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

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 …

The first comprehensive graduate-level introduction to stochastic thermodynamics
Stochastic thermodynamics is a well-defined subfield of statistical physics that aims to …

We study the statistical properties of active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUPs). In this
simplest of models, the Gaussian white noise of overdamped Brownian colloids is replaced …

These are lecture notes for a series of lectures given at the Les Houches Summer School on
Integrability in Atomic and Condensed Matter Physics, 30 July to 24 August 2018. The same …

The reason we never observe violations of the second law of thermodynamics is a matter of
statistics: When very many degrees of freedom are involved, the odds are overwhelmingly …

Active matter encompasses systems whose individual constituents dissipate energy to exert
propelling forces on their environment. These systems exhibit dynamical phenomena with …

There are only a very few known relations in statistical dynamics that are valid for systems
driven arbitrarily far-from-equilibrium. One of these is the fluctuation theorem, which places …

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 …

During the 1980's there were many developments regarding the nonequilibrium statistical
mechanics of dense classical atomic fluids. These developments have had a major impact …
