Large Fluctuations in a Periodically Driven Dynamical System

From MaRDI portal





The authors deal with an overdampled system driven by a periodic force \(K(q,\varphi)\) and white noise \(\xi(t)\) of the form \[ \begin{aligned} \dot q&= K(q,\varphi)+ \xi(t), \quad K(q,\varphi)= K(q,\varphi+ 2\pi),\\ \varphi&= \varphi(t)= \omega t+\varphi_0, \quad \langle \xi(t), \xi(t')\rangle= D\delta(t-t'). \end{aligned} \tag{1} \] The authors discuss optimal paths for large fluctuations for (1) and present some experimental results demonstrating the existence of a pattern of optimal paths in a thermally nonequilibrium system.
