Abstract

In this paper, we address the positive recurrent diffusion process obtained by winding the solutions of a general stochastic system of coupled oscillators along several directions. Two kinds of quantities—the entropy production rate and the rotation numbers, which describe the non-equilibrium of the system from totally different points of view—are calculated and related through an explicit formula.
