Abstract

We theoretically investigate fluctuation relations in a classical incomplete measurement process where only partial information is available. The scenario we consider consists of two coupled single-electron boxes where one or both devices can undergo a nonequilibrium transformation according to a chosen protocol. The entropy production of only one of the two boxes is recorded and fluctuation relations for this quantity are put to a test, showing strong modifications whose nature depends upon the specific case study.
