The seek for a new universal formulation for describing various non-equilibrium processes is a central task of modern non-equilibrium thermodynamics. In this paper, a novel steady-state thermodynamic formalism was established for general Markov processes described by the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation. Furthermore, corresponding formalisms of steady-state thermodynamics for master equation and Fokker-Planck equation could be rigorously derived in mathematics. To be concrete, we proved that: 1) in the limit of continuous time, the steady-state thermodynamic formalism for the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation fully agrees with that for the master equation; 2) a similar one-to-one correspondence could be established rigorously between the master equation and Fokker-Planck equation in the limit of large system size; 3) when a Markov process is restrained to one-step jump, the steady-state thermodynamic formalism for the Fokker-Planck equation with discrete state variables also goes to that for master equations, as the discretization step gets smaller and smaller. Our analysis indicated that, with respect to the steady state, general Markov processes admit a unified and self-consistent non-equilibrium thermodynamic formulation, regardless of underlying detailed models.

Electrical circuits with transient elements can be good examples of systems where non--steady irreversible processes occur, so in the same way as a steady state energy converter, we use the formal construction of the first order irreversible thermody
namic (FOIT) to describe the energetics of these circuits. In this case, we propose an isothermic model of two meshes with transient and passive elements, besides containing two voltage sources (which can be functions of time); this is a non--steady energy converter model. Through the Kirchhoff equations, we can write the circuit phenomenological equations. Then, we apply an integral transformation to linearise the dynamic equations and rewrite them in algebraic form, but in the frequency space. However, the same symmetry for steady states appears (cross effects). Thus, we can study the energetic performance of this converter model by means of two parameters: the force ratio and the coupling degre. Furthermore, it is possible to obtain the characteristic functions (dissipation function, power output, efficiency, etc.). They allow us to establish a simple optimal operation regime of this energy converter. As an example, we obtain the converter behavior for the maximum efficient power regime (MPE).
We derive the generalized Fokker-Planck equation associated with a Langevin equation driven by arbitrary additive white noise. We apply our result to study the distribution of symmetric and asymmetric L{e}vy flights in an infinitely deep potential we
ll. The fractional Fokker-Planck equation for L{e}vy flights is derived and solved analytically in the steady state. It is shown that L{e}vy flights are distributed according to the beta distribution, whose probability density becomes singular at the boundaries of the well. The origin of the preferred concentration of flying objects near the boundaries in nonequilibrium systems is clarified.
We present a principled approach for estimating the matrix of microscopic rates among states of a Markov process, given only its stationary state population distribution and a single average global kinetic observable. We adapt Maximum Caliber, a vari
ational principle in which a path entropy is maximized over the distribution of all the possible trajectories, subject to basic kinetic constraints and some average dynamical observables. We show that this approach leads, under appropriate conditions, to the continuous-time master equation and a Smoluchowski-like equation that is valid for both equilibrium and non-equilibrium stationary states. We illustrate the method by computing the solvation dynamics of water molecules from molecular dynamics trajectories.
We study the steady state of the abelian sandpile models with stochastic toppling rules. The particle addition operators commute with each other, but in general these operators need not be diagonalizable. We use their abelian algebra to determine the
ir eigenvalues, and the Jordan block structure. These are then used to determine the probability of different configurations in the steady state. We illustrate this procedure by explicitly determining the numerically exact steady state for a one dimensional example, for systems of size $le12$, and also study the density profile in the steady state.
Random dynamical systems (RDS) evolve by a dynamical rule chosen independently with a certain probability, from a given set of deterministic rules. These dynamical systems in an interval reach a steady state with a unique well-defined probability den
sity only under certain conditions, namely Pelikans criterion. We investigate and characterize the steady state of a bounded RDS when Pelikans criterion breaks down. In this regime, the system is attracted to a common fixed point (CFP) of all the maps, which is attractive for at least one of the constituent mapping functions. If there are many such fixed points, the initial density is shared among the CFPs; we provide a mapping of this problem with the well known hitting problem of random walks and find the relative weights at different CFPs. The weights depend upon the initial distribution.
