Principles of Statistical Mechanics
These lectures comprise an introductory course in statistical mechanics. The Gibbs formulation of the canonical ensemble is introduced and illustrated by application to simple models of magnets and fluids, specifically the ideal gas and the magnetic Ising spin chain. In addition, the classical mean field theories of fluids and ferromagnets, namely the van der Waals theory of fluids and the Curi...
متن کاملDuality in nonextensive statistical mechanics.
We revisit recent derivations of kinetic equations based on Tsallis' entropy concept. The method of kinetic functions is introduced as a standard tool for extensions of classical kinetic equations in the framework of Tsallis' statistical mechanics. Our analysis of the Boltzmann equation demonstrates a remarkable relation between thermodynamics and kinetics caused by the deformation of macroscop...
متن کاملPrinciples of statistical mechanics of random networks
We develop a statistical mechanics approach for random networks with uncorrelated vertices. We construct equilibrium statistical ensembles of such networks and obtain their partition functions and main characteristics. We find simple dynamical construction procedures that produce equilibrium uncorrelated random graphs with an arbitrary degree distribution. In particular, we show that in equilib...
متن کاملStatistical mechanics and the duality of quantum mechanical time evolution
Through the H theorem, Bolzmann attempted to validate the foundations of statistical mechanics. However, it is incompatible with the fundamental laws of mechanics because its deduction requires the introduction of probability. In this paper we attempt a justification of statistical mechanics without deviating from the existing framework of quantum mechanics. We point out that the principle of e...
متن کاملStatistical Mechanics of Vortices from D-branes and T-duality
We propose a novel and simple method to compute the partition function of statistical mechanics of local and semi-local BPS vortices in the Abelian-Higgs model and its non-Abelian extension on a torus. We use a D-brane realization of the vortices and T-duality relation to domain walls. We there use a special limit where domain walls reduce to gas of hard (soft) one-dimensional rods for Abelian ...
