The Holographic Model of Dark Energy and Thermodynamics of Non-Flat Accelerated Expanding Universe [PDF]
, 2006 Motivated by recent results on non-vanishing spatial curvature \cite{curve} we employ the holographic model of dark energy to investigate the validity of first and second laws of thermodynamics in non-flat (closed) universe enclosed by apparent horizon ...

Bayesian second law of thermodynamics
Physical Review E, 2016 We derive a generalization of the Second Law of Thermodynamics that uses Bayesian updates to explicitly incorporate the effects of a measurement of a system at some point in its evolution. By allowing an experimenter's knowledge to be updated by the measurement process, this formulation resolves a tension between the fact that the entropy of a ...

Deduction of Lorentz Transformations from Classical Thermodynamics
Entropy, 2015 The Lorentz transformations are obtained by assuming that the laws of classical thermodynamics are invariant under changes of inertial reference frames.

Quantum Thermodynamics: A Nonequilibrium Green's Functions Approach [PDF]
, 2015 We establish the foundations of a nonequilibrium theory of quantum thermodynamics for noninteracting open quantum systems strongly coupled to their reservoirs within the framework of the nonequilibrium Green functions (NEGF). The energy of the system and

Stochastic thermodynamics and hierarchy of fluctuation theorems with multiple reservoirs
New Journal of Physics, 2018 We reformulate stochastic thermodynamics in terms of noise realizations for Langevin systems in contact with multiple reservoirs and investigate the structure of the second laws of thermodynamics.

The first law of general quantum resource theories [PDF]
Quantum, 2020 We extend the tools of quantum resource theories to scenarios in which multiple quantities (or resources) are present, and their interplay governs the evolution of physical systems.

Quantum thermodynamics of the resonant-level model with driven system-bath coupling [PDF]
, 2017 We study nonequilibrium thermodynamics in a fermionic resonant level model with arbitrary coupling strength to a fermionic bath, taking the wide-band limit.

Thermodynamics: The Unique Universal Science
Entropy, 2017 Thermodynamics is a physical branch of science that governs the thermal behavior of dynamical systems from those as simple as refrigerators to those as complex as our expanding universe.

Fundamental Work Cost of Quantum Processes
Physical Review X, 2018 Information-theoretic approaches provide a promising avenue for extending the laws of thermodynamics to the nanoscale. Here, we provide a general fundamental lower limit, valid for systems with an arbitrary Hamiltonian and in contact with any ...
