Abstract

We study by Montecarlo simulation the non-equilibrium stationary behavior of a three-dimensional stochastic lattice gas with reversible kinetic constraints and in diffusive contact with two particle reservoirs at different chemical potential. When one of the boundaries is placed in the glassy phase, the statistics of entropy production fluctuations driven by the chemical potential gradient satisfy the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem provided that an effective entropy production is introduced.
