We investigate the motion of a colloidal particle driven out of equilibrium by an external torque. We use the molecular dynamics simulation that is alternative to the numerical integration approach based on the Langevin equation and is expected to mimic an experiment more realistically. We choose a heat bath composed of thousands of particles interacting to each other through the Lennard-Jones potential and impose the Langevin thermostat to maintain it in equilibrium. We prepare a single colloidal particle to interact with the particles of the heat bath also by the Lennard-Jones potential while any dissipative force and noise are not employed. We prepare the simulation protocol fit to the overdamped limit in real experiments by increasing the size and mass of the colloidal particle. We study the stochastic properties of the nonequilibrium fluctuations for work and heat produced incessantly in time. We accurately confirm the fluctuation theorem for the work production. We show our results to agree accurately with those from the numerical integration of the Langevin equation.

We investigate a motion of a colloid in a harmonic trap driven out of equilibrium by an external non-conservative force producing a torque in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. We find that steady state exists only for a proper range of parame
ters such as mass, viscosity coefficient, and stiffness of the harmonic potential, and the magnetic field, which is not observed in the overdamped limit. We derive the existence condition for the steady state. We examine the combined influence of the non-conservative force and the magnetic field on non-equilibrium characteristics such as non-Boltzmann steady-state probability distribution function, probability currents, entropy production, position-velocity correlation, and violation of fluctuation-dissipation relation.
We studied the dynamic response and stochastic resonance of kinetic Ising spin system (ISS), subject to the joint external field of weak sinusoidal modulation and stochastic white-noise, through solving the mean-field equation of motion based on Glau
ber dynamics. The periodically driven stochastic ISS shows the occurrence of characteristic stochastic resonance as well as nonequilibrium dynamic phase transition (NDPT) when the frequency and amplitude h0 of driving field, the temperature t of the system and noise intensity D attain a specific accordance in quantity. There exist in the system two typical dynamic phases, referred to as dynamic disordered paramagnetic and ordered ferromagnetic phases respectively, corresponding to zero and unit dynamic order parameter. We also figured out the NDPT boundary surface of the system which separates the dynamic paramagnetic and dynamic ferromagnetic phase in the 3D parameter space of h0~t~D. An intriguing dynamical ferromagnetic phase with an intermediate order parameter at 0.66 was revealed for the first time in the ISS subject to the perturbation of a joint determinant and stochastic field. Our primary result indicates that the intermediate order dynamical ferromagnetic phase is dynamic metastable in nature and owns a peculiar characteristic in its stability and response to external driving field when compared with fully order dynamic ferromagnetic phase.
We present a first-principles thermodynamic approach to provide an alternative to the Langevin equation by identifying the deterministic (no stochastic component) microforce F_{k,BP} acting on a nonequilibrium Brownian particle (BP) in its kth micros
tate m_{k}. (The prefix micro refers to microstate quantities and carry a suffix k.) The deterministic new equation is easier to solve using basic calculus. Being oblivious to the second law, F_{k,BP} does not always oppose motion but viscous dissipation emerges upon ensemble averaging. The equipartition theorem is always satisfied. We reproduce well-known results of the BP in equilibrium. We explain how the microforce is obtained directly from the mutual potential energy of interaction beween the BP and the medium after we average it over the medium so we only have to consider the particles in the BP. Our approach goes beyond the phenomenological and equilibrium approach of Langevin and unifies nonequilibrium viscous dissipation from mesoscopic to macroscopic scales and provides new insight into Brownian motion beyond Langevins and Einsteins formulation.
We study pattern formation, fluctuations and scaling induced by a growth-promoting active walker on an otherwise static interface. Active particles on an interface define a simple model for energy consuming proteins embedded in the plasma membrane, r
esponsible for membrane deformation and cell movement. In our model, the active particle overturns local valleys of the interface into hills, simulating growth, while itself sliding and seeking new valleys. In 1D, this overturn-slide-search dynamics of the active particle causes it to move superdiffusively in the transverse direction while pulling the immobile interface upwards. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we find an emerging tent-like mean profile developing with time, despite large fluctuations. The roughness of the interface follows scaling with the growth, dynamic and roughness exponents, derived using simple arguments as $beta=2/3, z=3/2, alpha=1/2$ respectively, implying a breakdown of the usual scaling law $beta = alpha/z$, owing to very local growth of the interface. The transverse displacement of the puller on the interface scales as $sim t^{2/3}$ and the probability distribution of its displacement is bimodal, with an unusual linear cusp at the origin. Both the mean interface pattern and probability distribution display scaling. A puller on a static 2D interface also displays aspects of scaling in the mean profile and probability distribution. We also show that a pusher on a fluctuating interface moves subdiffusively leading to a separation of time scale in pusher motion and interface response.
We study the ratchet effect of a damped relativistic particle driven by both asymmetric temporal bi-harmonic and time-periodic piecewise constant forces. This system can be formally solved for any external force, providing the ratchet velocity as a n
on-linear functional of the driving force. This allows us to explicitly illustrate the functional Taylor expansion formalism recently proposed for this kind of systems. The Taylor expansion reveals particularly useful to obtain the shape of the current when the force is periodic, piecewise constant. We also illustrate the somewhat counterintuitive effect that introducing damping may induce a ratchet effect. When the force is symmetric under time-reversal and the system is undamped, under symmetry principles no ratchet effect is possible. In this situation increasing damping generates a ratchet current which, upon increasing the damping coefficient eventually reaches a maximum and decreases toward zero. We argue that this effect is not specific of this example and should appear in any ratchet system with tunable damping driven by a time-reversible external force.
