Is stochastic thermodynamics the key to understanding the energy costs of computation?
David Wolpert, Jan Korbel, Christopher Lynn +16
The relationship between the thermodynamic and computational characteristics of dynamical physical systems has been a major theoretical interest since at least the 19th century, an…
Thermodynamic cost of precise timekeeping in an electronic underdamped clock
Ashwin Gopal, Massimiliano Esposito, Nahuel Freitas
Clocks are inherently out-of-equilibrium because, due to friction, they constantly consume free energy to keep track of time. The Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relation (TUR) quantifie…
A chemical reaction network implementation of a Maxwell demon
Massimo Bilancioni, Massimiliano Esposito, Nahuel Freitas
We study an autonomous model of a Maxwell demon that works by rectifying thermal fluctuations of chemical reactions. It constitutes the chemical analog of a recently studied electr…
Entropy production in communication channels
Farita Tasnim, Nahuel Freitas, David H. Wolpert
In many complex systems, whether biological or artificial, the thermodynamic costs of communication among their components are large. These systems also tend to split information t…
