Performance of Slowly Driven Quantum Thermal Machines: Geometric Bounds and Many-Body Effects

Thermal machines have played a historic role in enhancing our understanding of thermodynamics. Quantum thermal machines, which o↵er unique properties with no classical counterpart, such as coherence, entanglement and quantum collective effects, promise to replicate this success and provide insight i...
