Many-body localization is a dynamical phenomenon characteristic of strongly interacting and disordered many-body quantum systems which fail to achieve thermal equilibrium. From a quantum information perspective, the fingerprint of this…

A subsystem of an entangled ground state is in a mixed state. Thus, if we isolate this subsystem from its surroundings we may be able to extract work applying unitary transformations, up to a maximal amount which is called ergotropy. Once…

Theory of bipartite entanglement shares profound similarities with thermodynamics. In this letter we extend this connection to multipartite quantum systems where entanglement appears in different forms with genuine entanglement being the…

The concept of ergotropy was previously introduced as the maximum extractable work from a quantum state. Its enhancement, which is induced by quantum correlation via projective measurement, was formulated as the daemonic ergotropy. In this…
