Abstract

We show that objective Martin-Lof randomness and Kolmogorov complexity of instantaneous detailed data lists for NN helium gas atoms on MM possible energies is necessary and sufficient to directly write down its Helmholtz free energy and thus all thermostatics of the gas. We show that such theory formally precedes application of probability and statistics. Each datum in a list is distinct if N,MN,M are formally well defined and with passive monitoring of thermostatic variables only, each is to be intrinsic. In this introductory paper we consider a low density cool gas of noninteracting He atoms in quantum and classical regimes. Objective definitions of detailed disorder and of thermostatic entropy arise for gas in spontaneous detailed motion along with new insights into irreversible processes and an objective Second Law. Algorithmic probability is rigorously associated with Kolmogorov complexity. A condition for equal a priori probability naturally arises and Fermi-Dirac quantum statistics follows from Martin-Lof randomness.
