Theory of chaotic Hamiltonian ratchets
Fully chaotic Hamiltonian ratchets were first demonstrated using an asymmetric double-well and a chirped sequence of kicks to provide temporal asymmetry - a necessary condition for directed transport to occur. The hallmark of this ratchet system is the saturation of the classical current to a finite...
