| contents | Lecture notes on elements of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics: (1) a characterization of the nonequilibrium condition, largely by contrast to equilibrium; (2) a retelling of some of the great performances of the more distant past, including the perspectives of Boltzmann and Onsager; and (3) more recent methods and concepts, from local detailed balance and the identification of entropy fluxes to dynamical fluctuation theory, and the importance of dynamical activity. |
