Hierarchical Equations of Motion Approach to Quantum Thermodynamics
Akihito Kato, Yoshitaka Tanimura
We present a theoretical framework to investigate quantum thermodynamic processes under non-Markovian system-bath interactions on the basis of the hierarchical equations of motion…

Quantum Heat Current under Non-perturbative and Non-Markovian Conditions: Applications to Heat Machines
Akihito Kato, Yoshitaka Tanimura
We consider a quantum system strongly coupled to multiple heat baths at different temperatures. Quantum heat transport phenomena in this system are investigated using two definitio…

Quantum Suppression of Ratchet Rectification in a Brownian System Driven by a Biharmonic Force
Akihito Kato, Yoshitaka Tanimura
We rigorously investigate the quantum dissipative dynamics of a ratchet system described by a periodic potential model based on the Caldeira-Leggett Hamiltonian with a biharmonic f…
