A known aspect of the Clausius inequality is that an equilibrium system subjected to a
squeezing dS< 0 of its entropy must release at least an amount| đ Q|= T| dS| of heat. This …

The Landauer principle states that any logically irreversible information processing must be
accompanied by dissipation into the environment. In this Letter, we investigate the heat …

The heat generated by computations is not only an obstacle to circuit miniaturization but also
a fundamental aspect of the relationship between information theory and thermodynamics …

The sensitivity of entanglement to the thermal and squeezed reservoirs' parameters is
investigated regarding entanglement decay and what is called sudden-death of …

Landauer's principle states that in erasing one bit of information, on average, at least k BT ln
(2) energy is dissipated into the environment (where k B is Boltzmann's constant and T is the …

There are several inequalities in physics which limit how well we can process physical
systems to achieve some intended goal, including the second law of thermodynamics …

The Clausius inequality has deep implications for reversibility and the arrow of time.
Quantum theory is able to extend this result for closed systems by inspecting the trajectory of …

One of the outstanding challenges to information processing is the eloquent suppression of
energy consumption in the execution of logic operations. The Landauer principle sets an …

A central task in finite-time thermodynamics is to minimize the excess or dissipated work W
diss when manipulating the state of a system immersed in a thermal bath. We consider this …

It is a central question in quantum thermodynamics to determine how irreversible is a
process that transforms an initial state ρ to a final state σ and whether such irreversibility can …
