Abstract: In this second part, we analyze the dissipation properties of Generalized Poisson-Kac (GPK) processes, considering the decay of suitable L2-norms and the definition of entropy functions. In both cases, consistent energy dissipation and entropy functions depend on the whole system of primitive statistical variables, the partial probability density functions , while the corresponding energy dissipation and entropy functions based on the overall probability density do not satisfy monotonicity requirements as a function of time. Examples from chaotic advection (standard map coupled to stochastic GPK processes) illustrate this phenomenon. Some complementary physical issues are also addressed: the ergodicity breaking in the presence of attractive potentials, and the use of GPK perturbations to mollify stochastic field equations.
