TLDR
The theory based on the Kullback discrimination information as the H-function gives new insight into the interrelation between the concepts of coarse-graining and the principle of sufficiency leading to important statistical characterization of thermal equilibrium of a closed system.Abstract:
The paper deals with the imprtance of the Kullback descrimination information in the statistical characterization of negentropy of non-equilibrium state and the irreversibility of a classical dynamical system. The theory based on the Kullback discrimination information as theH-function gives new insight into the interrelation between the concepts of coarse-graining and the principle of sufficiency leading to important statistical characterization of thermal equilibrium of a closed system.read more

Examining the Research on Business Information-Entropy Correlation in the Accounting Process of Organizations.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed research trends at the international level on business information-entropy correlation in the accounting process of organizations, where mathematical and statistical techniques were applied to 980 articles during the period 1974-2020, obtaining results on the scientific productivity of the driving agents of this topic: authors, research institutions, countries/territories, and journals.

I-theorem for Fermi and Bose gases
TL;DR: In this paper, the change of discrimination information during self-organization of Fermi and Bose gases was studied and a measure of the discrimination information which determines the degree of order of states in the open systems was presented.

Maxwell-Gouy potential in statistical mechanics
TL;DR: In this paper, the probabilistic-statistical justification for the equilibrium-thermodynamic Maxwell-Gouy potential is given, and the relationship between the change in the potential and the information about the structure of the system, expressed by Kul'bak's measure, is established.
Journal ArticleDOI
OnH-theorem and entropy production
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors deal with the study of aH-theorem for an isolated system and the positivity of entropy production of a closed system on the basis of the process of removing correlation.

Information Theory and Statistical Mechanics. II
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider statistical mechanics as a form of statistical inference rather than as a physical theory, and show that the usual computational rules, starting with the determination of the partition function, are an immediate consequence of the maximum-entropy principle.
