Abstract
Shape-dependent thermodynamics and nonlocal hydrodynamics are argued t o occur in dissipative steady states of driven diffusive systems. Thes e predictions are confirmed by numerical simulations. Unlike power-law correlations, these phenomena cannot be explained by a hypothesis of ''criticality.'' Instead, they require the effective Hamiltonian of th e system to contain very long-range potentials, making the invariant p robability measures formally ''non-Gibbsian.''
