Fluctuations of current in nonstationary diffusive lattice gases
We employ the macroscopic fluctuation theory to study fluctuations of integrated current in one-dimensional lattice gases with a steplike initial density profile. We analytically determine the variance of the current fluctuations for a class of diffusive processes with a density-independent diffusion coefficient. Our calculations rely on a perturbation theory around …
