Lower bounds on dissipation upon coarse graining

Lower bounds on dissipation upon coarse graining

By different coarse-graining procedures, we derive lower bounds on the total mean work dissipated in Brownian systems driven out of equilibrium. With several analytically solvable examples, we illustrate how, when, and where the information on the dissipation is captured.
