Stochastic Thermodynamics of Oscillators’ Networks [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
We apply the stochastic thermodynamics formalism to describe the dynamics of systems of complex Langevin and Fokker-Planck equations. We provide in particular a simple and general recipe to calculate thermodynamical currents, dissipated and propagating ...

Stochastic Thermodynamics of Brownian Motion [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
A stochastic thermodynamics of Brownian motion is set up in which state functions are expressed in terms of state variables through the same relations as in classical irreversible thermodynamics, with the difference that the state variables are now ...

Stochastic thermodynamics for biological functions [PDF]

open access: yesQuantitative Biology
Living systems operate within physical constraints imposed by nonequilibrium thermodynamics. This review explores recent advancements in applying these principles to understand the fundamental limits of biological functions. We introduce the framework of

Stochastic Thermodynamics of an Electromagnetic Energy Harvester [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
We study the power extracted by an electromagnetic energy harvester driven by broadband vibrations. We describe the system with a linear model, featuring an underdamped stochastic differential equation for an effective mass in a harmonic potential ...

Linear stochastic thermodynamics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
We study the thermodynamics of open systems weakly driven out-of-equilibrium by nonconservative and time-dependent forces using the linear regime of stochastic thermodynamics. We make use of conservation laws to identify the potential and nonconservative

Stochastic Thermodynamics of Learning [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
Virtually every organism gathers information about its noisy environment and builds models from that data, mostly using neural networks. Here, we use stochastic thermodynamics to analyse the learning of a classification rule by a neural network. We show that the information acquired by the network is bounded by the thermodynamic cost of learning and ...

Experiments in Stochastic Thermodynamics: Short History and Perspectives

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2017
We summarize in this article the experiments which have been performed to test the theoretical findings in stochastic thermodynamics such as fluctuation theorem, Jarzynski equality, stochastic entropy, out-of-equilibrium fluctuation dissipation theorem ...

Optimal control in stochastic thermodynamics

open access: yesJournal of Physics Communications, 2023
We review recent progress in optimal control in stochastic thermodynamics. Theoretical advances provide in-depth insight into minimum-dissipation control with either full or limited (parametric) control, and spanning the limits from slow to fast driving ...

Stochastic Thermodynamics of Nonlinear Electronic Circuits: A Realistic Framework for Computing Around kT

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2021
We provide a general theory of nonlinear electronic circuits subjected to thermal noise. The devices constituting the circuit can have arbitrary I-V curves but must display shot noise. This theory includes tunnel junctions, diodes, and MOS transistors in

Macroscopic stochastic thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Modern Physics
Starting at the mesoscopic level with a general formulation of stochastic thermodynamics in terms of Markov jump processes, we identify the scaling conditions that ensure the emergence of a (typically nonlinear) deterministic dynamics and an extensive thermodynamics at the macroscopic level.
