Contact topology and non-equilibrium thermodynamics

چکیده
Abstract We describe a method, based on contact topology, of showing the existence semi-infinite trajectories Hamiltonian flows which start one Legendrian submanifold and asymptotically converge to another submanifold. discuss mathematical model non-equilibrium thermodynamics where such play role relaxation processes, illustrate our results in case Glauber dynamics for mean field Ising model.

Non - Equilibrium Thermodynamics and the Kolmogorov Topology
Preface: The ideas of continuous topological evolution and its application to topological Thermodynamics started about 1964, and were assembled into a set of four monographs (2004) after I retired in 1999 [1]. It is remarkable that in the period 1964-1969, (when I first became interested in the idea of a topological basis for physical systems) the first success was the prediction of the concept...

متن کاملNon-equilibrium Thermodynamics
By designating a system as “near equilibrium”, we mean that the system is perturbed from its equilibrium state by some time-dependent external force f(t). The external force is deterministic, not random; typical examples include mechanical forces and forces due to an applied electric or magnetic field. This force drives the expectation values of some of the system’s observables away from their ...
متن کاملLocal non-equilibrium thermodynamics
Local Shannon entropy lies at the heart of modern thermodynamics, with much discussion of trajectory-dependent entropy production. When taken at both boundaries of a process in phase space, it reproduces the second law of thermodynamics over a finite time interval for small scale systems. However, given that entropy is an ensemble property, it has never been clear how one can assign such a quan...
متن کاملNon-equilibrium Thermodynamics, Thermomechanics, Geodynamics
The subject of non-equilibrium thermodynamics is now quite old, dating back to Prigogine, Biot and Truesdell in the 1950’s and 1960’s. It has had a resurgence in the physical sciences in the past five years largely due to a consolidation of ideas on thermodynamics as a whole and to advances in computer speeds. Non-equilibrium thermodynamics has now advanced to a stage where it forms an umbrella...
