• Abstract summary: When a quantum system is non-negligible, its steady state deviates from the textbook Gibbs state. We show that this steady state is exactly identical to the corresponding generalized Gibbs state. We use our results to study the dynamics and the steady state of a double quantum dot system under physically relevant choices of parameters.

• Abstract: When the coupling of a quantum system to its environment is non-negligible, its steady state is known to deviate from the textbook Gibbs state. The Bloch-Redfield quantum master equation, one of the most widely adopted equations to solve the open quantum dynamics, cannot predict all the deviations of the steady state of a quantum system from the Gibbs state. In this paper, for a generic spin-boson model, we use a higher-order quantum master equation (in system environment coupling strength) to analytically calculate all the deviations of the steady state of the quantum system up to second order in the coupling strength. We also show that this steady state is exactly identical to the corresponding generalized Gibbs state, the so-called quantum mean force Gibbs state, at arbitrary temperature. All these calculations are highly general, making them immediately applicable to a wide class of systems well modeled by the spin-Boson model, ranging from various condensed phase processes to quantum thermodynamics. As an example, we use our results to study the dynamics and the steady state of a double quantum dot system under physically relevant choices of parameters.

  A central question since the beginning of quantum information science is how two distant parties can convert one entangled state into another. It has been conjectured that entangled state transformations could be executed reversibly in an regime, mirroring the nature of Carnot cycles in classical thermodynamics. We investigate the concept of an entanglement battery, an auxiliary quantum system that facilitates quantum state transformations without a net loss of entanglement.

  Quantum thermalization in a many-body system is defined by the approach of local subsystems towards a universal form. Projected ensemble can mimic the behavior of a maximally entropic, uniformly random ensemble. We show that absence of dynamical purification in the space-time dual dynamics yields exact state-designs for all moments $k$ at the same time.

  equilibrium properties of nanoscale systems can deviate from standard thermodynamics due to their coupling to an environment. For the generalised $theta$-angled spin-boson model, we first derive a compact and general form of the classical equilibrium state. For the quantum spin-boson model we prove, by carefully taking a large spin limit, that Bohr's quantum-classical correspondence persists at all coupling strengths.

  An important problem in any quantum resource theory is to determine how quantum states can be converted into each other. Very few results have been presented on the intermediate regime between probabilistic and approximate transformations. We show that these bounds imply an upper bound on the rates for various classes of states under probabilistic transformations. We also show that the deterministic version of the single copy bounds can be applied for drawing limitations on the manipulation of quantum channels.
