Abstract: | We study the existence of solutions to the orthogonal dynamics equation, which arises in the Mori-Zwanzig formalism in irreversible
statistical mechanics. This equation generates the random noise associated with a reduction in the number of variables. IfL is the Liouvillian, or Lie derivative associated with a Hamiltonian system, andP an orthogonal projection onto a closed subspace ofL
2, then the orthogonal dynamics is generated by the operator (I −P)L. We prove the existence of classical solutions for the case whereP has finite-dimensional range. In the general case, we prove the existence of weak solutions. |
