Nonequilibrium mesoscopic superconductors in a fluctuational regime
  We show that there exist a class of nonequilibrium systems for which a non-equilibrium analog of the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) functional can be constructed and propose the procedure for its derivation. As an example, we consider a small superconductor island of the size less than the coherence length in a stationary nonequlibrium state. We find the GL expansion of the free energy functional of such a system and analyze the dependence of the coefficients of the expansion upon the external drive and the non-equilibrium distribution functions.
