Contact polarizations and associated metrics in geometric thermodynamics
C. S Lopez-Monsalvo, F. Nettel, V. Pineda-Reyes +1
In this work we show that a Legendre transformation is nothing but a mere change of contact polarization from the point of view of contact geometry. Then, we construct a set of Rie…

Statistical origin of Legendre invariant metrics
V. Pineda-Reyes, Lenin F. Escamilla-Herrera, Christine Gruber +2
Legendre invariant metrics have been introduced in Geometrothermodynamics to take into account the important fact that the thermodynamic properties of physical systems do not depen…

Reparametrizations and metric structures in thermodynamic phase space
Viridiana Pineda-Reyes, Lenin F. Escamilla-Herrera, Christine Gruber +2
We investigate the consequences of reparametrizations in the geometric description of thermodynamics analyzing the effects on the thermodynamic phase space. It is known that the co…
