QLS seminar (Arnab Pal) via Zoom on 3 May 2022 at 14:00 CET

[Quantitative Life Sciences Section]

Dear All,

On Tuesday, 3 May  at 14:00 CET, Dr Arnab Pal  (The Institute of 
Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, India) will give a zoom webinar titled:

*Uncertainty relation for enzymes, resetting systems, and first passage 
time processes with irreversible transitions*

Abstract:
The thermodynamic uncertainty relation (TUR) shows that the fluctuations 
of currents are bounded from below by the inverse entropy production. 
When one or more transitions are completely irreversible the entropy 
production diverges, and the TUR becomes non-informative. We show that 
additional bounds, which mix entropic and dynamic contributions, hold 
for such processes. Crucially, these new bounds are tighter in the 
presence of irreversible transitions. A steady-state process with 
resetting, enzymes and a transient first-passage problem are used as 
examples. We also discuss the connections between the bounds and the 
Aldous-Shepp bound that is often used in statistical kinetics.
