2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica5 What is the relationship between ordinary thermodynamics and gravity? We shall study thermodynamics of self- gravitating fluid in curved spacetime.

fluid S: total entropy of fluid M: total mass of fluid N: total particle number 2015-10-276 There are two ways to determine the distribution of the fluid: 1. General relativity: Einstein’s equation gives Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV ) equation: 2. Thermodynamics: at thermal equilibrium. Are they consistent? Consider a self-gravitating perfect fluid with spherical symmetry in thermal equilibrium:

2. Entropy principle in spherical case---radiation Sorkin, Wald, Zhang, Gen.Rel.Grav. 13, 1127 (1981) In 1981, Sorkin, Wald, and Zhang (SWZ) derived the TOV equation of a self-gravitating radiation from the maximum entropy principle. Proof: The stress-energy tensor is given by The radiation satisfies: 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica7

Assume the metric of the spherically symmetric radiation takes the form The constraint Einstein equation yields 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica8

Since, the extrema of is equivalent to the Euler-Lagrange equation: 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica9

Using to replace,, we arrive at the TOV equation 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica10

3. Entropy principle in spherical case---general perfect fluid (Sijie Gao, arXiv:1109.2804, Phys. Rev. D 84, 104023 ) To generalize SWZ’s treatment to a general fluid, we first need to find an expression for the entropy density. The first law of the ordinary thermodynamics: Rewrite in terms of densities: Expand: The first law in a unit volume: 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica11

Thus, we have the Gibbs-Duhem relation 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica12

4.Proof of the entropy principle for perfect fluid in static spacetimes arXiv: 1311.6899 arXiv: 1311.6899 In this work, we present two theorems relating the total entropy of fluid to Einstein’s equation in any static spacetimes. A static spacetime admits a timelike Killing vector field which is hypersurface orthogonal. 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica17

5. Related works Proof for stationary case----in process Stability analysis (1) Z.Roupas [Class. Quantum Grav. 30, 115018 (2013)] calculated the second variation of entropy, showing that the stability of thermal equilibrium is equivalent to stability of Einstein’s equations. (2) Wald et. al. [Class. Quantum Grav. 31 (2014) 035023 ] proved the equivalence of dynamic equibrium and thermodynamic equibrium for stationary asymtotically flat spacetimes with axisymmetry. Beyond general relativity: Li-Ming Cao, Jianfei Xu, Zhe Zeng [Phys. Rev. D 87, 064005 (2013)] proved the maximum entropy principle in the framework of Lovelock gravity. 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica27

6. Conclusions We have rigorously proven the equivalence of the extrema of entropy and Einstein's equation under a few natural and necessary conditions. The significant improvement from previous works is that no spherical symmetry or any other symmetry is needed on the spacelike hypersurface. Our work suggests a clear connection between Einstein's equation and thermodynamics of perfect fluid in static spacetimes. 2015-10-272014 Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica28
