Thermodynamic systems as extremal hypersurfaces
Alejandro Vazquez, Hernando Quevedo, Alberto Sanchez
We apply variational principles in the context of geometrothermodynamics. The thermodynamic phase space and the space of equilibrium states turn out to be des…

Relativisticlike structure of classical thermodynamics
Hernando Quevedo, Alberto Sanchez, Alejandro Vazquez
We analyze in the context of geometrothermodynamics a Legendre invariant metric structure in the equilibrium space of an ideal gas. We introduce the concept of thermodynamic geodes…

The geometry of thermodynamics
Hernando Quevedo, Alejandro Vazquez
We present a review of the main aspects of geometrothermodynamics, an approach which allows us to associate a specific Riemannian structure to any classical thermodynamic system. I…
