• Abstract: The thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs), originally discovered for classical systems, dictate the trade-off between dissipation and fluctuations of irreversible current, specifying a minimal bound that constrains the two quantities. In a series of effort to extend the relation to the one under more generalized conditions, it has been noticed that the bound is less tight in open quantum processes. To study the origin of the loose bounds, we consider an external field-driven transition dynamics of two-level quantum system weakly coupled to the bosonic bath as a model of open quantum system. The model makes it explicit that the imaginary part of quantum coherence, which contributes to dissipation to the environment, is responsible for loosening the TUR bound by suppressing the relative fluctuations in the irreversible current of transitions, whereas the real part of the coherence tightens it. Our study offers a better understanding of how quantum nature affects the TUR bound.

  thermodynamic and kinetic uncertainty relations indicate trade-offs between the relative fluctuation of observables and thermodynamic quantities. We derive finite-time lower bounds on the relative fluctuation of both dynamical observables and their first passage times for arbitrary initial states. We find that the product of the relative fluctuation and entropy production or dynamical activity is enhanced by quantum coherence in a generic class of dissipative processes of systems with nondegenerate energy levels.

• Quantum bounds and fluctuation-dissipation relations [0.0]
  We discuss the quantum fluctuation-dissipation theorem (the KMS conditions) as the principle underlying bounds on correlation time scales. By restating the problem in a replicated space, we show that the quantum bound to chaos is a direct consequence of the KMS condition. We describe how quantum fluctuation-dissipation relations act in general as a blurring of the time-dependence of correlations, which can imply bounds on their decay rates.
