Introducing one-shot work into fluctuation relations
Two approaches to small-scale and quantum thermodynamics arefluctuation relations and one-shot statistical mechanics. Fluctuation relations (suchas Crooks’ Theorem and Jarzynski’s Equality) relate nonequilibrium behaviors toequilibrium quantities such as free energy. One-shot statistical mechanics involvesstatements about every run of an experiment, not just about averages over ...
متن کاملWork extraction from quantum systems with bounded fluctuations in work
In the standard framework of thermodynamics, work is a random variable whose average is bounded by the change in free energy of the system. This average work is calculated without regard for the size of its fluctuations. Here we show that for some processes, such as reversible cooling, the fluctuations in work diverge. Realistic thermal machines may be unable to cope with arbitrarily large fluc...
متن کاملA Survey of Recent Work in Video Shot Boundary Detection
A video shot is defined as a continuously imaged temporal segment of a video. Since the semantic content of a video is largely based on its production (imaging) process, the complete segmentation of a video into shots is a fundamental first step for most kinds of semantic video processing tasks. Here we present a classification of shot boundary detection algorithms, including those that deal wi...
متن کاملSequence complexity and work extraction
We consider a simplified version of a solvable model by Mandal and Jarzynski, which constructively demonstrates the interplay between work extraction and the increase of the Shannon entropy of an information reservoir which is in contact with a physical system. We extend Mandal and Jarzynski’s main findings in several directions: First, we allow sequences of correlated bits rather than just ind...
متن کاملSingle Mothers and Work
Single Mothers and Work Western countries differ greatly in the extent to which single mothers participate in the labor market. Using LIS data for 15 countries, I propose and estimate a simple structural model of labor supply that incorporates the main variables that influence the work decision for single mothers. The results suggest that a large part of the cross country variation in the emplo...
