Thermodynamic signatures of genuinely multipartite entanglement

S Puliyil, M Banik, M Alimuddin - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
The theory of bipartite entanglement shares profound similarities with thermodynamics. In
this Letter we extend this connection to multipartite quantum systems where entanglement …

Role of quantum coherence in thermodynamics

G Gour - Prx quantum, 2022 - APS
We find necessary and sufficient conditions to determine the interconvertibility of quantum
systems under time-translation covariant evolution, and use it to solve several problems in …
