Catalysts open up new reaction pathways that can speed up chemical reactions while not
consuming the catalyst. A similar phenomenon has been discovered in quantum information …

This topical review article gives an overview of the interplay between quantum information
theory and thermodynamics of quantum systems. We focus on several trending topics …

The second law of thermodynamics places constraints on state transformations. It applies to
systems composed of many particles, however, we are seeing that one can formulate laws of …

Quantum resource theories (QRTs) offer a highly versatile and powerful framework for
studying different phenomena in quantum physics. From quantum entanglement to quantum …

The relationship between thermodynamics and statistical physics is valid in the
thermodynamic limit—when the number of particles becomes very large. Here we study …

We review recent work on the foundations of thermodynamics in the light of quantum
information theory. We adopt a resource-theoretic perspective, wherein thermodynamics is …

A resource theory of quantum coherence attempts to characterize the quantum coherence
that exists in a given quantum system. Many different approaches to a resource theory of …

In 1835, Jacob Berzelius observed a common feature among several chemical reactions:
they all required an additional substance, which remained unchanged in the process. He …

I give a self-contained introduction to the resource theory approach to quantum
thermodynamics. I will introduce in an elementary manner the technical machinery …

We establish a general operational one-to-one mapping between coherence measures and
entanglement measures: Any entanglement measure of bipartite pure states is the minimum …
