Gaussian time-translation covariant operations: structure, implementation, and thermodynamics
Xueyuan Hu, Lea Lautenbacher, Giovanni Spaventa +3
Time-translation symmetry strongly constrains physical dynamics, yet systematic characterization for continuous-variable systems lags behind its discrete-variable counterpart. We c…

Physically constrained quantum clock-driven dynamics
Lea Lautenbacher, Giovanni Spaventa, Dario Cilluffo +2
Thermal machines are physical systems designed to convert thermal energy into practical work through cyclic state transformations. A key component in such a machine is a clock-equi…
