a motility-induced phase separation (MIPS). To do this, we first derive the exact …

We analyze biased ensembles of trajectories for diffusive systems. In trajectories biased
either by the total activity or the total current, we use fluctuating hydrodynamics to show that …
