The aim of this work is to analyze the entropy, entropy flux and entropy supply rate of granular fluids within the frameworks of the Boltzmann equation and continuum thermodynamics. It is shown that the entropy inequality for a granular gas…
We make use of an entropic property to establish a convergence theorem (Main Theorem), which reveals that the conditional entropy measures the asymptotic Gaussianity. As an application, we establish the {\it entropic conditional central…
Uncertainty relations provide constraints on how well the outcomes of incompatible measurements can be predicted, and, as well as being fundamental to our understanding of quantum theory, they have practical applications such as for…
For a dynamical system far from equilibrium, one has to deal with empirical probabilities defined through time-averages, and the main problem is then how to formulate an appropriate statistical thermodynamics. The common answer is that the…
Stochastic representation for interaction of quantum systems is formulated which allows to replace some of them by equivalent but purely commutative random sources. The formalism is applied to two-level systems interacting with Gaussian…
Let $A$ and $B$ be two accretive operators. We first introduce the weighted geometric mean of $A$ and $B$ together with some related properties. Afterwards, we define the relative entropy as well as the Tsallis entropy of $A$ and $B$. The…
A number of inequalities for the weighted entropies is proposed, mirroring properties of a standard (Shannon) entropy and related quantities.
We consider bounded weak solutions to the Burgers equation for which every entropy dissipation is representable by a measure and we prove that all these measures are concentrated on the graphs of countably many Lipschitz curves. The main…

We study the Born-Infeld equation from a Lagrangian point of view emphasizing the duality symmetry present in such systems. We obtain the Hamiltonian formulation directly from the Lagrangian. We also show that this system admits a…
It is argued that a Gibbsian formula for the space-time distribution of microscopic trajectories of a nonequilibrium system provides a unifying framework for recent results on the fluctuations of the entropy production. The variable entropy…
A new axiomatic characterization with a minimum of conditions for entropy as a function on the set of states in quantum mechanics is presented. Traditionally unspoken assumptions are unveiled and replaced by proven consequences of the…
This article is an attempt to complement some recent developments on conservation laws with stochastic forcing. In a pioneering development, Feng $&$ Nualarthave developed the entropy solution theory for such problems and the presence of…
In this paper, we focus on variational representations of some matrix symmetric norm functions that are related to the quantum R\'{e}nyi relative entropy. Concretely, we obtain variational representations of the function (A,B)\mapsto…
We study the stochastically forced system of isentropic Euler equations of gas dynamics with a $\gamma$-law for the pressure. We show the existence of martingale weak entropy solutions; we also discuss the existence and characterization of…
Gaussian mixture distributions are commonly employed to represent general probability distributions. Despite the importance of using Gaussian mixtures for uncertainty estimation, the entropy of a Gaussian mixture cannot be calculated…
In this paper we derive an integral (with respect to time) representation of the relative entropy (or Kullback-Leibler Divergence) between measures mu and P on the space of continuous functions from time 0 to T. The underlying measure P is…
We construct a pathwise calculus for functionals of integer-valued measures and use it to derive an martingale representation formula with respect to a large class of integer-valued random measures. Using these results, we extend the…
The large-time asymptotics of the solutions to a class of degenerate parabolic cross-diffusion systems is analyzed. The equations model the interaction of an arbitrary number of population species in a bounded domain with no-flux boundary…
