Saddle avoidance of noise-induced transitions in multiscale systems

R Börner, R Deeley, R Römer, T Grafke, V Lucarini… - Physical Review …, 2024 - APS
In multistable dynamical systems driven by weak Gaussian noise, transitions between
competing states are often assumed to pass via a saddle on the separating basin boundary …

Short-time Fokker-Planck propagator beyond the Gaussian approximation

J Kappler - arXiv preprint arXiv:2405.18381, 2024 - arxiv.org
We present a perturbation approach to calculate the short-time propagator, or transition
density, of the one-dimensional Fokker-Planck equation, to in principle arbitrary order in the …

Inferring intermediate states by leveraging the many-body Arrhenius law

V Kumar, A Pal, O Shpielberg - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.18574, 2024 - arxiv.org
Metastable states appear as long-lived intermediate states in various natural transport
phenomena which are governed by energy landscapes. Moreover, they dominate a system's …
