TL;DR: The properties of driven free diffusion in the underdamped regime are analyzed and it is shown that it inherently violates the overdamped TUR for finite times and a bound for one-dimensional driven diffusion in a potential is conjecture based on the result for free diffusion.

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of state-of-the-art experimental tools and theoretical modeling is used to gain valuable knowledge of the interaction between membrane-membrane or membrane-substrate interaction.

TL;DR: In this article, a brief introduction into the principles of stochastic thermodynamics and some of its recent ramifications from a personal perspective is presented. But the focus of this paper is on the properties of the trajectories taken from either a time-dependent or non-equilibrium steady state ensemble.

Abstract: We consider a curvature model for bilayer vesicles with an area-difference elasticity or non-local bending-energy term Such a model interpolates between the bilayer-couple and spontaneous-curvature models We report preliminary results for the budding transition The shape transformation between the dumbbell and the pear phases can be continuous or discontinuous depending on the ratio of the non-local to the local bending rigidities

TL;DR: In simulations, driven lattice gases satisfy surprisingly simple thermodynamic laws, such as the zeroth law and the fluctuation-response relation between the particle-number fluctuation and the corresponding susceptibility remarkably well, but at higher densities, small but observable deviations occur.
