Nonequilibrium Response for Markov Jump Processes: Exact Results and Tight Bounds
Timur Aslyamov, Massimiliano Esposito
Generalizing response theory of open systems far from equilibrium is a central quest of nonequilibrium statistical physics. Using stochastic thermodynamics, we develop an algebraic…
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…
Macroscopic Stochastic Thermodynamics
Gianmaria Falasco, Massimiliano Esposito
Starting at the mesoscopic level with a general formulation of stochastic thermodynamics in terms of Markov jump processes, we identify the scaling conditions that ensure the emerg…
