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…
System-bath entanglement of noninteracting fermionic impurities: Equilibrium, transient, and steady-state regimes
Krzysztof Ptaszynski, Massimiliano Esposito
We investigate the behavior of entanglement between a single fermionic level and a fermionic bath in three distinct thermodynamic regimes. First, in thermal equilibrium, we analyze…
System-bath entanglement during Markovian relaxation of a fermionic impurity
Krzysztof Ptaszynski, Massimiliano Esposito
We investigate the dynamics of entanglement between the system and the environment during thermalization of a noninteracting fermionic impurity coupled to a fermionic thermal bath.…
Dissipation in Hydrodynamics from Micro- to Macroscale: Wisdom from Boltzmann and Stochastic Thermodynamics
Danilo Forastiere, Francesco Avanzini, Massimiliano Esposito
We show that macroscopic irreversible thermodynamics for viscous fluids can be derived from exact information-theoretic thermodynamic identities valid at the microscale. Entropy pr…
Nonideal Reaction-Diffusion Systems: Multiple Routes to Instability
Timur Aslyamov, Francesco Avanzini, Étienne Fodor +1
We develop a general classification of the nature of the instabilities yielding spatial organization in open nonideal reaction-diffusion systems, based on linear stability analysis…
A convenient Keldysh contour for thermodynamically consistent perturbative and semiclassical expansions
Vasco Cavina, Sadeq S. Kadijani, Massimiliano Esposito +1
The work fluctuation theorem (FT) is a symmetry connecting the moment generating functions (MGFs) of the work extracted in a given process and in its time-reversed counterpart. We…
A [3]-catenane non-autonomous molecular motor model: geometric phase, no-pumping theorem, and energy transduction
Massimo Bilancioni, Massimiliano Esposito, Emanuele Penocchio
We study a model of synthetic molecular motor - a [3]-catenane consisting of two small macrocycles mechanically interlocked with a bigger one - subjected to a time-dependent drivin…
Quantum and classical contributions to entropy production in fermionic and bosonic Gaussian systems
Krzysztof Ptaszynski, Massimiliano Esposito
As previously demonstrated, the entropy production -- a key quantity characterizing the irreversibility of thermodynamic processes -- is related to generation of correlations betwe…
Nonequilibrium calcium dynamics optimizes the energetic efficiency of mitochondrial metabolism
Valérie Voorsluijs, Francesco Avanzini, Gianmaria Falasco +2
Living organisms continuously harness energy to perform complex functions for their adaptation and survival while part of that energy is dissipated in the form of heat or chemical…
Deficiency, Kinetic Invertibility, and Catalysis in Stochastic Chemical Reaction Networks
Shesha Gopal Marehalli Srinivas, Matteo Polettini, Massimiliano Esposito +1
Stochastic chemical processes are described by the chemical master equation satisfying the law of mass-action. We first ask whether the dual master equation, which has the same ste…
Two-point measurement energy statistics from particle scattering
Samuel L. Jacob, Gabriel T. Landi, Massimiliano Esposito +1
We show that the energy statistics resulting from a two-point measurement of an isolated quantum system subject to a time-dependent driving protocol can be probed by subjecting the…
Thermalization and dephasing in collisional reservoirs
Jorge Tabanera-Bravo, Juan M. R. Parrondo, Massimiliano Esposito +1
We introduce a wide class of quantum maps that arise in collisional reservoirs and are able to thermalize a system if they operate in conjunction with an additional dephasing mecha…
Fermionic one-body entanglement as a thermodynamic resource
Krzysztof Ptaszynski, Massimiliano Esposito
There is ongoing controversy about whether a coherent superposition of the occupied states of two fermionic modes should be regarded entangled or not, that is, whether its intrinsi…
Information flows in macroscopic Maxwell's demons
Nahuel Freitas, Massimiliano Esposito
A CMOS-based implementation of an autonomous Maxwell's demon was recently proposed (Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 120602) to demonstrate that a Maxwell demon can still work at macroscopic…
Circuit Theory for Chemical Reaction Networks
Francesco Avanzini, Nahuel Freitas, Massimiliano Esposito
We lay the foundation of a circuit theory for chemical reaction networks. Chemical reactions are grouped into chemical modules solely characterized by their current-concentration c…

Danilo Forastiere, Riccardo Rao, Massimiliano Esposito
We study the thermodynamics of open systems weakly driven out-of-equilibrium by nonconservative and time-dependent forces using the linear regime of stochastic thermodynamics. We m…

Ashwin Gopal, Massimiliano Esposito, Nahuel Freitas
The latest generation of transistors are nanoscale devices whose performance and reliability are limited by thermal noise in low-power applications. Therefore developing efficient…
Landau theory for finite-time dynamical phase transitions
Jan Meibohm, Massimiliano Esposito
We study the time evolution of thermodynamic observables that characterise the dissipative nature of thermal relaxation after an instantaneous temperature quench. Combining tools f…
A Maxwell demon that can work at macroscopic scales
Nahuel Freitas, Massimiliano Esposito
Maxwell's demons work by rectifying thermal fluctuations. They are not expected to function at macroscopic scales where fluctuations become negligible and dynamics become determini…
