Nonlinear Onsager relations for Gaussian quantum maps

Onsager's relations allow one to express the second law of thermodynamics in terms of the underlying associated currents. These relations, however, are usually valid only close to equilibrium. Using a quantum phase space formulation of the second law, we show that open bosonic Gaussian systems...
