Nonanalytic nonequilibrium field theory: Stochastic reheating of the Ising model

Many-body nonequilibrium steady states can be described by a Landau-Ginzburg theory if one allows nonanalytic terms in the potential. We substantiate this claim by working out the case of the Ising magnet in contact with a thermal bath and undergoing stochastic reheating: It is reset to a paramagnet...
