Quantum thermodynamics with fast driving and strong coupling via the mesoscopic leads approach [PDF]
Physical review B, 2022 Understanding the thermodynamics of driven quantum systems strongly coupled to thermal baths is a central focus of quantum thermodynamics and mesoscopic physics. A variety of different methodological approaches exist in the literature, all with their own

Quantum thermodynamics of an Reissner-Nordström black hole [PDF]
Europhysics letters, 2022 In this paper, we will go beyond equilibrium description to properly investigate the evaporation of a Reissner-Nordström black hole. Thus, we will explicitly apply techniques of non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics to this black hole.

Operational Interpretation of Quantum Fisher Information in Quantum Thermodynamics. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2021 In the framework of quantum thermodynamics preparing a quantum system in a general state requires the consumption of two distinct resources, namely, work and energetic coherence.

Unification of the first law of quantum thermodynamics [PDF]
New Journal of Physics, 2022 Underlying the classical thermodynamic principles are analogous microscopic laws, arising from the fundamental axioms of quantum mechanics. These define quantum thermodynamic variables such as quantum work and heat and characterize the possible ...

Quantum thermodynamics under continuous monitoring: a general framework [PDF]
, 2021 The thermodynamics of quantum systems driven out of equilibrium has attracted increasing attention in last the decade, in connection with quantum information and statistical physics, and with a focus on non-classical signatures.

How to build Hamiltonians that transport noncommuting charges in quantum thermodynamics [PDF]
npj Quantum Information, 2021 Noncommuting conserved quantities have recently launched a subfield of quantum thermodynamics. In conventional thermodynamics, a system of interest and an environment exchange quantities—energy, particles, electric charge, etc.—that are globally ...

Open-system approach to nonequilibrium quantum thermodynamics at arbitrary coupling [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2021 We develop a general theory describing the thermodynamical behavior of open quantum systems coupled to thermal baths beyond perturbation theory. Our approach is based on the exact time-local quantum master equation for the reduced open system states, and

Can Quantum Correlations Lead to Violation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics?
Entropy, 2021 Quantum entanglement can cause the efficiency of a heat engine to be greater than the efficiency of the Carnot cycle. However, this does not mean a violation of the second law of thermodynamics, since there is no local equilibrium for pure quantum states,
