We prove that when the Aubry set for a Lipschitz continuous potential is a subshift of finite type, then the pressure function converges exponentially fast to its asymptote as the temperature goes to 0. The speed of convergence turns out to…
We study the behavior of the pressure function for H\"{o}lder continuous potentials on mixing subshifts of finite type. The classical theory of thermodynamic formalism shows that such pressure functions are convex, analytic and have slant…

We show that in any relativistic system, entanglement entropy obeys a speed limit set by the entanglement in thermal equilibrium. The bound is derived from inequalities on relative entropy with respect to a thermal reference state. Thus the…
In his monograph Thermodynamics, I. M\"uller proves that for incompressible media the volume does not change with the temperature. This M\"uller paradox yields an incompatibility between experimental evidence and the entropy principle. This…

We consider the harmonic heat flow for maps from a compact Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold that is complete and of non-positive curvature. We prove that if the harmonic heat flow converges to a limiting harmonic map that is a…
The limit of small entropy production is reached in relaxing systems long after preparation, and in stationary driven systems in the limit of small driving power. Surprisingly, for extended systems this limit is not in general the…
The physical impossibility of heat transfer under isothermal conditions implies that the classical expression for the entropy of the ideal gas may not be compatible with the internal energy of the gas itself. A corrected expression of the…
