- Authors: Xuanhua Wang, Jin Wang
- Abstract summary: Mpemba effect (MPE) is referred to the faster icing of a higher-temperature system than a system of a lower temperature.
We show that the nonequilibrium conditions can dramatically enlarge the parameter regimes where the MPE emerges.
We demonstrate that the anomalous MPEs and inverse MPEs emerge in the evolution of quantum correlations in the two-site fermionic system.

- Abstract: Originally, the Mpemba effect (MPE) is referred to the faster icing of a
higher-temperature system than a system of a lower temperature. This concept
was later generalized to anomalous decays of certain system quantities to the
equilibrium states. In this study, we investigate the scenario when a system
has no such equilibrium state to approach. Instead, the system is put in
contact with two different baths, and only a nonequilibrium state exists,
sustained by constant energy injection from the surrounding thermal baths.
Firstly, we show that the nonequilibrium conditions can dramatically enlarge
the parameter regimes where the MPE emerges. Secondly, we demonstrate that the
anomalous MPEs and inverse MPEs emerge in the evolution of quantum correlations
in the two-site fermionic system and that nonequilibrium conditions can
expedite or delay the MPEs. Thirdly, we show that the nonequilibrium-induced
quantum coherence can have considerable contributions to the emergence of the
MPE which the conventional Lindbladian dynamics fails to capture.

chaotic systems [0.0]
Quantum coherence of the initial product states in the uncoupled eigenbasis can be viewed as a resource for equilibration and approach to thermalization.
Results are given for four distinct perturbation strength regimes, the ultra-weak, weak, intermediate, and strong regimes.
Maximally coherent initial states thermalize for any perturbation strength in spite of the fact that in the ultra-weak perturbative regime the underlying eigenstates of the system have a tensor product structure and are not at all thermal-like.

We study a two level system coupled to a first thermal reservoir that in turn couples to a second thermal bath at a different temperature.
We observe prethermalization, a transitory phenomenon in which the system initially approaches thermal equilibrium with respect to the first reservoir.
In this case, the energy current through the system may exhibit transient features and even switch direction, before the system eventually reaches a non-equilibrium steady state.

We show that within this theoretical framework the total entropy production can be partitioned into two contributions.
