This research establishes a unified mathematical framework linking thermodynamics, information theory, and resource theories to analyze state convertibility in physical systems. By utilizing martingale theory and majorization criteria, the study simplifies complex trajectory statistics into a one-dimensional problem, offering new tools for understanding fundamental limits in quantum thermodynamic processes.
Researchers Detect Reference Errors Using One-Dimensional Population Relationships

Previously separate questions concerning fluctuations, informational meaning, convertibility, and trajectory statistics now collapse into one unified framework. By associating population vectors with ratios of relative populations, kj(t)/gj(t), this work bypasses fixed references and Lorenz curve comparisons altogether. This allows for assessing mismatches in thermodynamic evolutions without needing to independently characterise them.
Determining whether one state can transform into another requires assessing its convertibility given available resources. A new framework unifies concepts from thermodynamics, information theory and resource theories to address this challenge. This unified mathematical approach links these fields to better understand how systems change between states. The framework moves beyond previous methods reliant on comparing specific scenarios; instead it uses martingale theory, a method…
