Abstract We discuss a relationship between information geometry and the Glansdorff-Prigogine criterion for stability. For the linear master equation, we found a relation between the line element and the excess entropy production rate. This relation leads to a new perspective of stability in a nonequilibrium steady-state. We also generalize the Glansdorff-Prigogine criterion for stability based on information geometry. Our information-geometric criterion for stability works well for the nonlinear master equation, where the Glansdorff-Prigogine criterion for stability does not work well. We derive a trade-off relation among the fluctuation of the observable, the mean change of the observable, and the intrinsic speed. We also derive a novel thermodynamic trade-off relation between the excess entropy production rate and the intrinsic speed. These trade-off relations provide a physical interpretation of our information-geometric criterion for stability. We illustrate our information-geometric criterion for stability by an autocatalytic reaction model, where dynamics are driven by a nonlinear master equation.

And Diffusion

The entropy production rate is a well established measure for the extent of irreversibility in a process. For irreversible processes, one thus usually expects that the entropy production rate approaches zero in the reversible limit. Fractional diffusion equations provide a fascinating testbed for that intuition in that they build a bridge connecting the fully irreversible diffusion equation with the fully reversible wave equation by a one-parameter family of processes. The entropy production paradox describes the very non-intuitive increase of the entropy production rate as that bridge is passed from irreversible diffusion to reversible waves. This paradox has been established for time- and space-fractional diffusion equations on one-dimensional continuous space and for the Shannon, Tsallis and Renyi entropies. After a brief review of the known results, we generalize it to time-fractional diffusion on a finite chain of points described by a fractional master equation.

Fluctuation Relation

The turbulent thermal convection on the Sun is an example of an irreversible non-equilibrium phenomenon in a quasi-steady state characterized by a continuous entropy production rate. Here, the statistical features of a proxy of the local entropy production rate, in solar quiet regions at different timescales, are investigated and compared with the symmetry conjecture of the steady-state fluctuation theorem by Gallavotti and Cohen. Our results show that solar turbulent convection satisfies the symmetries predicted by the fluctuation relation of the Gallavotti and Cohen theorem at a local level.
