Full counting statistics approach to the quantum non-equilibrium Landauer bound

We develop the full counting statistics of dissipated heat to explore the relation with Landauer’s principle. Combining the two-time measurement protocol for the reconstruction of the statistics of heat with the minimal set of assumptions for Landauer’s principle to hold, we derive a general one-par...
