Remark: What is and is not conserved
The unitary preservation theorem · lines 399–405
The theorem concerns reversible encoding of a quantum state. It is not a conserved scalar particle number or a thermodynamic entropy-production law. Subsystem entropy may increase after a partial trace while the complete evolution remains reversible.
