Fundamental aspects of steady-state conversion of heat to work at the nanoscale

G Benenti, G Casati, K Saito, RS Whitney - Physics Reports, 2017 - Elsevier
In recent years, the study of heat to work conversion has been re-invigorated by
nanotechnology. Steady-state devices do this conversion without any macroscopic moving …

Anomalous heat transport in classical many-body systems: Overview and perspectives

G Benenti, S Lepri, R Livi - Frontiers in Physics, 2020 - frontiersin.org
In this review paper we survey recent achievements in anomalous heat diffusion, while
highlighting open problems and research perspectives. First, we briefly recall the main …

Heat transport in low-dimensional systems

A Dhar - Advances in Physics, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
Recent results on theoretical studies of heat conduction in low-dimensional systems are
presented. These studies are on simple, yet non-trivial, models. Most of these are classical …

Chaos and complexity of quantum motion

T Prosen - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
The problem of characterizing the complexity of quantum dynamics—in particular of locally
interacting chains of quantum particles—will be reviewed and discussed from several …

Diffusion in the Lorentz gas

CP Dettmann - Communications in Theoretical Physics, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
The Lorentz gas, a point particle making mirror-like reflections from an extended collection of
scatterers, has been a useful model of deterministic diffusion and related statistical …

Onsager reciprocal relations with broken time-reversal symmetry

R Luo, G Benenti, G Casati, J Wang - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We provide analytical and numerical evidence that Onsager reciprocal relations remain
valid for systems with broken time-reversal symmetry as is typically the case when a generic …

Nonequilibrium discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation

S Iubini, S Lepri, A Politi - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2012 - APS
We study nonequilibrium steady states of the one-dimensional discrete nonlinear
Schrödinger equation. This system can be regarded as a minimal model for the stationary …

Magnetically induced thermal rectification

G Casati, C Mejía-Monasterio, T Prosen - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
We consider far from equilibrium heat transport in chaotic billiard chains with noninteracting
charged particles in the presence of nonuniform transverse magnetic field. If half of the chain …
