Nonequilibrium microcanonical and canonical ensembles and their equivalence.

摘要: Generalizations of the microcanonical and canonical ensembles for paths Markov processes have been proposed recently to describe statistical properties nonequilibrium systems driven in steady states. Here, we propose a theory these that unifies generalizes earlier results show how it is fundamentally related large deviation systems. Using this theory, provide conditions equivalence ensembles, generalizing those found equilibrium systems, construct physical generate rederive simple way known new product rules their transition rates. A diffusion model used illustrate results.
