Figure 3.

Cartoon representation of a system A with an internal boundary C and hence a separable state |A> = |A1>|A2>. Again the relationships depicted are topological, not geometric. Triangles represent QRFs; f and g are internal informational states. Information flow across C is bidirectional by Equation (5); information also flows through the environment (dashed arrow). The communication loop is closed, generating positive Φ (Oizumi et al. 2014).
