First we discuss the definition of the instantaneous current in interacting particle systems, in particular in mass-energy systems and we point out its role in the derivation of the hydrodynamics. Later we present some geometrical structures of the instantaneous current when the rates satisfy a common symmetry. These structures give some new ideas in non-gradient models and show new phenomenology in diffusive interacting particle systems. Specifically, we introduce models with vorticity and present some new perspectives on the link between the Green-Kubos formula and the hydrodynamics of non-gradient models.

The main subject of the thesis is the study of stationary nonequilibrium states trough the use of microscopic stochastic models that encode the physical interaction in the rules of Markovian dynamics for particles configurations. These models are known as interacting particles systems and are simple enough to be treated analytically but also complex enough to capture essential physical behaviours. The thesis is organized in two parts. The part 1 is devoted to the microscopic theory of the stationary states. We characterize these states developing some general structures that have an interest in themselves. In this part there is an interlude dedicated to discrete calculus on discrete manifolds with an exposition a little bit different to the one available in literature and some original definitions. The part 2 studies the problem macroscopically. In particular we consider the large deviations asymptotic behavior for a class of solvable one dimensional models of heat conduction. Both part 1 and 2 begin with an introduction of motivational character followed by an overview of the relevant results and a summary explaining the organization. Even tough the two parts are strictly connected they can be read independently after chapter 1. The material is presented in such a way to be self-consistent as much as possible.
Many fluctuating systems consist of macroscopic structures in addition to noisy signals. Thus, for this class of fluctuating systems, the scaling behaviors are very complicated. Such phenomena are quite commonly observed in Nature, ranging from physics, chemistry, geophysics, even to molecular biology and physiology. In this paper, we take an extensive analytical study on the ``generalized detrended fluctuation analysis method. For continuous fluctuating systems in arbitrary dimensions, we not only derive the explicit and exact expression of macroscopic structures, but also obtain the exact relations between the detrended variance functions and the correlation function. Besides, we undertake a general scaling analysis, applicable for this class of fluctuating systems in any dimensions. Finally, as an application, we discuss some important examples in interfacial superroughening phenomena.
A stochastic process with movement, return, and rest phases is considered in this paper. For the movement phase, the particles move following the dynamics of Gaussian process or ballistic type of Levy walk, and the time of each movement is random. For the return phase, the particles will move back to the origin with a constant velocity or acceleration or under the action of a harmonic force after each movement, so that this phase can also be treated as a non-instantaneous resetting. After each return, a rest with a random time at the origin follows. The asymptotic behaviors of the mean squared displacements with different kinds of movement dynamics, random resting time, and returning are discussed. The stationary distributions are also considered when the process is localized. Besides, the mean first passage time is considered when the dynamic of movement phase is Brownian motion.
Anomalies in the flux-ratios of the images of quadruply-lensed quasars have been used to constrain the nature of dark matter. Assuming these lensing perturbations are caused by dark matter haloes, it is possible to constrain the mass of a hypothetical Warm Dark Matter (WDM) particle to be $m_chi > 5.2$ keV. However, the assumption that perturbations are only caused by DM haloes might not be correct as other structures, such as filaments and pancakes, exist and make up a significant fraction of the mass in the universe, ranging between 5$%$ -- 50$%$ depending on the dark matter model. Using novel fragmentation-free simulations of 1 and 3keV WDM cosmologies we study these non-halo structures and estimate their impact on flux-ratio observations. We find that these structures display sharp density gradients with short correlation lengths, and can contribute more to the lensing signal than all haloes up to the half-mode mass combined, thus reducing the differences expected among WDM models. We estimate that this becomes especially important for any flux-ratio based constraint sensitive to haloes of mass $M sim 10^8 M_odot$. We conclude that accounting for all types structures in strong-lensing observations is required to improve the accuracy of current and future constraints.
We use fluctuating hydrodynamics to analyze the dynamical properties in the non-equilibrium steady state of a diffusive system coupled with reservoirs. We derive the two-time correlations of the density and of the current in the hydrodynamic limit in terms of the diffusivity and the mobility. Within this hydrodynamic framework we discuss a generalization of the fluctuation dissipation relation in a non-equilibrium steady state where the response function is expressed in terms of the two-time correlations. We compare our results to an exact solution of the symmetric exclusion process. This exact solution also allows one to directly verify the fluctuating hydrodynamics equation.
