Microcanonical origin of the maximum entropy principle for open systems.
There are two distinct approaches for deriving the canonical ensemble. The canonical ensemble either follows as a special limit of the microcanonical ensemble or alternatively follows from the maximum entropy principle. We show the equivalence of these two approaches by applying the maximum entropy formulation to a closed universe consisting of an open system plus bath. We show that the target ...
متن کاملMicrocanonical entropy for small magnetisations
Physical quantities obtained from the microcanonical entropy surfaces of classical spin systems show typical features of phase transitions already in finite systems. It is demonstrated that the singular behaviour of the microcanonically defined order parameter and susceptibility can be understood from a Taylor expansion of the entropy surface. The general form of the expansion is determined fro...
متن کاملEntropy operator for continuous dynamical systems of finite topological entropy
In this paper we introduce the concept of entropy operator for continuous systems of finite topological entropy. It is shown that it generates the Kolmogorov entropy as a special case. If $phi$ is invertible then the entropy operator is bounded with the topological entropy of $phi$ as its norm.
متن کاملSymmetries of microcanonical entropy surfaces
Symmetry properties of the microcanonical entropy surface as a function of the energy and the order parameter are deduced from the invariance group of the Hamiltonian of the physical system. The consequences of these symmetries for the microcanonical order parameter in the high energy and in the low energy phases are investigated. In particular the breaking of the symmetry of the microcanonical...
متن کاملConstruction of microcanonical entropy on thermodynamic pillars.
A question that is currently highly debated is whether the microcanonical entropy should be expressed as the logarithm of the phase volume (volume entropy, also known as the Gibbs entropy) or as the logarithm of the density of states (surface entropy, also known as the Boltzmann entropy). Rather than postulating them and investigating the consequence of each definition, as is customary, here we...
