TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report, extend, and interpret much of our current understanding relating to theories of noise-activated escape, for which many of the notable contributions are originating from the communities both of physics and of physical chemistry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the constructive role of Brownian motion is exemplified for various physical and technological setups, which are inspired by the cellular molecular machinery: the working principles and characteristics of stylized devices are discussed to show how fluctuations, either thermal or extrinsic, can be used to control diffusive particle transport.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the behavior of driven tunneling in quantum systems is presented, and a variety of tools suitable for tackling the quantum dynamics of explicitly time-dependent Schrodinger equations are introduced.

TL;DR: In this article, a toolkit of familiar electronic analogs for use of phononics is put forward, i.e., phononic devices are described which act as thermal diodes, thermal transistors, thermal logic gates, and thermal memories.

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-contained exposition of the theory and applications of quantum fluctuation relations is presented, with a focus on work fluctuation relation for transiently driven closed or open quantum systems.
