Kac entropy production

ID: kac-entropy-production

For the Kac master equation and finite differentiable entropy, mass and energy conservation remove the non-logarithmic entropy terms. Symmetrizing each pair rotation then gives . The integrand is nonnegative by monotonicity of the logarithm, with the usual extended convention at zeros. Zero dissipation corresponds to radiality; it need not imply zero relative entropy.
