Multi-component molecular machines are ubiquitous in biology. We review recent progress
on describing their thermodynamic properties using autonomous bipartite Markovian …

We present an experimental realization of an autonomous Maxwell's demon, which extracts
microscopic information from a system and reduces its entropy by applying feedback. It is …

Classical and quantum electronic circuits provide ideal platforms to investigate stochastic
thermodynamics, and they have served as a stepping stone to realize Maxwell's Demons …

For a general thermodynamic system described as a Markov process, we prove a general
lower bound for dissipation in terms of the square of the heat current, thus establishing that …

The thermodynamic uncertainty relation (TUR) describes a trade-off relation between
nonequilibrium currents and entropy production and serves as a fundamental principle of …

In recent years, the unified theory of information and thermodynamics has been intensively
discussed in the context of stochastic thermodynamics. The unified theory reveals that …

Maxwell's demon is an imaginary entity that reduces the entropy of a system and generates
free energy in the system. About 150 years after its proposal, theoretical studies explained …

We investigate the tightness and optimality of thermodynamic-uncertainty-relation (TUR)-
type inequalities from two aspects, the choice of the Fisher information and the class of …

Abstract Systems driven away from thermal equilibrium constantly deliver entropy to their
environment. Determining this entropy production requires detailed information about the …

In the past three decades, the field of stochastic thermodynamics has been formulated and
highly developed. Stochastic thermodynamics extends the framework of thermodynamics …
