Abstract

We examine the entropy of stationary nonequilibrium measures of boundary driven symmetric simple exclusion processes. In contrast with the Gibbs–Shannon entropy (Bahadoran in J. Stat. Phys. 126(4–5):1069–1082, 2007; Derrida et al. in J. Stat. Phys. 126(4–5):1083–1108, 2007), the entropy of nonequilibrium stationary states differs from the entropy of local equilibrium states.
