A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and
quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

In equilibrium thermodynamics, there exists a well-established connection between
dynamical fluctuations of a physical system and the dissipation of its energy into an …

Thermodynamics serves as a universal means for studying physical systems from an energy
perspective. In recent years, with the establishment of the field of stochastic and quantum …

Continuously measured quantum systems are characterized by an output current, in the form
of a stochastic and correlated time series, which conveys crucial information about the …

The first comprehensive graduate-level introduction to stochastic thermodynamics
Stochastic thermodynamics is a well-defined subfield of statistical physics that aims to …

Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum
systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …

Heat engines should ideally have large power output, operate close to Carnot efficiency and
show constancy, ie, exhibit only small fluctuations in this output. For steady-state heat …

We summarize in this article the experiments which have been performed to test the
theoretical findings in stochastic thermodynamics such as fluctuation theorem, Jarzynski …

Active matter encompasses systems whose individual constituents dissipate energy to exert
propelling forces on their environment. These systems exhibit dynamical phenomena with …

The inference of thermodynamic quantities from the description of an only partially
accessible physical system is a central challenge in stochastic thermodynamics. A common …
