| Abstract: | Nonequilibrium thermodynamics is formulated by combining the nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation with the so-called Gibbs entropy postulate. The entropy production thus derived consists of two parts: one is of the same form as the usual entropy production and the other is the fluctuating part attendant on it. The evolution criterion can easily be verified in the stochastic framework. For illustration the system governed by the linear Fokker-Planck equation is in detail discussed. |
