First, we study the Kac system coupled to a thermostat, and secondly connected to a heat reservoir. The use of the Fisher-information allows simple proofs with weak regularity assumptions. As a result, we obtain exponential decay rates for the entropy and information that are essentially independent of the size of the systems.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nCommittee\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u0026bull; Prof. Michael Loss \u0026ndash; School of Mathematics, Georgia Institute of Technology (Advisor)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u0026bull; Prof. Federico Bonetto \u0026ndash; School of Mathematics, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u0026bull; Prof. Rudolf Hilfer \u0026ndash; Institute for Computational Physics, University of Stuttgart\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Decay of Entropy and Information of multidimensional Kac Models coupled to large systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2021-11-18 16:12:55","changed_gmt":"2021-11-18 16:12:55","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2021-11-23T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2021-11-23T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2021-11-23T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2021-11-23 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2021-11-23 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2021-11-23 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"111531","name":"ms defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
