| contents | We investigate the behaviour of a family of entropy production functionals associated to stochastic differential equations of the form $\mathrm{d} X_s = -\nabla V(X_s) \, \mathrm{d} s + b(X_s) \, \mathrm{d} s + \sqrt{2ε} \, \mathrm{d} W_s $, where $b$ is a globally Lipschitz nonconservative vector field keeping the system out of equilibrium, with emphasis on the large-time limit and then the vanishing-noise limit. Different members of the family correspond to different choices of boundary terms. Our analysis yields a law of large numbers and a local large deviation principle which does not depend on the choice of boundary terms and which exhibits a Gallavotti--Cohen symmetry. We use techniques from the theory of semigroups and from semiclassical analysis to reduce the description of the asymptotic behaviour of the functional to the study of the leading eigenvalue of a quadratic approximation of a deformation of the infinitesimal generator near critical points of $V$. |
