The study of thermodynamic fluctuations allows one to relate the free energy difference between two equilibrium states with the work done on a system through processes far from equilibrium. This finding plays a crucial role in the quantum…
A system of interacting atoms is represented as an union of two subsystems, one of which is the system of atoms, and the other is an auxiliary scalar covariant field, which is equivalent to a given static interatomic potential of general…
