Unitary Evolutions Sourced By Interacting Quantum Memories: Closed Quantum Systems Directing Themselves Using Their State Histories
Alireza Tavanfar, Aliasghar Parvizi, Marco Pezzutto
We propose, formulate and examine novel quantum systems and behavioral phases in which momentary choices of the system's memories interact in order to source the internal interacti…
Complete positivity and thermodynamics in a driven open quantum system
G. Argentieri, F. Benatti, R. Floreanini +1
While it is well known that complete positivity guarantees the fulfilment of the second law of thermodynamics, its possible violations have never been proposed as a check of the co…
Violations of the second law of thermodynamics by a non completely positive dynamics
G. Argentieri, F. Benatti, R. Floreanini +1
We consider a recently proposed model of driven open quantum microcircuit [F. Pellegrini et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 060401 (2011)] amenable to experimental investigations. We sh…
