It is believed that thermodynamic laws are associated with random processes occurring in the system and, therefore, deterministic mechanical systems cannot be described within the framework of the thermodynamic approach. In this paper, we…
We derive the quantum thermodynamics of quantum Brownian motion from the exact solution of its reduced density matrix. We start from the total equilibrium thermal state between the Brownian particle and its reservoir, and solve analytically…
We analyze the dynamics of a Brownian gas in contact with a heat bath in which large temperature fluctuations occur. There are two distinct time scales present, one describes the decay of the fluctuations in the temperature and the other…
In this paper, a Hamiltonian mean field model with long-range four-body interactions is proposed. The model describes a long-range mean-field system in which N unit-mass particles move on a unit circle. Each particle theta_i interacts with…

We introduce a generalized Hamiltonian Mean Field Model (gHMF)-XY model with both linear and quadratic coupling between spins and explicit Hamiltonian dynamics. In addition to the usual paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases, this model also…
We show that classical thermodynamics has a formulation in terms of Hamilton-Jacobi theory, analogous to mechanics. Even though the thermodynamic variables come in conjugate pairs such as pressure/volume or temperature/entropy, the phase…
The authors present a study of the non equilibrium statistical properties of a one dimensional hard-rod fluid dissipating energy via inelastic collisions and subject to the action of a Gaussian heat bath, simulating an external driving…
In this contribution we show that a suitably defined nonequilibrium entropy of an N-body isolated system is not a constant of the motion in general and its variation is bounded, the bounds determined by the thermodynamic entropy, i.e., the…
The relaxation towards equilibrium of systems with long range interactions is not yet fully understood. As a step towards such a comprehension, we propose the study of the dynamical equilibrium fluctuations in a model system with long range…
Quantifying the interaction between a system of interest and its ambient conditions, the memory effect links the states of two distinct Hamiltonians: one for the target system and one for the environment. In this paper, we propose the…
We introduce a model of long-range interacting particles evolving under a stochastic Monte Carlo dynamics, in which possible increase or decrease in the values of the dynamical variables is accepted with preassigned probabilities. For…
In this paper, we survey our recent results on the variational formulation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics for the finite dimensional case of discrete systems as well as for the infinite dimensional case of continuum systems. Starting with…
Liouville's theorem, based on the Hamiltonian flow (micro-canonical ensemble) for a many particle system, indicates that the (stationary) equilibrium probability distribution is a function of the Hamiltonian. A canonical ensemble…
We use a Hamiltonian interacting particle system to derive a stochastic mean field system whose McKean-Vlasov equation yields the incompressible Navier Stokes equation. Since the system is Hamiltonian, the particle relabeling symmetry…
