Geometrothermodynamics

In physics, geometrothermodynamics (GTD) is a formalism developed recently by Hernando Quevedo to describe the properties of thermodynamic systems in terms of concepts of differential geometry. Consider a thermodynamic system in the framework of classical equilibrium thermodynamics. The states of thermodynamic equilibrium are considered as points of an abstract equilibrium space in which a Riemannian metric can be introduced in several ways. In particular, one can introduce Hessian metrics like the Fisher information metric, the Weinhold metric, the Ruppeiner metric and others, whose components are calculated as the Hessian of a particular thermodynamic potential. Another possibility is to introduce metrics which are independent of the thermodynamic potential, a property which is shared by all thermodynamic systems in classical thermodynamics. Since a change of thermodynamic potential is equivalent to a Legendre transformation, and Legendre transformations do not act in the equilibrium space, it is necessary to introduce an auxiliary space to correctly handle the Legendre transformations. This is the so-called thermodynamic phase space. If the phase space is equipped with a Legendre invariant Riemannian metric, a smooth map can be introduced that induces a thermodynamic metric in the equilibrium manifold. The thermodynamic metric can then be used with different thermodynamic potentials without changing the geometric properties of the equilibrium manifold. One expects the geometric properties of the equilibrium manifold to be related to the macroscopic physical properties. The details of this relation can be summarized in three main points:
#Curvature is a measure of the thermodynamical interaction.
#Curvature singularities correspond to curvature phase transitions.
#Thermodynamic geodesics correspond to quasi-static processes.
==Geometric aspects==
The main ingredient of GTD is a (2''n'' + 1)-dimensional manifold \mathcal
with coordinates Z^A=\, where \Phi is an arbitrary thermodynamic potential, E^a, a=1,2,\ldots,n, are the
extensive variables, and I^a the intensive variables. It is also
possible to introduce in a canonical manner the fundamental
one-form \Theta = d\Phi - \delta_I^a d E^b (summation over repeated indices) with \delta_=(+1,\ldots,+1), which satisfies the condition \Theta \wedge
(d\Theta)^n \neq 0, where n is the number of thermodynamic
degrees of freedom of the system, and is invariant with respect to
Legendre transformations
:
\\longrightarrow \=\\ ,\quad
\Phi = \tilde \Phi - \delta_ \tilde E ^k \tilde I ^l ,\quad
E^i = - \tilde I ^, \quad
E^j = \tilde E ^j,\quad
I^ = \tilde E ^i , \quad
I^j = \tilde I ^j \ ,

where i\cup j is any disjoint decomposition of the set of indices \,
and k,l= 1,\ldots,i. In particular, for i=\ and i=\emptyset we obtain
the total Legendre transformation and the identity, respectively.
It is also assumed that in \mathcal
there exists a metric G which is also
invariant with respect to Legendre transformations. The triad
(\mathcal,\Theta,G) defines a Riemannian contact manifold which is
called the thermodynamic phase space (phase manifold). The space of
thermodynamic equilibrium states (equilibrium manifold) is an
n-dimensional Riemannian submanifold \mathcal\subset \mathcal
induced by a smooth map \varphi:\mathcal\rightarrow\mathcal,
i.e. \varphi:\ \mapsto \, with \Phi=\Phi(E^a)
and I^a= I^a(E^a), such that \varphi^
*(\Theta)=\varphi^
*(d\Phi
- \delta_I^dE^)=0 holds, where \varphi^
* is the
pullback of \varphi. The manifold \mathcal is naturally equipped
with the Riemannian metric g=\varphi^
*(G). The purpose of GTD is
to demonstrate that the geometric properties of \mathcal are
related to the thermodynamic properties of a system with fundamental
thermodynamic equation \Phi=\Phi(E^a).
The condition of invariance with respect total Legendre transformations leads to the metrics
:
G^I = (d\Phi- \delta_I^a d E^b)^2 + \Lambda\, (\xi_ E^a I^b)\left( \delta_ dE^c d I^d\right)\ ,\quad
\delta_=(1,\ldots,1)

:
G^ = (d\Phi- \delta_I^a d E^b)^2 + \Lambda\, (\xi_ E^a I^b)\left( \eta_ dE^c d I^d\right)\ ,\quad
\eta_=(-1,1,\ldots,1)

where \xi_ is a constant diagonal matrix that can be expressed in terms of \delta_ and
\eta_, and \Lambda is an arbitrary Legendre invariant function of Z^A. The metrics G^I and G^ have been used to describe thermodynamic systems with first and second order phase transitions, respectively. The most general metric which is invariant with respect to partial Legendre transformations is
:
G^ = (d\Phi- \delta_I^a d E^b)^2 + \Lambda\, ( E_a I_a)^ \left( dE^a d I^a\right)\ ,
\quad
E_a= \delta_ E^b \ ,
\quad I_a = \delta_ I^b \ .

The components of the corresponding metric for the equilibrium manifold can be computed as
:
g_ = \frac\frac G_\ .
