2 The message How to measure irreversibility? For stochastic dynamics: stochastic entropy production measures reversibility For deterministic dynamics: Evans-Searles dissipation function But this assumes a velocity-symmetric pdf A modified dissipation function can be defined [Ford (2015)] dissipation production measures obversibility Examples in classical and quantum dynamics

15 The Evans-Searles dissipation function time-integrated dissipation function Probability of selecting configuration at t=0 t 0 Probability of selecting, at t=0, the velocity inverted evolved configuration M T Important assumption: initial pdf is velocity symmetric. Ensures that t 0( ) 0
16 The Past Hypothesis The possible states of the universe in the past differ from those in the future Implies asymmetry in velocity statistics
17 A constraint on configurations Configuration and its velocity inverse cannot be equally possible (except in thermal equilibrium) If so future would be like the past
18 An illustration of the problem Suppose the initial ensemble contains trains that can only go forwards? a form of Past Hypothesis. ' = 0 M v T ' M T
19 Need a modified Evans-Searles test Select configuration, then invert I J Ford, New J. Phys 17 (2015)
20 The modified dissipation function Probability of selecting configuration at t=0 0 Dissipation production Probability of selecting, at t=0, the velocity inverted evolved configuration Initial pdf can be velocity asymmetric: no conflict with Past Hypothesis
21 Example: alignment of particle direction of motion with a field d sin dt pdf over directions f (,0) f (, t) f (,0)

23 Reversibility tested by s tot How likely is an antitrajectory of previous behaviour?
24 How likely is an antitrajectory from the start?
25 The obverse and reverse trajectories Obverse trajectory runs concurrent with the trajectory Reverse trajectory runs subsequent to the trajectory
