Maxwell's Demon Walks into Wall Street: Stochastic Thermodynamics Meets Expected Utility Theory. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2023 The interplay between thermodynamics and information theory has a long history, but its quantitative manifestations are still being explored. We import tools from expected utility theory from economics into stochastic thermodynamics.

Irreversibility and Biased Ensembles in Active Matter: Insights from Stochastic Thermodynamics [PDF]
Annual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, 2021 Active systems evade the rules of equilibrium thermodynamics by constantly dissipating energy at the level of their microscopic components. This energy flux stems from the conversion of a fuel, present in the environment, into sustained individual motion.

Stochastic Thermodynamics of a Quantum Dot Coupled to a Finite-Size Reservoir. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2023 In nanoscale systems coupled to finite-size reservoirs, the reservoir temperature may fluctuate due to heat exchange between the system and the reservoirs. To date, a stochastic thermodynamic analysis of heat, work, and entropy production in such systems

Stochastic thermodynamics, fluctuation theorems and molecular machines [PDF]
Reports on progress in physics. Physical Society, 2012 Stochastic thermodynamics as reviewed here systematically provides a framework for extending the notions of classical thermodynamics such as work, heat and entropy production to the level of individual trajectories of well-defined non-equilibrium ...

Two applications of stochastic thermodynamics to hydrodynamics [PDF]
Physical Review Research, 2023 Recently, the theoretical framework of stochastic thermodynamics has been revealed to be useful for macroscopic systems. However, despite its conceptual and practical importance, the connection to hydrodynamics has yet to be explored.

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics in Biochemical Systems and Its Application
Entropy, 2021 Living systems are open systems, where the laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics play the important role. Therefore, studying living systems from a nonequilibrium thermodynamic aspect is interesting and useful.

Stochastic thermodynamics of Brownian motion in temperature gradient [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2023 We study stochastic thermodynamics of a Brownian particle which is subjected to a temperature gradient and is confined by an external potential. We first formulate an over-damped Ito-Langevin theory in terms of local temperature, friction coefficient ...

Covariant nonequilibrium thermodynamics from Ito-Langevin dynamics
Physical Review Research, 2022 Using the recently developed covariant Ito-Langevin dynamics, we develop a nonequilibrium thermodynamic theory for small systems coupled to multiplicative noises.

Classical and quantum stochastic thermodynamics [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física, 2020 The stochastic thermodynamics provides a framework for the description of systems that are out of thermodynamic equilibrium. It is based on the assumption that the elementary constituents are acted by random forces that generate a stochastic dynamics ...
