Comment on ``Theory of Spinodal Decomposition''

open access: yes, 1995
I comment on a paper by S. B. Goryachev [PRL vol 72, p.1850 (1994)] that presents a theory of non-equilibrium dynamics for scalar systems quenched into an ordered phase.

Small-scale behaviour in deterministic reaction models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a recent paper published in this journal [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 42 (2009) 495004] we studied a one-dimensional particles system where nearest particles attract with a force inversely proportional to a power \alpha of their distance and coalesce ...

Mesoscopic virial equation for nonequilibrium statistical mechanics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
We derive a class of mesoscopic virial equations governing energy partition between conjugate position and momentum variables of individual degrees of freedom.

Nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions in the XY model: comparison of unitary time evolution and reduced density operator approaches

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
We study nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions in the XY spin 1/2 chain using the ${{C}^{*}}$ algebra. We show that the well-known quantum phase transition at a magnetic field of h = 1 also persists in the nonequilibrium setting as long as one of the ...

Level 2 and level 2.5 large deviation functionals for systems with and without detailed balance

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
Large deviation functions are an essential tool in the statistics of rare events. Often they can be obtained by contraction from a so-called level 2 or level 2.5 large deviation functional characterizing the empirical density and current of the ...

Instability, Intermittency and Multiscaling in Discrete Growth Models of Kinetic Roughening

open access: yes, 1996
We show by numerical simulations that discretized versions of commonly studied continuum nonlinear growth equations (such as the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation and the Lai-Das Sarma equation) and related atomistic models of epitaxial growth have a generic ...

Currents and fluctuations of quantum heat transport in harmonic chains

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
Heat transport in open quantum systems is particularly susceptible to the modeling of system–reservoir interactions. It thus requires us to consistently treat the coupling between a quantum system and its environment.

Thermoelectric efficiency of three-terminal quantum thermal machines

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
The efficiency of a thermal engine working in the linear response regime in a multi-terminal configuration is discussed. For the generic three-terminal case, we provide a general definition of local and non-local transport coefficients: electrical and ...

Stochastic efficiency: five case studies

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Stochastic efficiency is evaluated in five case studies: driven Brownian motion, effusion with a thermo-chemical and thermo-velocity gradient, a quantum dot and a model for information to work conversion.
