Zusammenfassung
Numerical observations on a Markov chain and on the continuous Markov process performed with a granular tracer show that the ‘usual’ fluctuation relation for a given observable is not verified for finite (but arbitrarily large) times. This suggests that some terms which are usually expected to be negligible, i.e.~‘border terms’ dependent only on initial and final states, in fact cannot be neglected. Furthermore, the Markov chain and the granular tracer behave in a quite similar fashion.
