Entropy production along nonequilibrium quantum jump trajectories
New Journal of Physics, 2013 For classical nonequilibrium systems, the separation of the total entropy production into the adiabatic and nonadiabatic contributions is useful for understanding irreversibility in nonequilibrium thermodynamics.

Statistical Physics of the Inflaton Decaying in an Inhomogeneous Random Environment
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2018 We derive a stochastic wave equation for an inflaton in an environment of an infinite number of fields. We study solutions of the linearized stochastic evolution equation in an expanding universe.

Stochastic thermodynamics of learning
, 2019 Unravelling the physical limits of information processing is an important goal of non-equilibrium statistical physics. It is motivated by the search for fundamental limits of computation, such as Landauer's bound on the minimal work required to erase one bit of information.

Physical Review XWe discuss a connection between a generative model, called the diffusion model, and nonequilibrium thermodynamics for the Fokker-Planck equation, called stochastic thermodynamics.

Classification of complex systems by their sample-space scaling exponents
New Journal of Physics, 2018 The nature of statistics, statistical mechanics and consequently the thermodynamics of stochastic systems is largely determined by how the number of states W ( N ) depends on the size N of the system. Here we propose a scaling expansion of the phasespace

Stochastic thermodynamics of rapidly driven systems
New Journal of Physics, 2015 We present the stochastic thermodynamics analysis of an open quantum system weakly coupled to multiple reservoirs and driven by a rapidly oscillating external field.

On the von Neumann entropy of a bath linearly coupled to a driven quantum system
New Journal of Physics, 2015 The change of the von Neumann entropy of a set of harmonic oscillators initially in thermal equilibrium and interacting linearly with an externally driven quantum system is computed by adapting the Feynman–Vernon influence functional formalism.

Thermodynamic efficiency of learning a rule in neural networks
New Journal of Physics, 2017 Biological systems have to build models from their sensory input data that allow them to efficiently process previously unseen inputs. Here, we study a neural network learning a binary classification rule for these inputs from examples provided by a ...
