We investigate what can be learned from multi-point correlations of stochastic particle trajectories, i.e., correlations that relate the particle position at multiple points in time. One such observable was recently introduced as the Mean Back Relaxation [1]. We discuss its properties and the information that can be obtained from it, as, e.g., regards time reversal symmetry [2,3]. We exemplify...
I will discuss paradigmatic examples of a tracer trapped in a harmonic potential and coupled to nonequilibrium baths: In particular, the tracer equation of motion and its relaxation function, for which this equation is averaged under an initial tracer position. For equilibrium, the tracer-bath force on average vanishes, a well known consequence of Boltzmann statistics. If tracer and bath are...
Recent pioneering experiments on non-Markovian dynamics done, e.g., for active matter have demonstrated that our theoretical understanding of this challenging yet hot topic is rather incomplete and there is a wealth of phenomena still awaiting discovery. It is related to the fact that typically for simplification the Markovian approximation is employed and as a consequence the memory is...
