Recently, the theoretical framework of stochastic thermodynamics has been revealed to be useful for macroscopic systems. However, despite its conceptual and practical importance, the connection to hydrodynamics has yet to be explored. In…
Hydrodynamics describes the evolution of macroscopic states in non--equilibrium thermodynamics. Following Onsager reciprocal relations, one can formulate a large class of hydrodynamic equations as gradient flows of free energies. In recent…

Hydrodynamics and quantum mechanics have many elements in common, as the density field and velocity fields are common variables that can be constructed in both descriptions. Starting with the Schroedinger equation and the Klein-Gordon for a…

It is shown that the Schrodinger equation can be cast in the form of two coupled real conservation equations, in Euclidean spacetime in the free case and in a five-dimensional Eisenhart geometry in the presence of an external potential.…
In this work, we consider a Shallow-Water Quasi Geostrophic equation on the sphere, as a model for global large-scale atmospheric dynamics. This equation, previously studied by Verkley (2009) and Schubert et al. (2009), possesses a rich…
We propose a starting point to the geometric description for the pseudo-gauge ambiguity in relativistic hydrodynamics, showing that it corresponds to the freedom to redefine the thermodynamic equilibrium state of the system. To do this, we…
The Madelung equations offer a hydrodynamic description of quantum systems, from single particles to quantum fluids. In this formulation, the probability density is mapped onto the fluid density and the phase is treated as a scalar…
