Proof of the finite-time thermodynamic uncertainty relation for steady-state currents

JM Horowitz, TR Gingrich - Physical Review E, 2017 - APS
The thermodynamic uncertainty relation offers a universal energetic constraint on the
relative magnitude of current fluctuations in nonequilibrium steady states. However, it has …

Discrete-time thermodynamic uncertainty relation

K Proesmans, C Van den Broeck - Europhysics Letters, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org

Thermodynamic bounds on precision in ballistic multiterminal transport

K Brandner, T Hanazato, K Saito - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
For classical ballistic transport in a multiterminal geometry, we derive a universal trade-off
relation between total dissipation and the precision, at which particles are extracted from …

Assessing the validity of the thermodynamic uncertainty relation in quantum systems

BK Agarwalla, D Segal - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We examine the so-called thermodynamic uncertainty relation (TUR), a cost-precision trade-
off relationship in transport systems. Based on the fluctuation symmetry, we derive a …

Unified thermodynamic uncertainty relations in linear response

K Macieszczak, K Brandner, JP Garrahan - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) are recently established relations between the
relative uncertainty of time-integrated currents and entropy production in nonequilibrium …
