We first use the quantum method to replicate the well-known results of a single atom relaxing, whilst demonstrating the intuitive picture it provides for dissipative dynamics. By use of individual "quantum trajectories", the method allows…
Micro- and nano-scale systems driven by rapid changes in control parameters (control protocols) dissipate significant energy. In the fast-protocol limit, we find that protocols that minimize dissipation at fixed duration are universally…

Recent advances in many-body physics have made it possible to study correlated electron systems at the two-particle level. In Dynamical Mean-Field theory, it has been shown that the metal-insulator phase diagram is closely related to the…
We consider Activated Random Walks on $\Z$ with totally asymmetric jumps and critical particle density, with different time scales for the progressive release of particles and the dissipation dynamics. We show that the cumulative flow of…
We study the first-passage properties of a jump process with constant drift where jump amplitudes and inter-arrival times follow arbitrary light-tailed distributions with smooth densities. Using a mapping to an effective discrete-time…
