Algebraical Entropy and Arrow of Time
Entropy, 2022 Usually, it is supposed that irreversibility of time appears only in macrophysics. Here, we attempt to introduce the microphysical arrow of time assuming that at a fundamental level nature could be non-associative.

Pre-bangian origin of our entropy and time arrow [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 1999 I argue that, in the chaotic version of string cosmology proposed recently, classical and quantum effects generate, at the time of exit to radiation, the correct amount of entropy to saturate a Hubble (or holography) entropy bound (HEB) and to identify, within our own Universe, the arrow of time.

Gravitational Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2015 The spontaneous violation of Lorentz and diffeomorphism invariance in a phase near the big bang lowers the entropy, allowing for an arrow of time and the second law of thermodynamics. The spontaneous symmetry breaking leads to

Pre-Big-Bang Black-Hole Remnants and Past Low Entropy
Universe, 2018 Dark matter could be composed by black-hole remnants formed before the big-bang era in a bouncing cosmology. This hypothetical scenario has implications on the issue of the arrow of time: it upsets a common attribution of past low entropy to the state of

Entropy, Information and Complexity or Which Aims the Arrow of Time? [PDF]
Entropy, 2015 In this article, we analyze the interrelationships among such notions as entropy, information, complexity, order and chaos and show using the theory of categories how to generalize the second law of thermodynamics as a law of increasing generalized ...

Complex Time Approach to the Hamiltonian and the Entropy Production of the Damped Harmonic Oscillator [PDF]
EntropyThe present work applies and extends the previously developed Quantitative Geometrical Thermodynamics (QGT) formalism to the derivation of a Hamiltonian for the damped harmonic oscillator (DHO) across all damping regimes.

Beyond the Arrow of Time: Can There Be a Relation between the Measurement of Entropy and Time? [PDF]
Proceedings, 2017 The general tendency of the entropy of an isolated to increase is considered to be directly linked to the direction of the flow of time. This raises the question whether a quantitative relation can be established such that a time interval can be measured

Entropy production in systems with unidirectional transitions
Physical Review Research, 2020 The entropy production is one of the most essential features for systems operating out of equilibrium. The formulation for discrete-state systems goes back to the celebrated Schnakenberg's work and hitherto can be carried out when for each transition ...

Two Types of Temporal Symmetry in the Laws of Nature [PDF]
EntropyThis work explores the implications of assuming time symmetry and applying bridge-type, time-symmetric temporal boundary conditions to deterministic laws of nature with random components.
