Abstract
Singular behavior and the formation of plateaus in the probability distribution in a nonadiabatically driven system are investigated numerically in the weak noise limit. A simple extension of the recently introduced logarithmic susceptibility theory is proposed to construct an approximation of the nonequilibrium potential that is valid throughout whole of the phase space.
