Summary: Fluctuation theorems set fundamental limits on the statistics of entropy production, with the information quantification and upper bound determined by the maximal distribution. This bound is verified in various scenarios, including heat transfer and qubit swap engines, showcasing the versatility of the theory.

Summary: Experiments confirm the prediction of linear irreversible thermodynamics that the entropy production rate can be negative, and demonstrate its compatibility with stochastic thermodynamics through the fluctuation theorem. It is observed that the stochastic entropy production defined by Shannon information is inconsistent with the phenomenological approach.

Summary: Quantifying energy flow within fluctuating nanoscale systems is challenging, and coarse graining simplifies system description but introduces hidden contributions that complicate thermodynamics. A thermodynamically consistent theory for describing excess power in autonomous systems is developed, along with a phenomenological framework to quantify hidden excess power. The theoretical predictions are confirmed in numerical simulations of molecular transport and rotary motors.

Summary: We investigate entropy production in finitely slow transitions between nonequilibrium steady states in Markov jump processes. We use the improved adiabatic approximation method to obtain nonadiabatic corrections and analyze two types of excess entropy production. Numerical study is conducted on a two-state system.

Summary: The study demonstrates that plausible free-energy estimates of a Kob-Andersen glass can be obtained using the Jarzynski relation, which matches well with the extrapolated value of the supercooled liquid in the glassy regime. This finding is significant for the broader interest in the field of thermodynamic methods.

Summary: This study explores TUR-like bounds in overdamped and underdamped Langevin dynamics using large deviation theory, offering a new perspective and approach. It is found that current fluctuations achieved by scaling time can provide a deeper understanding of the relationship between current and dissipation in non-equilibrium systems.

Summary: This paper presents a method for measuring irreversibility in stochastic processes experimentally. By considering the probability ratio of trajectories remaining in the tubular neighborhood of a smooth path and its time reversal, the pathwise medium entropy production is obtained and can be derived from measurable tube probabilities. Estimation of the latter from numerically sampled trajectories shows excellent agreement with theory. By combining our measurement of pathwise entropy production with a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm, the entropy-production distribution for a transition path ensemble can be inferred directly from short recorded trajectories.

It evaluates how the noncommutativity affects the thermodynamic precision and explores its experimental accessibility.

Summary: In this paper, a large deviation principle is established for the entropy production rate of non-stationary, centered stable Gauss-Markov chains, validating the Gallavotti-Cohen symmetry. This is achieved by developing a large deviation theory for quasi-Toeplitz quadratic functionals of multivariate centered stable Gauss-Markov chains.

Summary: In this work, we develop a method based on the dissipaton-equation-of-motion theory to evaluate the work distributions in quantum impurity system-bath mixing processes with non-Markovian and strong couplings. Our results accurately reproduce the Jarzynski equality and Crooks relation and provide rich information on large deviation.

Summary: Stochastic thermodynamics allows defining heat and work for microscopic systems far from equilibrium, although a complete account of energetics may be challenging due to unresolved nonequilibrium degrees of freedom. Mapping visible dynamics onto a Markov model can produce a lower-bound estimate of entropy production, but this bound may be loose with small observable currents. Another approach involves using all observable data to uncover a hidden Markov model responsible for generating non-Markovian dynamics, resulting in a tightest possible lower bound on entropy production for masked Markovian kinetic networks. Illustration of the formalism is demonstrated with a simple example system.

Summary: This paper investigates the dynamics of a quantum system in a dilute gas at thermodynamic equilibrium. A quantum Markovian master equation is derived using the low-density limit technique. It is found that the Gibbs state at the bath temperature is always stationary, but the detailed balance condition can be violated beyond the Born approximation. This violation is related to the absence of time-reversal symmetry in the scattering T matrix, which leads to a thermalization mechanism allowing persistent probability and heat currents at thermal equilibrium. A model of electron hopping between three quantum dots in an external magnetic field is used to illustrate this phenomenon.

Summary: This paper investigates generalized thermodynamic relationships in physical systems where relevant macroscopic variables are determined by the exponential Kolmogorov-Nagumo average. The study shows that while the thermodynamic entropy of such systems is naturally described by Renyi's entropy with parameter gamma, an ordinary Boltzmann distribution still describes their statistics under equilibrium thermodynamics. Furthermore, the paper explores the connection with multifractal thermodynamics and demonstrates the validity of the second law of thermodynamics and the H-theorem in the dynamics of systems described by exponential Kolmogorov-Nagumo averages.

Summary: We investigate the work obtained in single molecule unfolding-folding experiments with feedback using a theoretical approach. A two-state model is employed to describe the full work distribution from discrete to continuous feedback. The impact of feedback is captured by a detailed fluctuation theorem that considers the acquired information. Analytical expressions for the average work extraction and an experimentally measurable upper bound are derived, which become tighter in the continuous feedback limit. The parameters for maximum power or rate of work extraction are also determined. Despite the simplicity of our two-state model, it shows qualitative agreement with Monte Carlo simulations of DNA hairpin dynamics.

Summary: Entropy production is a key quantity in thermodynamics, but measuring it has remained challenging. However, a newly introduced estimator called multidimensional entropic bound (MEB) utilizing an ensemble of trajectories can accurately estimate the entropy production of overdamped Langevin systems with any time-dependent protocol. The MEB also provides a unified platform to estimate entropy production of underdamped Langevin systems under certain conditions and has the advantage of computational efficiency. Numerical simulations confirm the validity and efficiency of this method by applying it to three physical systems driven by time-dependent protocols in optical tweezers experiments: a dragged Brownian particle, the pulling process of a harmonic chain, and the unfolding process of an RNA hairpin.
