intensively investigated in recent years. Here, we apply quantum master equation combined …

Quantum information engines can advantageously convert information into work, usually
through a feedback mechanism operated by a Maxwell demon. In principle, this opens …

The role of completely positive–indivisibility (CP-indivisibility) and incompatibility as
valuable resources for various information-theoretic tasks is widely acknowledged. This …

We examine the role of diagnostic quantum measurements on the work statistics of a finite-
