The quantum speed limit is a fundamental upper bound on the speed of quantum evolution. However, the actual mathematical expression of this fundamental limit depends on the …
The work fluctuation theorem (FT) is a symmetry connecting the moment generating functions (MGFs) of the work extracted in a given process and in its time-reversed …
Quantum mechanics lies at the heart of chemistry. It is impossible to understand the structure of the Periodic Table, chemical bonding patterns, free energies of chemical reactions …

In this paper, we present the theoretical framework of quantum speed limits (QSLs) in terms of trajectory ensembles in phase space. This indicates that the QSL can be thought of as the …

Quasiclassical techniques constitute a promising route to approximate quantum dynamics based on classical trajectories starting from a quantum-mechanically correct distribution …
The Wigner function is a useful tool for exploring the transition between quantum and classical dynamics, as well as the behavior of quantum chaotic systems. Evolving the …

It is shown how quantum mechanical time correlation functions [defined, eg, in Eq.(1.1)] can be expressed, without approximation, in the same form as the linearized approximation of …
We show that radiation from complex and inherently random but correlated wave sources can be modelled efficiently by using an approach based on the Wigner distribution function …
