quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

Energy dynamics, heat production and heat–work conversion with qubits: toward the development of quantum machines

L Arrachea - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an overview of recent advances in the study of energy dynamics and
mechanisms for energy conversion in qubit systems with special focus on realizations in …

Thermodynamic unification of optimal transport: Thermodynamic uncertainty relation, minimum dissipation, and thermodynamic speed limits

T Van Vu, K Saito - Physical Review X, 2023 - APS
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 …

Current fluctuations in open quantum systems: Bridging the gap between quantum continuous measurements and full counting statistics

GT Landi, MJ Kewming, MT Mitchison, PP Potts - PRX Quantum, 2024 - APS
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 …

Unraveling the large deviation statistics of Markovian open quantum systems

F Carollo, RL Jack, JP Garrahan - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
We analyze dynamical large deviations of quantum trajectories in Markovian open quantum
systems in their full generality. We derive a quantum level-2.5 large deviation principle for …

Nonequilibrium fluctuations in quantum heat engines: theory, example, and possible solid state experiments

M Campisi, J Pekola, R Fazio - New Journal of Physics, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We study stochastic energetic exchanges in quantum heat engines. Due to
microreversibility, these obey a fluctuation relation, called the heat engine fluctuation …

C Elouard, DA Herrera-Martí, M Clusel… - npj Quantum …, 2017 - nature.com
This article sets up a new formalism to investigate stochastic thermodynamics in the
quantum regime, where stochasticity and irreversibility primarily come from quantum …

Stabilizing open quantum batteries by sequential measurements

S Gherardini, F Campaioli, F Caruso, FC Binder - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
A quantum battery is a work reservoir that stores energy in quantum degrees of freedom.
When immersed in an environment, an open quantum battery needs to be stabilized against …

Work measurement as a generalized quantum measurement

AJ Roncaglia, F Cerisola, JP Paz - Physical review letters, 2014 - APS
We present a new method to measure the work w performed on a driven quantum system
and to sample its probability distribution P (w). The method is based on a simple fact that …

Speed limit for open quantum systems

K Funo, N Shiraishi, K Saito - New Journal of Physics, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the quantum speed limit for open quantum systems described by the Lindblad
master equation. The obtained inequality shows a trade-off relation between the operation …
