Non-Equilibrium Entropy and Irreversibility in Generalized Stochastic Loewner Evolution from an Information-Theoretic Perspective [PDF]
Entropy, 2021 In this study, we theoretically investigated a generalized stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE) driven by reversible Langevin dynamics in the context of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics.

Second Law and Non-Equilibrium Entropy of Schottky Systems—Doubts and Verification– [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 Meixner’s historical remark in 1969 “... it can be shown that the concept of entropy in the absence of equilibrium is in fact not only questionable but that it cannot even be defined....” is investigated from today’s insight ...

Entropy Production: Its Role in Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2011 It is unquestionable that the concept of entropy has played an essential role both in the physical and biological sciences. However, the entropy production, crucial to the second law, has also other features not clearly conceived.

Entropy Principle and Recent Results in Non-Equilibrium Theories [PDF]
Entropy, 2014 We present the state of the art on the modern mathematical methods of exploiting the entropy principle in thermomechanics of continuous media. A survey of recent results and conceptual discussions of this topic in some well-known non-equilibrium theories

A Perspective on Lindblad’s Non-Equilibrium Entropy
Open Systems & Information Dynamics, 2023 In 1983 Göran Lindblad published a monograph on nonequilibrium thermodynamics. We here summarize the contents of this book, and provide a perspective on its relation to later developments in statistical physics and quantum physics. We high-light two aspects. The first is the idea that while all unitaries can be allowed in principle, different theories

Classical and Quantum H-Theorem Revisited: Variational Entropy and Relaxation Processes
Entropy, 2021 We propose a novel framework to describe the time-evolution of dilute classical and quantum gases, initially out of equilibrium and with spatial inhomogeneities, towards equilibrium.
