Bounding the resources for thermalizing many-body localized systems

Carlo Sparaciari, Marcel Goihl, Paul Boes +2

Understanding under which conditions physical systems thermalize is a long-standing question in many-body physics. While generic quantum systems thermalize, there are known instanc…

By-passing fluctuation theorems

Paul Boes, Rodrigo Gallego, Nelly H. Y. Ng +2

Fluctuation theorems impose constraints on possible work extraction probabilities in thermodynamical processes. These constraints are stronger than the usual second law, which is c…

Resource theory of quantum thermodynamics: Thermal operations and Second Laws

Nelly Ng, Mischa P. Woods

Resource theories are a generic approach used to manage any valuable resource, such as entanglement, purity, and asymmetry. Such frameworks are characterized by two main elements:…

Quantum work statistics and resource theories: bridging the gap through Renyi divergences

G. Guarnieri, N. H. Y. Ng, K. Modi +3

The work performed on or extracted from a non-autonomous quantum system described by means of a two-point projective-measurement approach takes the form of a stochastic variable. W…

Smoothed generalized free energies for thermodynamics

Remco van der Meer, Nelly Huei Ying Ng, Stephanie Wehner

In the study of thermodynamics for nanoscale quantum systems, a family of quantities known as generalized free energies have been derived as necessary and sufficient conditions tha…
