Oscillatory-nonnormal decomposition of dissipation in Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes (opens in new tab)

We provide a decomposition of the steady-state entropy production rate associated with an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process into two contributions: one associated with oscillatory behavior and one associated with nonnormality. We also show that each contribution is associated with a different fundamental trade-off. The oscillatory contribution leads to the dissipation-coherence trade-off for noise-induced oscillations, which bounds the entropy producti...
