Research explores how persistence beyond passive limits imposes thermodynamic costs, suggesting implications for system boundaries.

This research aims to understand the thermodynamic costs associated with maintaining system persistence beyond passive limits.
Developed a theoretical framework addressing thermodynamic constraints on persistence.
Utilized a four-state bipartite Markov model to illustrate the concepts.
Analyzed the relationship between information acquisition and entropy flow.
Identified a lower bound on the entropy flow needed to maintain distinguishability.
Established structural localization constraints for exported irreversibility.
Demonstrated that failure of stabilization leads to identity loss as an irreversible event.

Dimitri Cerny (2026) studied this question.
