Fluctuation, Dissipation and the Arrow of Time

Published 8 Nov 2011 in physics.pop-ph and cond-mat.stat-mech | (1111.1829v2)

Abstract: The recent development of the theory of fluctuation relations has led to new insights into the ever-lasting question of how irreversible behavior emerges from time-reversal symmetric microscopic dynamics. We provide an introduction to fluctuation relations, examine their relation to dissipation and discuss their impact on the arrow of time question.
