Demonstrates how entropy production limits persistence in systems facing irreversible dynamics, implying new diagnostics.

Key Points

The research aims to establish a relationship between entropy production and the maintenance of distinguishability in coarse-grained systems under irreversible dynamics.
Derived structural localization constraints on persistence in coarse-grained systems.
Utilized a minimal four-state bipartite Markov model for statistical-mechanical analysis.
Identified passive first-exit times to assess distinguishability limits.
Identified a lower bound on exported entropy related to information acquired for correction.
Showed that persistence beyond the passive first-exit time implies processes outside the chosen system boundary.
Established a complementary relationship to Landauer's principle regarding the cost of maintaining distinguishability.
