Geometry of thermal states - thermodynamics of quantum and classical coherence
ORAL
Abstract
We discuss fluctuation theorems for the conditional stochastic work within the geometric approach, for both quantum and classical dynamics. In the quantum case, the informational contribution due to the back action of the projective measurement plays an important role in formulation meaningful statements of the second law of thermodynamics. In particular, we discuss the contribution of quantum coherence and its corresponding ergotropy, which demonstrates the succinct relationship between work extraction and coherence distillation within geometric stochastic quantum thermodynamics
