This talk will be about my main project of recent times, where we introduce a generalized definition of “coarse-grained entropy” and show how it connects many concepts in quantum and classical statistical mechanics. Time permitting, we’ll also consider sufficient conditions for proving statements of the second law of thermodynamics.
