Langevin Dynamics with Variable Coefficients and Nonconservative Forces: From Stationary States to Numerical Methods

Langevin Dynamics with Variable Coefficients and Nonconservative Forces: From Stationary States to Numerical Methods

Langevin dynamics is a versatile stochastic model used in biology, chemistry, engineering, physics and computer science. Traditionally, in thermal equilibrium, one assumes (i) the forces are given as the gradient of a potential and (ii) a fluctuation-dissipation relation holds between stochastic and...
