摘要：
The study of nonequilibrium reaction-diffusion systems in variational form is presented. The Hamilton-Jacobi equation is derived to prove that the information potential in progress variables is a state function, when the system reaches thermal equilibrium. The action of the reservoirs is also discussed and it is shown that the resevoir maintains constant chemical potential for natural condition. The dissipation of the energy is shown to be larger or equal to the dissipation of information for reaction-diffusion systems at fixed temperature.
