The large deviation approach to statistical mechanics

H Touchette - Physics Reports, 2009 - Elsevier
The theory of large deviations is concerned with the exponential decay of probabilities of
large fluctuations in random systems. These probabilities are important in many fields of …

Non-equilibrium steady states: fluctuations and large deviations of the density and of the current

B Derrida - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
These lecture notes give a short review of methods such as the matrix ansatz, the additivity
principle or the macroscopic fluctuation theory, developed recently in the theory of non …

Large deviations and ensembles of trajectories in stochastic models

RL Jack, P Sollich - Progress of Theoretical Physics Supplement, 2010 - academic.oup.com
We consider ensembles of trajectories associated with large deviations of time-integrated
quantities in stochastic models. Motivated by proposals that these ensembles are relevant …

Current fluctuations in stochastic lattice gases

L Bertini, A De Sole, D Gabrielli, G Jona-Lasinio… - Physical review …, 2005 - APS
We study current fluctuations in lattice gases in the macroscopic limit extending the dynamic
approach for density fluctuations developed in previous articles. More precisely, we …

Thermodynamics of computations with absolute irreversibility, unidirectional transitions, and stochastic computation times

G Manzano, G Kardeş, É Roldán, DH Wolpert - Physical Review X, 2024 - APS
Developing a thermodynamic theory of computation is a challenging task at the interface of
nonequilibrium thermodynamics and computer science. In particular, this task requires …

Dynamical symmetry breaking and phase transitions in driven diffusive systems

Y Baek, Y Kafri, V Lecomte - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
We study the probability distribution of a current flowing through a diffusive system
connected to a pair of reservoirs at its two ends. Sufficient conditions for the occurrence of a …

Tricritical behavior in dynamical phase transitions

T Agranov, ME Cates, RL Jack - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We identify a new scenario for dynamical phase transitions associated with time-integrated
observables occurring in diffusive systems described by the macroscopic fluctuation theory …
