The method uses a Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation expansion of the generating function of the current, and can be extended to compute covariances of multiple currents. As an example of application of the method, we give numerical evidence for a simple relation [Eq.(5)] between the second and the fourth cumulants of the current in a symmetric exclusion process.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-11-04T10:37:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "small markovian systems", "exact computation", "current cumulants", "symmetric exclusion process", "higher order cumulants" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "AIP Conf.
