Chaos, Lyapunov Exponents and Transport Coefficients

Evans, Denis

Description

We describe the historical development of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and computer simulation. We describe how algorithms were developed and how they were proved to be correct. We also describe the impact that the mathematical study of chaos has had on nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. We briefly describe new mathematical relationships between transport processes, the Second Law of Thermodynamics and chaotic measures.
