Correlation entropy of an interacting quantum field and H theorem for the O(N) model

Following the Boltzmann-BBGKY paradigm we propose a correlation entropy (of the nth order) for an interacting quantum field. The concept of correlation entropy is useful for addressing issues related to thermalization. As a small yet important step in that direction, we state an H theorem for the co...
