Title:
Entropy production from symmetry and unitarity
Speaker:
Abstract:
I will show how the notion of entropy production emerges from basic properties of quantum field theory. For this purpose, I will introduce a general non-equilibrium effective field theory of slow degrees of freedom of a quantum many-body system. The key ingredients are unitarity of the microscopic theory, and a Z_2 symmetry, which is
