Quasiprobability Distribution for Heat Fluctuations in the Quantum Regime

open access: yesPRX Quantum, 2020
The standard approach to deriving fluctuation theorems fails to capture the effect of quantum correlation and coherence in the initial state of the system.

Jarzyski’s Equality and Crooks’ Fluctuation Theorem for General Markov Chains with Application to Decision-Making Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
We define common thermodynamic concepts purely within the framework of general Markov chains and derive Jarzynski’s equality and Crooks’ fluctuation theorem in this setup.

Nonequilibrium fluctuation theorems from equilibrium fluctuations

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
A system can be driven to nonequilibrium behavior in the presence of thermodynamic imbalances in its environment, such as temperature or chemical potential differences.

White-noise fluctuation theorem for Langevin dynamics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
Fluctuation theorems (FTs) based on time-reversal have provided remarkable insight into the non-equilibrium statistics of thermodynamic quantities like heat, work, and entropy production.

Nucleic Acid Thermodynamics Derived from Mechanical Unzipping Experiments

open access: yesLife, 2022
Force-spectroscopy techniques have led to significant progress in studying the physicochemical properties of biomolecules that are not accessible in bulk assays. The application of piconewton forces with laser optical tweezers to single nucleic acids has

Hidden slow degrees of freedom and fluctuation theorems: an analytically solvable model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2018
In some situations in stochastic thermodynamics not all relevant slow degrees of freedom are accessible. Consequently, one adopts an effective description involving only the visible degrees of freedom.

Jarzynski’s Equality, Fluctuation Theorems, and Variance Reduction: Mathematical Analysis and Numerical Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of statistical physics, 2018
In this paper, we study Jarzynski’s equality and fluctuation theorems for diffusion processes. While some of the results considered in the current work are known in the (mainly physics) literature, we review and generalize these nonequilibrium theorems ...

Entropy and Thermodynamic Second Laws: New Perspective - Stochastic Thermodynamics and Fluctuation Theorems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Physical Society, 2018
Recently, there has been a considerable progress on the issue of the thermodynamic second law, which is known as the law of entropy increase or irreversibility.

Fluctuation theorem in rachet system [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 2004
Fluctuation Theorem(FT) has been studied as far from equilibrium theorem, which relates the symmetry of entropy production. To investigate the application of this theorem, especially to biological physics, we consider the FT for tilted rachet system. Under, natural assumption, FT for steady state is derived.
