Thermodynamics of information
By its very nature, the second law of thermodynamics is probabilistic, in that its formulation
requires a probabilistic description of the state of a system. This raises questions about the …

Quantum and information thermodynamics: A unifying framework based on repeated interactions
We expand the standard thermodynamic framework of a system coupled to a thermal
reservoir by considering a stream of independently prepared units repeatedly put into …

Theory of cross phenomena and their coefficients beyond Onsager theorem
ZK Liu - Materials Research Letters, 2022 - Taylor & Francis
Cross phenomena, representing responses of a system to external stimuli, are ubiquitous
from quantum to macro scales. The Onsager theorem is often used to describe them, stating …

Irreversibility in active matter systems: Fluctuation theorem and mutual information
We consider a Brownian particle which, in addition to being in contact with a thermal bath, is
driven by fluctuating forces which stem from active processes in the system, such as self …

Observing a quantum Maxwell demon at work
In apparent contradiction to the laws of thermodynamics, Maxwell's demon is able to
cyclically extract work from a system in contact with a thermal bath, exploiting the information …

Extracting work from quantum measurement in Maxwell's demon engines
The essence of both classical and quantum engines is to extract useful energy (work) from
stochastic energy sources, eg, thermal baths. In Maxwell's demon engines, work extraction …

Estimating entropy production by machine learning of short-time fluctuating currents
Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) are the inequalities which give lower bounds
on the entropy production rate using only the mean and the variance of fluctuating currents …

Stochastic time evolution, information geometry, and the Cramér-Rao bound
We investigate the connection between the time evolution of averages of stochastic
quantities and the Fisher information and its induced statistical length. As a consequence of …
