read the original abstract

A recent result, relating the (irreversible) work performed on a system during a non-quasistatic process, to the Helmholtz free energy difference between two equilibrium states of the system, is discussed. A proof of this result is given for the special case when the evolution of the system in question is modelled by a Langevin equation in configuration space.

Scaling flow-based approaches for topology sampling in $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ gauge theory
hep-lat 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

Out-of-equilibrium simulations with open-to-periodic boundary switching plus a tailored stochastic normalizing flow enable efficient topology sampling in the continuum limit of four-dimensional SU(3) Yang-Mills theory.
