Fluctuation relation, fluctuation theorem, thermostats and entropy creation in nonequilibrium statistical physics

Abstract

A unified viewpoint is presented in the margin to the Conference “Work, dissipation and fluctuations in nonequilibrium physics” Bruxelles 22–25 March, 2006, where the topics were discussed by various authors and it became clear the need that the very different viewpoints be consistently presented by their proponents.
