Optimal Processes in Irreversible Thermodynamics and Microeconomics
This paper describes general methodology that allows one to extend Carnot efficiency of classical thermodynamic for zero rate processes onto thermodynamic systems with finite rate. We define the class of minimal dissipation processes and show that it represents generalization of reversible processes and determines the limiting possibilities of finite rate systems. The described methodology is t...
متن کاملMathematical Models and Equilibrium in Irreversible Microeconomics
A set of equilibrium states in a system consisting of economic agents, economic reservoirs, and firms is considered. Methods of irreversible microeconomics are used. We show that direct sale/purchase leads to an equilibrium state which depends upon the coefficients of supply/demand functions. To reach the unique equilibrium state it is necessary to add either monetary exchange or an intermediat...
متن کاملIs neoclassical microeconomics formally valid? An approach based on an analogy with equilibrium thermodynamics
The relation between Thermodynamics and Economics is a paramount issue in Ecological Economics. Two different levels can be distinguished when discussing it: formal and substantive. At the formal level, a mathematical framework is used to describe both thermodynamic and economic systems. At the substantive level, thermodynamic laws are applied to economic processes. In Ecological Economics, the...
متن کاملOptimal prediction and the Mori-Zwanzig representation of irreversible processes.
Optimal prediction methods compensate for a lack of resolution in the numerical solution of complex problems through the use of prior statistical information. We point out a relation between optimal prediction and the statistical mechanics of irreversible processes, and use a version of the Mori-Zwanzig formalism to produce a higher-order optimal prediction method.
متن کاملStatistical microeconomics
A statistical generalization is made of microeconomics in the spirit of going from classical to statistical mechanics. The price and quantity of every commodity1 traded in the market, at each instant of time, is considered to be an independent random variable: all prices and quantities are considered to be stochastic processes, with the observed market prices being a random sample of the stocha...
