Dynamical onset of quasiprobability negativity in quantum many-body systems
Rohit Kumar Shukla, Amikam Levy
Time-dependent quasiprobability distributions provide a quasiprobabilistic description of sequential measurement statistics generated by quantum dynamics, and can reveal nonclassic…
Interferometry of quantum correlation functions to access quasiprobability distribution of work
Santiago Hernández-Gómez, Takuya Isogawa, Alessio Belenchia +4
The Kirkwood-Dirac quasiprobability distribution, intimately connected with the quantum correlation function of two observables measured at distinct times, is becoming increasingly…
Periodically driven open quantum systems with vibronic interaction: Resonance effects and vibrationally mediated decoupling
Jakob Bätge, Yu Wang, Amikam Levy +2
Periodic driving and Floquet engineering have emerged as invaluable tools for controlling and uncovering novel phenomena in quantum systems. In this study, we adopt these methods t…
Quantum Engines and Refrigerators
Loris Maria Cangemi, Chitrak Bhadra, Amikam Levy
Engines are systems and devices that convert one form of energy into another, typically into a more useful form that can perform work. In the classical setup, physical, chemical, a…
Projective measurements can probe non-classical work extraction and time-correlations
Santiago Hernández-Gómez, Stefano Gherardini, Alessio Belenchia +3
We demonstrate an experimental technique to characterize genuinely nonclassical multi-time correlations using projective measurements with no ancillae. We implement the scheme in a…
Quantum thermodynamics of nonadiabatically driven systems: The effect of electron-phonon interaction
Jakob Bätge, Amikam Levy, Wenjie Dou +1
In this work we study the effects of nonadiabatic external driving on the thermodynamics of an electronic system coupled to two electronic leads and to a phonon mode, with and with…
Kirkwood-Dirac quasiprobability approach to the statistics of incompatible observables
Matteo Lostaglio, Alessio Belenchia, Amikam Levy +3
Recent work has revealed the central role played by the Kirkwood-Dirac quasiprobability (KDQ) as a tool to properly account for non-classical features in the context of condensed m…
Spin-Dependent Transport Through a Colloidal Quantum Dot: The Role of Exchange Interactions
John P. Philbin, Amikam Levy, Prineha Narang +1
The study of charge and spin transport through semiconductor quantum dots is experiencing a renaissance due to recent advances in nano-fabrication and the realization of quantum do…
Response theory for nonequilibrium steady-states of open quantum systems
Amikam Levy, Eran Rabani, David T. Limmer
We introduce a response theory for open quantum systems within nonequilibrium steady-states subject to a Hamiltonian perturbation. Working in the weak system-bath coupling regime,…
Single-atom heat engine as a sensitive thermal probe
Amikam Levy, Moritz Göb, Bo Deng +3
We propose employing a quantum heat engine as a sensitive probe for thermal baths. In particular, we study a single-atom Otto engine operating in an open thermodynamic cycle. Owing…
Universal approach to quantum thermodynamics of strongly coupled systems under nonequilibrium conditions and external driving
Wenjie Dou, Jakob Bätge, Amikam Levy +1
We present an approach based on a density matrix expansion to study thermodynamic properties of a quantum system strongly coupled to two or more baths. For slow external driving of…
A quasiprobability distribution for heat fluctuations in the quantum regime
Amikam Levy, Matteo Lostaglio
The standard approach to deriving fluctuation theorems fails to capture the effect of quantum correlation and coherence in the initial state of the system. Here we overcome this di…

Amikam Levy, Wenjie Dou, Eran Rabani +1
We present a strategy for mapping the dynamics of a fermionic quantum system to a set of classical dynamical variables. The approach is based on imposing the correspondence relatio…

Amikam Levy, Lyran Kidon, Jakob Bätge +4
In this work, we investigate the characteristics of the electric current in the so-called symmetric Anderson impurity model. We study the nonequilibrium model using two complementa…

Action-Noise-Assisted Quantum Control
Amikam Levy, E. Torrontegui, Ronnie Kosloff
We study the effect of action noise on state-to-state control protocols. Action noise creates dephasing in the instantaneous eigenbasis of the Hamiltonian and hampers the fidelity…
Quantum heat machines equivalence and work extraction beyond Markovianity, and strong coupling via heat exchangers
Raam Uzdin, Amikam Levy, Ronnie Kosloff
Various engine types are thermodynamically equivalent in the quantum limit of small 'engine action'. Our previous derivation of the equivalence is restricted to Markovian heat bath…
