Nonlinear Quantum Evolution Equations to Model Irreversible Adiabatic Relaxation with Maximal Entropy Production and Other Nonunitary Processes
We first discuss the geometrical construction and the main mathematical features of the maximum-entropy-production/steepest-entropyascent nonlinear evolution equation proposed long ago by this author in the framework of a fully quantum theory of irreversibility and thermodynamics for a single isolated or adiabatic particle, qubit, or qudit, and recently rediscovered by other authors. The nonlin...
متن کاملMeasures of maximal entropy
We extend the results of Walters on the uniqueness of invariant measures with maximal entropy on compact groups to an arbitrary locally compact group. We show that the maximal entropy is attained at the left Haar measure and the measure of maximal entropy is unique.
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 کاملOWA operators with maximal entropy
One important issue in the theory of Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operators is the determination of the associated weights. One of the first approaches, suggested by O’Hagan, determines a special class of OWA operators having maximal Shannon entropy of the OWA weights for a given level of orness; algorithmically it is based on the solution of a constrained optimization problem. In this pape...
متن کاملEntropy Production in Nonlinear Recombination Models
We study the convergence to equilibrium of a class of nonlinear recombination models. In analogy with Boltzmann’s H theorem from kinetic theory, and in contrast with previous analysis of these models, convergence is measured in terms of relative entropy. The problem is formulated within a general framework that we refer to as Reversible Quadratic Systems. Our main result is a tight quantitative...
