Abstract
In 1956, Ramsey, based on experimental evidence of
nuclear spin, developed a theory of negative
temperature. The concept is challenged recently by
Dunkel and Hilbert [Nature Physics 10, 67 (2014)]
and others.
In this talk, we review what
thermodynamics is and present our support that
negative temperature is a valid concept in
thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.

The idea (see, e.g., A. B.
Pippard, “the elements of …”)
• Define empirical thermometer, based on 0th law of
thermodynamics
• Build Carnot cycle with two isothermal curves and
two adiabatic curves
• Compute the efficiency of cycle and find the
relation of empirical temperature and the Kelvin
scale
• Define entropy according to Clausius

Zeroth Law of thermodynamics
Max Planck: “If a body A is in thermal equilibrium
with two other bodies B and C, then B and C are in
thermal equilibrium with one another.”
Two bodies in thermal equilibrium means: if the two
bodies are to be brought into thermal contact, there
would be no net flow of energy between them.

Callen postulates (see also R H
Swendsen, “introduction to ..”)
1. Existence of state functions. (Equilibrium) States
are characterized by a small number of
macroscopically measurable quantities. For
simple system it is energy E, volume V, and
particle number N.
14
Callen postulates (see also R H
Swendsen, “introduction to ..”)
2. There exists a state function called “entropy”, for
which
the values assumed by the extensive
parameters of an isolated composite system in
the absence of an internal constraint are those
that maximize the entropy over the set of all
constrained macroscopic states.
The above statement is a form of Second Law of
thermodynamics.
15
Callen postulates (see also R H
Swendsen, “introduction to ..”)
3. Additivity: The entropy of a composite system
consisting of 1 and 2 is simply
𝑆 = 𝑆1 𝐸1 , 𝑉1 , 𝑁1 + 𝑆2 𝐸2 , 𝑉2 , 𝑁2 .
4. Monotonicity of entropy: entropy S is an
increasing function of energy E. Can we remove
this?

E.H. Lieb & J. Yngvason, Phys
Rep 310, 1 (1999)
• Build the foundation of thermodynamics and the
second law on the concept of “adiabatic
accessibility.”
• Starting with a set of more elementary axioms and
prove the Callen postulates as theorems.
19
Adiabatic Accessibility, X β‰Ί Y
“A State Y is adiabatically accessible from a state X, in
symbols X β‰Ί Y, if it is possible to change the state
from X to Y by means of an interaction with some
device and a weight, in such a way that the device
returns to its initial state at the end of the process
whereas the weight may have changed its position in
a gravitational field.”

Reflexivity, X β‰Ί X
Transitivity, X β‰Ί Y & Y β‰Ί Z implies X β‰Ί Z
Consistency, Xβ‰ΊX’ & Yβ‰ΊY’ implies (X,Y) β‰Ί (X’,Y’)
Scaling invariance, if X β‰Ί Y, then t X β‰Ί t Y for all t
>0
5. Splitting and recombination, for all 0 < t < 1, X β‰Ί
(tX, (1-t)X), and (tX, (1-t)X) β‰Ί X
6. Stability, (X, ο₯Z0) β‰Ί (Y, ο₯Z1) (for any small enough ο₯
> 0) implies X β‰Ί Y

Comparison Hypothesis (CH)
• Definition: We say the comparison hypothesis holds
for a state space if any two states X and Y in the
space are comparable, i.e., X β‰Ί Y or Y β‰Ί X.
• Compare to Carathéodory: In the neighborhood of
any equilibrium state of a system there are states
which are inaccessible by an adiabatic process.
22
Entropy Principle
• There is a real-valued function on all states of all
systems (including compound systems), called
“entropy” S such that
• Monotonicity: When X and Y are comparable then X β‰Ί Y
if and only if S(X) ο‚£ S(Y)
• Additivity: S((X,Y)) = S(X) + S(Y)
• Extensivity: for t > 0, S(tX) = t S(X)
• The above is proved with axiom 1-6 and CH, i.e. 1-6
plus CH and entropy principle are equivalent.
Callen’s maxima entropy postulate is proved as a
theorem 4.3 on page 57.

Our definition of entropy
• Work with composite system, determine the
(unnormalized probability) weight π‘Š that the system is
in a state 𝐸 (𝑗) , 𝑉 (𝑗) , 𝑁 (𝑗) ; we have
𝑀
π‘Š=
πœ”(𝐸

𝑗=1
• Define 𝑆 = π‘˜π΅ ln π‘Š (in equilibrium W obtains max
value consistent with the constraints)
• For a classical gas, density of states is

• Additivity is built in (neglecting subsystem interactions)
24
Volume (or Gibbs) entropy SG
• Total density of states up to energy E,
٠𝐸 = Tr Θ(𝐸 − 𝐻)
• Volume or Gibbs entropy is defined by
𝑆G = π‘˜π΅ ln Ω(𝐸)
• Note that
πœ” 𝐸 =
πœ•Ω
πœ•πΈ
and 𝑆B = π‘˜π΅ ln πœ”(𝐸)
25
Adiabatic invariance, see, e.g.
S.-K. Ma, Chap.23
• We change the model parameters such that
πœ•π»
𝑑𝐸 =
𝑑𝑉 = −𝑝𝑑𝑉
πœ•π‘‰
• If 𝑑𝑆 = 0 then we say 𝑆 is an adiabatic invariant
• Volume entropy is an adiabatic invariant for any
number of particles
26
Why volume entropy is wrong
• It violates Zeroth Law
• It violates Second Law
• It violates Third Law (when applied to a simple
quantum oscillator)

33
Opposing view
• Ensembles are not equivalent, especially so for the case
when energy distributions are inverted
• Thermodynamics applies to any number of particles, N
= 1, 2, 3, …
• Heat flows from hot to cold is “naïve”, T is not a state
function
• People have been using the wrong definition of entropy
of Boltzmann for the last 60 years without realizing it
34
Conclusion
• The volume entropy SG fails to satisfy the postulates
of thermodynamics – the zeroth law and the
second law. It lacks additivity important for the
validity of thermodynamics
• For classical systems, SG satisfies an exact adiabatic
invariance (due to Hertz) while Boltzmann entropy
does not. However, the violations are of order 1/N
and go away for large systems
• Thermodynamics is a macroscopic theory which
applies to large systems only
