Markov chains are studied in a formulation involving forces and fluxes. First, the iso-dissipation force recently introduced in the physics literature is investigated; we show that its non-uniqueness is linked to different notions of…
The finite time end of entanglement between two decohering qubits can be modified by local, unitary actions performed during the decohering process. Depending on the time when such action is taken, the end can be speeded up or slowed down,…
We study the evolution of quantum correlations in two-particle discrete-time non-unitary quantum walks on a line with gain and loss. The two particles are initially prepared in a maximally entangled state and evolve independently. Using…
We show that the dissipation rate bounds the rate at which physical processes can be performed in stochastic systems far from equilibrium. Namely, for rare processes we prove the fundamental tradeoff $\langle \dot S_\text{e} \rangle…
Variational principles play a fundamental role in deriving evolution equations of physics. They are working well in case of nondissipative evolution but for dissipative systems they are not unique, not predictive and not constructive. With…

We investigate to what extent a suitably chosen system Hamiltonian can counteract local dissipative processes and preserve entanglement in the stationary state. The results determine prospects and limitations of dissipative state…
We analyze the entangling capabilities of unitary transformations $U$ acting on a bipartite $d_1\times d_2$-dimensional quantum system. To this aim we introduce an entangling power measure $e(U)$ given by the mean linear entropy produced…
We argue that on its face, entanglement theory satisfies laws equivalent to thermodynamics if the theory can be made reversible by adding certain bound entangled states as a free resource during entanglement manipulation. Subject to…
This paper shall define and discuss two types of quantum process - Disentangling and Entangling. The first type will be shown to contradict Unitarity and is therefore ruled out as a possible signalling process within standard linear Quantum…
