Description

The detailed fluctuation theorem implies symmetry in the generating function of entropy production probability. The integral fluctuation theorem directly follows from this symmetry and the normalization of the probability. In this paper, we rewrite the generating function by integrating measurements and evolution into a constructed mapping. This mapping is completely positive, and the original integral fluctuation theorem is determined by the trace-preserving property of these constructed maps. We illustrate the convenience of this method by discussing the eigenstate fluctuation theorem and heat exchange between two baths. This set of methods is also applicable to the generating functions of quasiprobability, where we observe the Petz recovery map arising naturally from this approach.
