Abstract

We present perturbation formulas for the (Markovian) density evolution of physical systems. Examples are provided from classical mechanics, thermodynamics and quantum mechanics. In all situations, formulas concern the relative entropy (Kullback-Leibler) distance between densities corresponding to unperturbed (uncontrolled) and perturbed (controlled) evolutions.
