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 ...

Landauer’s Principle in a Quantum Szilard Engine without Maxwell’s Demon
Entropy, 2020 Quantum Szilard engine constitutes an adequate interplay of thermodynamics, information theory and quantum mechanics. Szilard engines are in general operated by a Maxwell’s Demon where Landauer’s principle resolves the apparent paradoxes ...

Landauer’s Principle in Repeated Interaction Systems [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2016 We study Landauer's Principle for Repeated Interaction Systems (RIS) consisting of a reference quantum system $\mathcal{S}$ in contact with a structured environment $\mathcal{E}$ made of a chain of independent quantum probes; $\mathcal{S}$ interacts with each probe, for a fixed duration, in sequence. We first adapt Landauer's lower bound, which relates

, 2011 Landauer's Principle asserts that there is an unavoidable cost in thermodynamic entropy creation when data is erased. It is usually derived from incorrect assumptions, most notably, that erasure must compress the phase space of a memory device or that ...

Generalizing Landauer’s principle [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2009 In a recent paper [Mar05] it is argued that to properly understand the thermodynamics of Landauer's Principle it is necessary extend the concept of logical operations to include indeterministic operations. Here we examine the thermodynamics of such operations in more detail, extending the work of Landuaer[Lan61] to include indeterministic operations ...

Physical Review X, 2023 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 thermodynamics, the ideas of thermodynamics have been generalized to small

Spontaneous Fluctuation-Symmetry Breaking and the Landauer Principle [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Physics, 2022 AbstractWe study the problem of the energetic cost of information erasure by looking at it through the lens of the Jarzynski equality. We observe that the Landauer bound, $$\langle W \rangle \ge kT \ln 2$$ ⟨ W ⟩ ≥ k

Maxwell’s Demon, Szilard Engine and Landauer Principle [PDF]
Resonance, 2021 The second law of thermodynamics is probabilistic in nature. Its formulation requires that the state of a system be described by a probability distribution. A natural question, thereby, arises as to whether a prior knowledge about the state of the system affects the second law.

Dynamical randomness, information, and Landauer's principle [PDF]
EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2007 New concepts from nonequilibrium thermodynamics are used to show that Landauer's principle can be understood in terms of time asymmetry in the dynamical randomness generated by the physical process of the erasure of digital information. In this way, Landauer's principle is generalized, showing that the dissipation associated with the erasure of a ...
