We consider the problem of energy transport in a chain of coupled quantum systems with the goal of shedding light on how nonclassical resources can affect transport. We study the cases for which either coherent or incoherent energy hopping…
We study the coherent transport modeled by continuous-time quantum walks, focussing on hierarchical structures. For these we use Husimi cacti, lattices dual to the dendrimers. We find that the transport depends strongly on the initial site…
When an extended system is coupled at its opposite boundaries to two reservoirs at different temperatures or chemical potentials, it cannot achieve a global thermal equilibrium and is instead driven to a set of current-carrying…
