Application to entropy production • The method we adopted can be used for the calculation of any other quantities. • We can discuss the path dependence of the nonequilibrium entropy production. • Namely, the entropy is a geometric quantity under a nonequilibrium situation. • Note that the entropy production is a non-conserved quantity. • See Sagawa and HH, PRE 84, 051110 (2011). heat 18/24

Discussion 1 • Effects of spins and many-body interactions • We have already calculated Kondo problem (R. Yoshii and HH, in preparation). • The many-body effect can be absorbed via Schrieffer-Wolff transform. • Without the potential scattering term, the result is unchanged. • If we introduce the term, the symmetry of evolution matrix is changed. So there is possibility to have the geometric effect. 21/24
Discussion 2 ; Effect of statistics • So far, we assume that particles are Fermions. • However, our analysis is based on RWA (quasi-classical) and the result contains only distribution function of reservoirs. • We expect that the geometric effect can appear for Bosons. • See JieRen et al., PRL 104, 170601 (2010). 22/24

Summary • We have analyzed a quantum pump effect on Fermion transport. • We have found that spinless Fermions without interactions do not have any geometric effect if we control reservoir parameters. • We confirm that there exist geometric effects for the control of system parameters. • Such an idea can be used for entropy production. • Geometric effects are important. • We are now calculating the Kondo problem. 24/24
