Entropic and gradient flow formulations for nonlinear diffusion
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Nonlinear diffusion is considered for a class of nonlinearities . It is shown that for suitable choices of , an associated Lyapunov functional can be interpreted as thermodynamics entropy. This information is used to derive an associated metric, here called thermodynamic metric. The analysis is confined to nonlinear diffusion obtainable as hydrodynamic limit of a zero range process. The thermodynamic setting is linked to a large deviation principle for the underlying zero range process and the corresponding equation of fluctuating hydrodynamics. For the latter connections, the thermodynamic metric plays a central role.
The authors consider a nonlinear diffusion equation. They prove that, for a suitable choice of the nonlinearity, a Lyapunov functional can be found which can be interpreted as the thermodynamic entropy, associated to an underlying particle system. This is done in the case where this system is the zero-range process, and the nonlinear diffusion equation is obtained in the hydrodynamic limit.
