Reconstructing Fourier's law from disorder in quantum wires
Y. Dubi, Y. Di Ventra
The theory of open quantum systems is used to study the local temperature and heat currents in metallic nanowires connected to leads at different temperatures. We show that for bal…

Information compressibility, entropy production and approach to steady state in open systems
M. Di Ventra, Y. Dubi
We introduce the concept of {\em information compressibility}, , which measures the relative change of number of available microstates of an open system in response to an ener…
