Jarzynski's equality is a well-known result in statistical mechanics, relating free-energy differences between equilibrium ensembles with fluctuations in the work performed during non-equilibrium transformations from one ensemble to the other. In this work, an extension of this relation to lattice gauge theory will be presented, along with numerical results for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge model in three dimensions and for the equation of state in $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. Then, further applications will be discussed, in particular for the Schr\"odinger functional and for the study of QCD in strong magnetic fields.

Topological Strings in SU(3) Gauge Theory at Finite Temperature
Lattice Monte Carlo simulations show Z3 topological strings in finite-temperature SU(3) gauge theory have free energy dominated by domain walls and decay near the deconfinement transition.
