Reliability-Safety Trade-off in AI Distillation: A Renormalization-Group Approach
Y. M. Du, Miao-Miao Yi, Tan-Ji Zhou +1
Knowledge distillation transfers more than task competence: it also transmits response propensities, refusal policies, error boundaries, and latent safety biases. We formulate this…
Adverse Selection with Quality Variance: A Maximum-Entropy Approach
Zhi-Lei Zhang, Tan-Ji Zhou, C. P. Sun
The adverse-selection mechanism in markets explains how asymmetric information between buyers and sellers can drive high-quality goods out of the market, thereby causing market det…
Quantum Thermodynamic Integrability for Canonical and non-Canonical Statistics
Ruo-Xun Zhai, C. P. Sun
We extend the Carathéodory principle of the Second Law to quantum thermodynamics with energy levels depending on macroscopic variables, such as volume and magnetic field. This exte…
Geodesic path for the optimal nonequilibrium transition: Momentum-independent protocol
Geng Li, C. P. Sun, Hui Dong
Accelerating controlled thermodynamic processes requires an auxiliary Hamiltonian to steer the system into instantaneous equilibrium states. An extra energy cost is inevitably need…
Experimental implementation of finite-time Carnot cycle
Ruo-Xun Zhai, Fang-Ming Cui, Yu-Han Ma +2
The Carnot cycle is a prototype of ideal heat engine to draw mechanical energy from the heat flux between two thermal baths with the maximum efficiency, dubbed as the Carnot effici…
Geodesic path for the minimal energy cost in shortcuts to isothermality
Geng Li, Jin-Fu Chen, C. P. Sun +1
Shortcut to isothermality is a driving strategy to steer the system to its equilibrium states within finite time, and enables evaluating the impact of a control promptly. Finding o…
