We introduce and analyze the notion of mutual entropy-production (MEP) in autonomous systems. Evaluating MEP rates is in general a difficult task due to non-Markovian effects. For bipartite systems, we provide closed expressions in various limiting regimes which we verify using numerical simulations. Based on the study of a biochemical and an electronic sensing model, we suggest that the MEP rates provide a relevant measure of the accuracy of sensing.

Information dynamics is an emerging description of information processing in complex systems which describes systems in terms of intrinsic computation, identifying computational primitives of information storage and transfer. In this paper we make a
formal analogy between information dynamics and stochastic thermodynamics which describes the thermal behaviour of small irreversible systems. As stochastic dynamics is increasingly being utilized to quantify the thermodynamics associated with the processing of information we suggest such an analogy is instructive, highlighting that existing thermodynamic quantities can be described solely in terms of extant information theoretic measures related to information processing. In this contribution we construct irreversibility measures in terms of these quantities and relate them to the physical entropy productions that characterise the behaviour of single and composite systems in stochastic thermodynamics illustrating them with simple examples. Moreover, we can apply such a formalism to systems which do not have a bipartite structure. In particular we demonstrate that, given suitable non-bipartite processes, the heat flow in a subsystem can still be identified and one requires the present formalism to recover generalizations of the second law. In these systems residual irreversibility is associated with neither subsystem and this must be included in the these generalised second laws. This opens up the possibility of describing all physical systems in terms of computation allowing us to propose a framework for discussing the reversibility of systems traditionally out of scope of stochastic thermodynamics.
Computing the stochastic entropy production associated with the evolution of a stochastic dynamical system is a well-established problem. In a small number of cases such as the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, of which we give a complete exposition, the d
istribution of entropy production can be obtained analytically, but in general it is much harder. A recent development in solving the Fokker-Planck equation, in which the solution is written as a product of positive functions, enables the distribution to be obtained approximately, with the assistance of simple numerical techniques. Using examples in one and higher dimension, we demonstrate how such a framework is very convenient for the computation of stochastic entropy production in diffusion processes.
We study the entropy production rate in systems described by linear Langevin equations, containing mixed even and odd variables under time reversal. Exact formulas are derived for several important quantities in terms only of the means and covariance
s of the random variables in question. These include the total rate of change of the entropy, the entropy production rate, the entropy flux rate and the three components of the entropy production. All equations are cast in a way suitable for large-scale analysis of linear Langevin systems. Our results are also applied to different types of electrical circuits, which suitably illustrate the most relevant aspects of the problem.
The entropy production is one of the most essential features for systems operating out of equilibrium. The formulation for discrete-state systems goes back to the celebrated Schnakenbergs work and hitherto can be carried out when for each transition
between two states also the reverse one is allowed. Nevertheless, several physical systems may exhibit a mixture of both unidirectional and bidirectional transitions, and how to properly define the entropy production in this case is still an open question. Here, we present a solution to such a challenging problem. The average entropy production can be consistently defined, employing a mapping that preserves the average fluxes, and its physical interpretation is provided. We describe a class of stochastic systems composed of unidirectional links forming cycles and detailed-balanced bidirectional links, showing that they behave in a pseudo-deterministic fashion. This approach is applied to a system with time-dependent stochastic resetting. Our framework is consistent with thermodynamics and leads to some intriguing observations on the relation between the arrow of time and the average entropy production for resetting events.
We investigate the nonequilibrium stationary states of systems consisting of chemical reactions among molecules of several chemical species. To this end we introduce and develop a stochastic formulation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics of chemical re
action systems based on a master equation defined on the space of microscopic chemical states, and on appropriate definitions of entropy and entropy production, The system is in contact with a heat reservoir, and is placed out of equilibrium by the contact with particle reservoirs. In our approach, the fluxes of various types, such as the heat and particle fluxes, play a fundamental role in characterizing the nonequilibrium chemical state. We show that the rate of entropy production in the stationary nonequilibrium state is a bilinear form in the affinities and the fluxes of reaction, which are expressed in terms of rate constants and transition rates, respectively. We also show how the description in terms of microscopic states can be reduced to a description in terms of the numbers of particles of each species, from which follows the chemical master equation. As an example, we calculate the rate of entropy production of the first and second Schlogl reaction models.
