    Probing quantum fluctuation theorems in engineered reservoirs

    Full text link
    Fluctuation Theorems are central in stochastic thermodynamics, as they allow for quantifying the irreversibility of single trajectories. Although they have been experimentally checked in the classical regime, a practical demonstration in the framework of quantum open systems is still to come. Here we propose a realistic platform to probe fluctuation theorems in the quantum regime. It is based on an effective two-level system coupled to an engineered reservoir, that enables the detection of the photons emitted and absorbed by the system. When the system is coherently driven, a measurable quantum component in the entropy production is evidenced. We quantify the error due to photon detection inefficiency, and show that the missing information can be efficiently corrected, based solely on the detected events. Our findings provide new insights into how the quantum character of a physical system impacts its thermodynamic evolution.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure

    Expansivity and Shadowing in Linear Dynamics

    Full text link
    In the early 1970's Eisenberg and Hedlund investigated relationships between expansivity and spectrum of operators on Banach spaces. In this paper we establish relationships between notions of expansivity and hypercyclicity, supercyclicity, Li-Yorke chaos and shadowing. In the case that the Banach space is c0c_0 or p\ell_p (1p<1 \leq p < \infty), we give complete characterizations of weighted shifts which satisfy various notions of expansivity. We also establish new relationships between notions of expansivity and spectrum. Moreover, we study various notions of shadowing for operators on Banach spaces. In particular, we solve a basic problem in linear dynamics by proving the existence of nonhyperbolic invertible operators with the shadowing property. This also contrasts with the expected results for nonlinear dynamics on compact manifolds, illuminating the richness of dynamics of infinite dimensional linear operators

    Emergence of Hierarchy on a Network of Complementary Agents

    Full text link
    Complementarity is one of the main features underlying the interactions in biological and biochemical systems. Inspired by those systems we propose a model for the dynamical evolution of a system composed by agents that interact due to their complementary attributes rather than their similarities. Each agent is represented by a bit-string and has an activity associated to it; the coupling among complementary peers depends on their activity. The connectivity of the system changes in time respecting the constraint of complementarity. We observe the formation of a network of active agents whose stability depends on the rate at which activity diffuses in the system. The model exhibits a non-equilibrium phase transition between the ordered phase, where a stable network is generated, and a disordered phase characterized by the absence of correlation among the agents. The ordered phase exhibits multi-modal distributions of connectivity and activity, indicating a hierarchy of interaction among different populations characterized by different degrees of activity. This model may be used to study the hierarchy observed in social organizations as well as in business and other networks.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, submitte

    Tecnologias sociais, TICs e educação: pilares para a construção da Tecnopedia Social Rural - TeSoRu.

    Get PDF
    O artigo apresenta uma proposta de modelo conceitual para formar uma rede de conhecimento integrada à pesquisa, extensão e ensino visando atender aos agricultores familiares, denominada de Tecnopedia Social Rural (TeSoRu) usando as Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TICs) como instrumento mediador. A partir da ênfase na construção, aperfeiçoamento, captura e disseminação de experiências, saberes, informações e conhecimentos, inerentes às diversas coletividades que integram a rede e das potencialidades inseridas nas TICs, espera-se que a TeSoRu sirva como um canal dinâmico de comunicação e institucionalização de novas inteligibilidades subsidiando a inclusão social e digital no espaço rural .SBIE 2010

    Immunization and Aging: a Learning Process in the Immune Network

    Full text link
    The immune system can be thought as a complex network of different interacting elements. A cellular automaton, defined in shape-space, was recently shown to exhibit self-regulation and complex behavior and is, therefore, a good candidate to model the immune system. Using this model to simulate a real immune system we find good agreement with recent experiments on mice. The model exhibits the experimentally observed refractory behavior of the immune system under multiple antigen presentations as well as loss of its plasticity caused by aging.Comment: 4 latex pages, 3 postscript figures attached.
