A logic of reciprocity between inertial frames in relative uniform motion is investigated. Relativity allows any reference frame to apply Lorentz Transformation while reciprocity would require the relative frame to use Inverse…
If a system is at thermodynamic equilibrium, an observer cannot tell whether a film of it is being played forward or in reverse: any transition will occur with the same frequency in the forward as in the reverse direction. However, if…

Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in…
Scanning photocurrent maps in inhomogeneous materials contain nontrivial patterns, which often can only be understood with a full model of device geometry and nonuniformities. We remark on the consequences of Onsager reciprocity to the…

We define symmetries in non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics, which have the physical interpretation of rotation, parity and time reversal symmetry. We collect transformation properties related to these symmetries in Fock space…
Within the general formalism of quantum theory irreversibility and the arrow of time in the evolution of various physical systems are studied. Irreversible behavior often manifests itself in the guise of entropy production. This motivates…
