Title: | Entropy production and the arrow of time | Authors: | Parrondo, J. M. R. VAN DEN BROECK, Christian KAWAI, Ryoichi |
Issue Date: | 2009 | Publisher: | IOP PUBLISHING LTD | Source: | NEW JOURNAL OF PHYSICS, 11 | Abstract: | We present an exact relationship between the entropy production and the distinguishability of a process from its time-reverse, quantified by the relative entropy between forward and backward states. The relationship is shown to remain valid for a wide family of initial conditions, such as canonical, constrained canonical, multi-canonical and grand canonical distributions, as well as both for classical and quantum systems. | Notes: | [Parrondo, J.
