Chaos and information entropy production

We consider a general N-degrees-of-freedom nonlinear system which is chaotic and dissipative, and show that the nature of chaotic diffusion is reflected in the correlation of fluctuation of the linear stability matrix for the equation of motion of the dynamical system whose phase space variables behave as stochastic variables in the chaotic regime. Based on a Fokker-Planck description of the system in the associated tangent space and an information entropy balance equation, a relationship between chaotic diffusion and the thermodynamically inspired quantities such as entropy production and entropy flux is established. The theoretical propositions have been verified by numerical experiments
