DOI: 10.1007/s10955-019-02286-4
Abstract: In this paper, we study Jarzynski’s equality and fluctuation theorems for diffusion processes. While some of the results considered in the current work are known in the (mainly physics) literature, we review and generalize these… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreva.107.052211
Abstract: Of indisputable relevance for non-equilibrium thermodynamics, fluctuations theorems have been generalized to the framework of quantum thermodynamics, with the notion of work playing a key role in such contexts. The typical approach consists of treating… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.103.052111
Abstract: Quantitative studies of irreversibility in statistical mechanics often involve the consideration of a reverse process, whose definition has been the object of many discussions, in particular for quantum mechanical systems. Here we show that the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.95.012106
Abstract: Work is one of the most basic notions in statistical mechanics, with work fluctuation theorems being one central topic in nanoscale thermodynamics. With Hamiltonian chaos commonly thought to provide a foundation for classical statistical mechanics,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.96.062135
Abstract: We study the stochastic thermodynamics of resetting systems. Violation of microreversibility means that the well-known derivations of fluctuations theorems break down for dynamics with resetting. Despite that we show that stochastic resetting systems satisfy two… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.123.090604
Abstract: Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) place strict bounds on the fluctuations of thermodynamic quantities in terms of the associated entropy production. In this Letter, we identify the tightest (and saturable) matrix-valued TUR that can be derived… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.aah4077
Abstract: Pulling macromolecules apart Many biological processes involve macromolecular interactions, and knowing the binding energies of these interactions is key to a functional understanding. There are several experimental approaches to calculate binding energies in bulk solutions,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/e24070895
Abstract: Nonequilibrium work relations and fluctuation theorems permit us to extract equilibrium information from nonequilibrium measurements. They find application in single-molecule pulling experiments where molecular free energies can be determined from irreversible work measurements by using… read more here.
