Watch a mathematics seminar lecture exploring the intersection of contact topology with equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Delve into advanced mathematical concepts as Professor Leonid Polterovich from Tel Aviv University and University of Chicago presents findings from joint research with Michael Entov and Lenya Ryzhik. The 71-minute presentation, delivered at the Institute for Advanced Study's Symplectic Geometry Seminar, examines how fundamental principles and results from contact topology manifest in thermodynamic systems.
