Pareto-optimal work extraction and the thermodynamic cost of precision in quantum information engines
Jonas Berx, Ted Olander, Henning Kirchberg
The paper analyzes a finite-time quantum information engine where a two‑level system is measured by a quantum harmonic oscillator, and extracts work conditionally on the measuremen…
Pareto-optimal control strategies in intrinsically nonequilibrium systems
Gustavo A. L. Forão, Carlos E. Fiore, Jonas Berx
Thermodynamic control is typically formulated as the optimisation of a single objective, yet competing costs rarely admit a common optimum, so single-objective control captures onl…
Interplay of Coil-Globule Transitions and Aggregation in Homopolymer Aqueous Solutions: Simulation and Topological Insights
Junichi Komatsu, Kenichiro Koga, Jonas Berx
We investigate the structural and topological properties of hydrophobic homopolymer chains in aqueous solutions using molecular dynamics simulations and circuit topology (CT) analy…
Universal splitting of phase transitions and performance optimization in driven collective systems
Gustavo A. L. Forão, Jonas Berx, Tan Van Vu +1
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a hallmark of equilibrium systems, typically characterized by a single critical point separating ordered and disordered phases. Recently, a novel c…
Geometry and universal scaling of Pareto-optimal signal compression
Jonas Berx
I investigate the generic problem of lossy compression of a fluctuating stochastic signal into a discrete representation through optimal thresholding. The signal modulates…
Characterization and optimization of heat engines: Pareto-optimal fronts and universal features
Gustavo A. L. Forão, Jonas Berx, Carlos E. Fiore
Characterizing and optimizing nanoscopic heat engines require an appropriate understanding of the interplay between power, efficiency, entropy production and fluctuations. Despite…
