Emergence of Thermodynamics from Darwinian Dynamics

arXiv:0712.3768 · doi:10.1063/1.2979021

Abstract

Darwinian dynamics is manifestly stochastic and nonconservative, but has a profound connection to conservative dynamics in physics. In the present paper the main ideas and logical steps leading to thermodynamics from Darwinian dynamics are discussed in a quantitative manner. A synthesis between nonequilibrum dynamics and conservative dynamics is outlined.
