The aim of this work is to show a non-sharp quantitative stability version of the fractional isocapacitary inequality. In particular, we provide a lower bound for the isocapacitary deficit in terms of the Fraenkel asymmetry. In addition, we…
Existence of an entropy current with non-negative divergence puts a lot of constraints on the transport coefficients of a fluid, so does the existence of equilibrium. In all the cases we have studied so far we have seen an overlap between…
We demonstrate that the shallow water moment equations satisfy an auxiliary entropy conservation law, where the entropy function corresponds to the total energy. Additionally, we show that the classical Newtonian slip friction and Manning…

The notion of Kruzhkov entropy solution was extended by the first author in 2007 to conservation laws with a fractional laplacian diffusion term; this notion led to well-posedness for the Cauchy problem in the $L^\infty$-framework. In the…
The estimation of entropy rates for stationary discrete-valued stochastic processes is a well studied problem in information theory. However, estimating the entropy rate for stationary continuous-valued stochastic processes has not received…
We examine the inference of quantum density operators from incomplete information by means of the maximization of general non-additive entropic forms. Extended thermodynamic relations are given. When applied to a bipartite spin 1/2 system,…
We study the evolution of Tsallis entropy along the heat flow and establish its concavity in arbitrary dimensions. Extending prior results that were restricted to the one-dimensional setting, we prove that the Tsallis entropy is concave in…
By replacing linear averaging in Shannon entropy with Kolmogorov-Nagumo average (KN-averages) or quasilinear mean and further imposing the additivity constraint, R\'{e}nyi proposed the first formal generalization of Shannon entropy. Using…
The paper suggests the concepts of an upper entropy and a lower entropy. We propose a new axiomatic definition, namely, upper entropy axioms, inspired by axioms of metric spaces, and also formulate lower entropy axioms. We also develop weak…
The aim of the paper is to study the link between non additivity of some entropies and their boundedness. We propose an axiomatic construction of the entropy relying on the fact that entropy belongs to a group isomorphic to the usual…
Nonlinear diffusion $\partial_t \rho = \Delta(\Phi(\rho))$ is considered for a class of nonlinearities $\Phi$. It is shown that for suitable choices of $\Phi$, an associated Lyapunov functional can be interpreted as thermodynamics entropy.…
We use rigorous non-equilibrium thermodynamic arguments to prove (i) the residual entropy of any system is bounded below by the experimentally (calorimetrically) determined absolute temperature entropy, which itself is bounded below by the…
Active biological systems reside far from equilibrium, dissipating heat even in their steady state, thus requiring an extension of conventional equilibrium thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. In this Letter, we have extended the…
We extend the definition of algebraic entropy to semi-discrete (difference-differential) equations. Calculating the entropy for a number of integrable and non integrable systems, we show that its vanishing is a characteristic feature of…
