Nonequilibrium fluctuation theorems from equilibrium fluctuations

A system can be driven to nonequilibrium behavior in the presence of thermodynamic imbalances in its environment, such as temperature or chemical potential differences. In derivations of far-from-equilibrium fluctuation theorems, such imbalances are typically modeled as fixed, externally imposed the...
