Microcanonical and resource-theoretic derivations of the thermal state of a quantum system with noncommuting charges
Nicole Yunger Halpern, Philippe Faist, Jonathan Oppenheim +1
The grand canonical ensemble lies at the core of quantum and classical statistical mechanics. A small system thermalizes to this ensemble while exchanging heat and particles with a…
Practical, Reliable Error Bars in Quantum Tomography
Philippe Faist, Renato Renner
Precise characterization of quantum devices is usually achieved with quantum tomography. However, most methods which are currently widely used in experiments, such as maximum likel…
Axiomatic relation between thermodynamic and information-theoretic entropies
Mirjam Weilenmann, Lea Krämer, Philippe Faist +1
Thermodynamic entropy, as defined by Clausius, characterizes macroscopic observations of a system based on phenomenological quantities such as temperature and heat. In contrast, in…
