We comment on a Letter by Vilar and Rubi [arXiv:0704.0761].
I point out that the arguments raised by Vilar and Rubi against the work-Hamiltonian connection in free-energy calculations imply, if correct, the failure of the statistical mechanical expression of the thermodynamical free-energy via the…
We show that Peliti's Comment [arXiv:0808.2855] fails to appreciate basic physical principles and consequently misrepresents both our work as well as the classical work of Gibbs and Tolman.
Extensions of statistical mechanics are routinely being used to infer free energies from the work performed over single-molecule nonequilibrium trajectories. A key element of this approach is the ubiquitous expression dW/dt=\partial H(x,t)/…
We show that the Comment [arXiv:0808.1224] by Horowitz and Jarzynski obtains as a main result a general free energy change for a harmonic system that in the macroscopic limit does not recover the textbook expression for the energy change of…
The connection between work and changes in the Hamiltonian for a system with a time-dependent Hamiltonian has recently been called into question, casting doubt on the usefulness of the Jarzynski equality for calculating free energy changes.…
This comment about the article "Hamiltonian for the Zeros of the Riemann Zeta Function", by C. M. Bender, D. C. Brody, and M. P. M\"uller, published recently in Phys. Rev. Lett. (Phys. Rev. Lett., 118, 130201, (2017)) gives arguments…
The objections raised by Vilar and Rubi [cond-mat arXiv:0707.3802v1] against the definition of the thermodynamical work appearing in Jarzynski's equality are shown to be misleading and inconsistent.
The universal quantum work relation connects a functional of an arbitrary observable averaged over the forward process to the free energy difference and another functional averaged over the time-reversed process. Here, we ask the question…
The authors argue that the calculated $^6$He binding energies by the solution of the coupled Yakubovsky integral equation in a partial wave decomposition reported by E. Ahmadi Pouya and A. A. Rajabi [Eur. Phys. J. Plus (2016) 131: 240] are…
We have derived several relations, which allow the evaluation of the system free energy changes in the leading order in $\hbar^{2}$ along classically generated trajectories. The results are formulated in terms of purely classical…
It has been claimed in \cite{1}, that the idea proposed in \cite{2} has certain mistakes based on arguments of energy conditions and others. Additionally, some of the key arguments of the paper are criticized. Here we demonstrate that the…
Recent years have witnessed major advances in our understanding of nonequilibrium processes. The Jarzynski equality, for example, provides a link between equilibrium free energy differences and finite-time, nonequilibrium dynamics. We…
We compute the large-scale limit of the free energy associated with the problem of inference of a finite-rank matrix. The method follows the principle put forward in arXiv:1811.01432 which consists in identifying a suitable Hamilton-Jacobi…
Greiter claimed erroneously that the pi-excitation of the Hubbard model has an energy of the order of U. This mistake originates from a inconsistent treatment of the two particle Hartree energy and the Hartee correction to the chemical…
The Helmholtz free energy of oscillators in thermal equilibrium with electromagnetic radiation is obtained from the Pauli-Hellmann-Feynman theorem and applied to some aspects of Lamb shifts and van der Waals interactions.
We argue that the results presented by M. Semeraro et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 158302 (2023)] for the work fluctuations of an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle trapped in a harmonic potential are incomplete and partly inexact due to the…
In a comment on my recent manuscript on the pi-particle [cond-mat/9705049], Demler et al. [cond-mat/9705191] argued that there is a correction to the chemical potential which enters the expression for the energy of the pi-particle given in…
A simple modification of the definition of the S-matrix is proposed. It is expected that the divergences related to nonzero self-energies are considerably milder with the modified definition than with the usual one. This conjecture is…
In a recent paper [ J. Stat. Mech. P07006 (2004)], E.G.D. Cohen and David Mauzerall (CM) have argued that the derivation of the nonequilibrium work relation given in [C. Jarzynski, Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 2690 (1997)] is flawed. Here I attempt…
