We focus on a paradigmatic two-dimensional model of a nanoscale heat engine, - the so-called Brownian gyrator - whose stochastic dynamics is described by a pair of coupled Langevin equations with different temperature noise terms. This model is known to produce a curl-carrying non-equilibrium steady-state with persistent angular rotations. We generalize the original model introducing constant forces doing work on the gyrator, for which we derive exact asymmetry relations, that are reminiscent of the standard fluctuation relations. Unlike the latter, our relations concern instantaneous and not time averaged values of the observables of interest. We investigate the full two-dimensional dynamics as well as the dynamics projected on the $x$- and $y$-axes, so that information about the state of the system can be obtained from just a part of its degrees of freedom. Such a state is characterized by effective temperatures that can be measured in nanoscale devices, but do not have a thermodynamic nature. Remarkably, the effective temperatures appearing in full dynamics are distinctly different from the ones emerging in its projections, confirming that they are not thermodynamic quantities, although they precisely characterize the state of the system.

We investigate various possible definitions of an effective temperature for a particularly simple nonequilibrium stationary system, namely a heated Brownian particle suspended in a fluid. The effective temperature based on the fluctuation dissipation
ratio depends on the time scale under consideration, so that a simple Langevin description of the heated particle is impossible. The short and long time limits of this effective temperature are shown to be consistent with the temperatures estimated from the kinetic energy and Einstein relation, respectively. The fluctuation theorem provides still another definition of the temperature, which is shown to coincide with the short time value of the fluctuation dissipation ratio.
We study the stationary dynamics of an active interacting Brownian particle system. We measure the violations of the fluctuation dissipation theorem, and the corresponding effective temperature, in a locally resolved way. Quite naturally, in the homo
geneous phases the diffusive properties and effective temperature are also homogeneous. Instead, in the inhomogeneous phases (close to equilibrium and within the MIPS sector) the particles can be separated in two groups with different diffusion properties and effective temperatures. Notably, at fixed activity strength the effective temperatures in the two phases remain distinct and approximately constant within the MIPS region, with values corresponding to the ones of the whole system at the boundaries of this sector of the phase diagram. We complement the study of the globally averaged properties with the theoretical and numerical characterization of the fluctuation distributions of the single particle diffusion, linear response, and effective temperature in the homogeneous and inhomogeneous phases. We also distinguish the behavior of the (time-delayed) effective temperature from the (instantaneous) kinetic temperature, showing that the former is independent on the friction coefficient.
We consider a model of a two-dimensional molecular machine - called Brownian gyrator - that consists of two coordinates coupled to each other and to separate heat baths at temperatures respectively $T_x$ and $T_y$. We consider the limit in which one
component is passive, because its bath is cold, $T_x to 0$, while the second is in contact with a hot bath, $T_y > 0$, hence it entrains the passive component in a stochastic motion. We derive an asymmetry relation as a function of time, from which time dependent effective temperatures can be obtained for both components. We find that the effective temperature of the passive element tends to a constant value, which is a fraction of $T_y$, while the effective temperature of the driving component grows without bounds, in fact exponentially in time, as the steady-state is approached.
The condition of thermal equilibrium simplifies the theoretical treatment of fluctuations as found in the celebrated Einsteins relation between mobility and diffusivity for Brownian motion. Several recent theories relax the hypothesis of thermal equi
librium resulting in at least two main scenarios. With well separated timescales, as in aging glassy systems, equilibrium Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem applies at each scale with its own effective temperature. With mixed timescales, as for example in active or granular fluids or in turbulence, temperature is no more well-defined, the dynamical nature of fluctuations fully emerges and a Generalized Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem (GFDT) applies. Here, we study experimentally the mixed timescale regime by studying fluctuations and linear response in the Brownian motion of a rotating intruder immersed in a vibro-fluidized granular medium. Increasing the packing fraction, the system is moved from a dilute single-timescale regime toward a denser multiple-timescale stage. Einsteins relation holds in the former and is violated in the latter. The violation cannot be explained in terms of effective temperatures, while the GFDT is able to impute it to the emergence of a strong coupling between the intruder and the surrounding fluid. Direct experimental measurements confirm the development of spatial correlations in the system when the density is increased.
We present a comprehensive study of the linear response of interacting underdamped Brownian particles to simple shear flow. We collect six different routes for computing the response, two of which are based on the symmetry of the considered system an
d observable with respect to the shear axes. We include the extension of the Green-Kubo relation to underdamped cases, which shows two unexpected additional terms. These six computational methods are applied to investigate the relaxation of the response towards the steady state for different observables, where interesting effects due to interactions and a finite particle mass are observed. Moreover, we compare the different response relations in terms of their statistical efficiency, identifying their relative demand on experimental measurement time or computational resources in computer simulations. Finally, several measures of breakdown of linear response theory for larger shear rates are discussed.
