A resource theory of activity for quantum thermodynamics in the absence of heat baths

Swati, Uttam Singh, Giulio Chiribella

Active states, from which work can be extracted by time-dependent perturbations, are an important resource for quantum thermodynamics in the absence of heat baths. Here we characte…

Quantifying the value of transient voltage sources

Swati, Uttam Singh, Oscar C. O. Dahlsten

Some voltage sources are transient, lasting only for a moment of time, such as the voltage generated by converting a human motion into electricity. Such sources moreover tend to ha…

Partial order on passive states and Hoffman majorization in quantum thermodynamics

Uttam Singh, Siddhartha Das, Nicolas J. Cerf

Passive states, i.e., those states from which no work can be extracted via unitary operations, play an important role in the foundations and applications of quantum thermodynamics.…

Quantum thermodynamics in a multipartite setting: A resource theory of local Gaussian work extraction for multimode bosonic systems

Uttam Singh, Michael G. Jabbour, Zacharie Van Herstraeten +1

Quantum thermodynamics can be cast as a resource theory by considering free access to a heat bath, thereby viewing the Gibbs state at a fixed temperature as a free state and hence…

Max- relative entropy of coherence: an operational coherence measure

Kaifeng Bu, Uttam Singh, Shao-Ming Fei +2

The operational characterization of quantum coherence is the corner stone in the development of resource theory of coherence. We introduce a new coherence quantifier based on max-r…

Coherence breaking channels and coherence sudden death

Kaifeng Bu, Swati, Uttam Singh +1

Quantum noise is ubiquitous to quantum systems as they incessantly interact with their surroundings and results in degrading useful resources such as coherence for single quantum s…

Uncertainty Relations for Quantum Coherence

Uttam Singh, Arun Kumar Pati, Manabendra Nath Bera

Coherence of a quantum state intrinsically depends on the choice of the reference basis. A natural question to ask is the following: if we use two or more incompatible reference ba…
