摘要:

在二分量子系统中,每个子系统的哈密顿量和相互作用之间的对易关系对每个分区的动力学施加了基本约束。在这里,我们调查的工作,热和熵产生的二分系统的特点是他们的本地哈密顿量和相互作用算子之间的特定的相互作用。我们考虑[Weimer,EPL,83:30008,2008]的形式主义,其中热(功)与(不)改变局部冯诺伊曼熵的能量变化相一致,如在有效的局部测量基础上所观察到的。我们证明的后果的工作和热通量到每个分区的对易关系,并扩展到开放量子系统的形式主义,其中一个,或两个分区受到马尔可夫热浴。我们还讨论了在非热平衡的二体量子系统中热与熵的关系,并使上述方法与热力学第二定律相一致。

英文摘要:

In bipartite quantum systems commutation relations between the Hamiltonian of each subsystem and the interaction impose fundamental constraints on the dynamics of each partition. Here we investigate work, heat and entropy production in bipartite systems characterized by particular commutators between their local Hamiltonians and the interaction operator. We consider the formalism of [Weimer, EPL, 83:30008, 2008], in which heat (work) is identified with energy changes that (do not) alter the local von Neumann entropy, as observed in an effective local measurement basis. We demonstrate the consequences of the commutation relations on the work and heat fluxes into each partition, and extend the formalism to open quantum systems where one, or both, partitions are subject to a Markovian thermal bath. We also discuss the relation between heat and entropy in bipartite quantum systems out of thermal equilibrium, and reconcile the aforementioned approach with the second law of thermodynamics.
