Similarities and differences between non-equilibrium steady states and time-periodic driving in diffusive systems

A system that violates detailed balance evolves asymptotically into a non-equilibrium steady state (NESS) with non-vanishing currents. Analogously, when detailed balance holds at any instant of time but the system is driven through time-periodic variations of external parameters, it evolves toward a...
