 "Fluctuations and large deviations in non equilibrium  systems"

Martedi' 21 Ottobre Ore 14.30

Abstract:

 Studies of non-equilibrium  fluctuations have held a center stage during the
 past few decades of the development of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics.
 Indeed,  macroscopic fluctuations are supposed to display some  universal
 behaviour, regardless of the precise  microscopic dynamics of the  process
 under study. In this talk,  we shall consider a few examples of non-equilibrium
 fluctuations: the  particle current in an interacting particle system,
 the diffusion of a tracer in a one-dimensional gas of
 particles  with excluded mutual passage and the melting of an Ising quadrant.
 These different problems will be analyzed  quantitatively with the help
 of the  macroscopic fluctuation theory.
