Entropy Production along a Stochastic Trajectory and an Integral Fluctuation Theorem

Open access
Seifert, Udo·2005·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

For stochastic nonequilibrium dynamics like a Langevin equation for a colloidal particle or a master equation for discrete states, entropy production along a single trajectory is studied. It involves both genuine particle entropy and entropy production in the surrounding medium. The integrated sum of both Delatas(tot) is shown to obey a fluctuation theorem (exp([-Deltas(tot) = 1 for arbitrary initial conditions and arbitrary time-dependent driving over a finite time interval.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
