On Norton’s “…Shook…” and Myrvold’s “Shakin’…”
Philosophy of Physics, 2023 Norton’s and Myrvold’s recent analyses of fluctuations and Landauer’s principle are compatible.

Landauer's principle in the quantum domain [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010 Recent papers discussing thermodynamic processes in strongly coupled quantum systems claim a violation of Landauer's principle and imply a violation of the second law of thermodynamics. If true, this would have powerful consequences.

Endoreversible Models for the Thermodynamics of Computing
Entropy, 2020 Landauer’s principle says that, in principle, a computation can be performed without consumption of work, provided no information is erased during the computational process. This principle can be introduced into endoreversible models of thermodynamics.

Landauer Versus Nernst: What is the True Cost of Cooling a Quantum System?
PRX Quantum, 2023 Thermodynamics connects our knowledge of the world to our capability to manipulate and thus to control it. This crucial role of control is exemplified by the third law of thermodynamics, Nernst’s unattainability principle, which states that infinite ...

An Explanation of the Landauer bound and its ineffectiveness with regard to multivalued logic
Technical Transactions, 2020 We discuss, using recent results on the thermodynamics of multivalued logic, the difficulties and pitfalls of how to apply the Landauer’s principle to thermodynamic computer memory models. The presentation is based on Szilard’s version of Maxwell’s demon

Gustav Landauer’s Anarchism as Rejection of Death [PDF]
, 2023 UIDB/00183/2020 UIDP/00183/2020This paper examines Gustav Landauer’s mystical anarchism, focusing on the concept of overcoming death as a core element of his thought.

Decoherence and Landauer’s principle in qubit-cavity quantum-field-theory interaction
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 We consider quantum decoherence and Landauer’s principle in qubit-cavity quantum field theory (QFT) interaction, treating the qubit as the system and cavity QFT as the environment. In particular, we investigate the changes that occur in the system with a

Eaters of the Lotus: Landauer's Principle and the Return of Maxwell's Demon [PDF]
, 2004 Landauer’s principle is the loosely formulated notion that the erasure of n bits of information must always incur a cost of k ln n in thermodynamic entropy.

Refining Landauer’s Stack: Balancing Error and Dissipation When Erasing Information [PDF]
, 2021 Nonequilibrium information thermodynamics determines the minimum energy dissipation to reliably erase memory under time-symmetric control protocols. We demonstrate that its bounds are tight and so show that the costs overwhelm those implied by Landauer’s

Landauer’s Principle in Multipartite Open Quantum System Dynamics [PDF]
, 2015 We investigate the link between information and thermodynamics embodied by Landauer’s principle in the open dynamics of a multipartite quantum system.
