On the geometrical representation of classical statistical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2018
Abstract In this work, a geometrical representation of equilibrium and near equilibrium classical statistical mechanics is proposed. Within this formalism the equilibrium thermodynamic states are mapped on Euclidian vectors on a manifold of spherical symmetry. This manifold of equilibrium states can be considered as a Gauss map of the

On the Classical Limit of Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Contrary to the widespread belief, the problem of the emergence of classical mechanics from quantum mechanics is still open. In spite of many results on the ¯h → 0 asymptotics, it is not yet clear how to explain within standard quantum mechanics the ...

Phase Space Cell in Nonextensive Classical Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2003
: We calculate the phase space volume Ω occupied by a nonextensive system of N classical particles described by an equilibrium (or steady-state, or long-term stationary state of a nonequilibrium system) distribution function, which slightly deviates ...

A symplectic integrator for molecular dynamics on a hypersphere

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2020
We present a reversible and symplectic algorithm called ROLL, for integrating the equations of motion in molecular dynamics simulations of simple fluids on a hypersphere Sd of arbitrary dimension d. It is derived in the framework of geometric algebra and

The Phase Space Elementary Cell in Classical and Generalized Statistics

open access: yesEntropy, 2013
In the past, the phase-space elementary cell of a non-quantized system was set equal to the third power of the Planck constant; in fact, it is not a necessary assumption. We discuss how the phase space volume, the number of states and the elementary-cell

Spin and statistics in classical mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physics, 2004
The spin–statistics connection is obtained for classical particles. The connection holds within pseudomechanics, a theory of particle motion that extends classical physics to include anticommuting Grassmann variables, and that exhibits classical analogs of both spin and statistics.

Setting Boundaries for Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Statistical mechanics has grown without bounds in space. Statistical mechanics of noninteracting point particles in an unbounded perfect gas is widely used to describe liquids like concentrated salt solutions of life and electrochemical technology ...

Justifying Typicality Measures of Boltzmannian Statistical Mechanics and Dynamical Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A popular view in contemporary Boltzmannian statistical mechanics is to interpret the measures as typicality measures. In dynamical systems theory measures can similarly be interpreted as typicality measures.

Basis of Local Approach in Classical Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 2005
: An ensemble of classical subsystems interacting with surrounding particles has been considered. In general case, a phase volume of the subsystems ensemble was shown to be a function of time.
