Nonequilibrium quantum impurities: from entropy production to information theory.
Nonequilibrium steady-state currents, unlike their equilibrium counterparts, continuously dissipate energy into their physical surroundings leading to entropy production and time-reversal symmetry breaking. This Letter discusses these issues in the context of quantum impurity models. We use simple thermodynamic arguments to define the rate of entropy production sigma and show that sigma has a s...
متن کاملQuantum Measurement and Entropy Production
We study the time evolution of a quantum system without classical counterpart, undergoing a process of entropy increase due to the environment influence. We show that if the environment-induced decoherence is interpreted in terms of wave-function collapses, a symbolic sequence can be generated. We prove that the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of this sequence coincides with rate of von Neumann entrop...
متن کاملQuantum Measurements, Information and Entropy Production
Thermodynamics has withstood the onslaught of the two revolutions in physical theory that have occurred during this century; i.e. relativity and quantum mechanics. Yet the microscopic basis of of thermodynamic laws remains unclear. What appears to be time reversal symmetry on the microscopic scale turns into time reversal asymmetry on the macroscopic scale. Our entire intuition concerning what ...
متن کاملQuantum Squeezing and Cosmological Entropy Production†
The entropy growth in a cosmological process of pair production is completely determined by the associated squeezing parameter, and is insensitive to the number of particles in the initial state. The total produced entropy may represent a significant fraction of the entropy stored today in the cosmic black-body radiation, provided pair production originates from a change in the background metri...
متن کاملEntropy bound and local quantum field theory
I comment on Ulvi Yurtsever’s result, which states that the entropy of a truncated bosonic Fock space is given by a holographic bound when the energy of the Fock states is constrained gravitationally. The derivation given in Yurtsever’s paper contains an subtle mistake, which invalidates the result. A more restrictive, non-holographic entropy bound is derived. PACS numbers: 04.70.-s, 03.67.-a
