Evolution of the entropy of stationary states in selforganization processes in the control parameter space

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The behaviour of entropy (Shannon-information) and renormalized entropy (based on theS-theorem [3]) is investigated for systems with an exponential stationary probability distribution function (1). Analytical results for the derivatives with respect to the control parameters are derived. One class of systems (3) is separated for which the renormalized entropy is a monotonously decreasing function of the control parameters.
