Title: Heat rectification with a minimal model of two harmonic oscillators
Authors: M. A. Sim\'on, A. Ala\~na, M. Pons, A. Ruiz-Garc\'ia, J. G. Muga
Abstract summary: We study heat rectification in a minimalistic model composed of two masses subjected to on-site and coupling linear forces in contact with effective Langevin baths induced by laser interactions. Asymmetric heat transport is found in this linear system if both the bath temperatures and the temperature dependent bath-system couplings are also exchanged.

Abstract: We study heat rectification in a minimalistic model composed of two masses subjected to on-site and coupling linear forces in contact with effective Langevin baths induced by laser interactions. Analytic expressions of the heat currents in the steady state are spelled out. Asymmetric heat transport is found in this linear system if both the bath temperatures and the temperature dependent bath-system couplings are also exchanged.

We apply the hierarchical equations of motion technique to analyze nonequilibrium heat transport in a spin-boson type model. We find the heat current to be drastically modified at weak system-bath coupling. Our analysis highlights a novel mechanism for controlling heat transport in nanoscale systems.

Quantum chaos and thermalization in the two-mode Dicke model [77.34726150561087]
We discuss the onset of quantum chaos and thermalization in the two-mode Dicke model. The two-mode Dicke model exhibits normal to superradiant quantum phase transition. We show that the temporal fluctuations of the expectation value of the collective spin observable around its average are small and decrease with the effective system size.

We prove that perfectly harmonic junctions can rectify heat once the reservoirs are placed under temperature gradients. Our study shows that asymmetric harmonic systems, such as room-temperature hydrocarbon molecules with varying side groups, or a linear lattice of trapped ions may rectify heat by going beyond simple boundary conditions.

An explicit expression for the temperature of an open two-level quantum system is obtained. This temperature coincides with the environment temperature if the system reaches thermal equilibrium with a heat reservoir. We show that within this theoretical framework the total entropy production can be partitioned into two contributions.
