Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics exhibit a variety of complex phenomena far from
equilibrium. It inherits challenges of equilibrium, including accurately describing the joint …

We introduce an alternative route for obtaining reliable cyclic engines, based on two
interacting Brownian particles under time-periodic drivings which can be used as a work-to …

Quantifying stochastic processes is essential to understand many natural phenomena,
particularly in biology, including the cell-fate decision in developmental processes as well as …

For arbitrary nonequilibrium transformations in complex systems, we show that the distance
between the current state and a target state can be decomposed into two terms: one …

Using stochastic thermodynamics, the properties of interacting linear chains subject to
periodic drivings are investigated. The systems are described by Fokker-Planck-Kramers …

In light of ever apparent limitation of the current dominant cancer mutation theory, a
quantitative hypothesis for cancer genesis and progression, endogenous molecular-cellular …

We define common thermodynamic concepts purely within the framework of general Markov
chains and derive Jarzynski's equality and Crooks' fluctuation theorem in this setup. In …

We report that nontrivial topology of a driven Brownian particle restricted on a ring leads to
anomalous behaviors on free energy change. Starting from steady states with identical …

We obtain stochastic dynamics from a system-plus-bath mechanism as an extension of the
Caldeira-Leggett (CL) model in the classical regime. An effective magnetic field and …

We introduce a method for computing the Helmholtz free energy using the flow matching
technique. Unlike previous work that utilized flow-based models for variational free energy …
