J. A. Roberts and G. R. W. Quispel in Physics Reports (1992) : “Dynamical systems with 8me t and phase-‐space variables r are Reversible if they are invariant under the combina8on ( +t à -‐t, r à G•r ) with G an Involu8on : (G•G= Iden8ty) .” Carl Deimann showed, in arXiv 1402.7010* : with the ﬂow dq/dt = p ; dp/dt = -‐ q -‐ p and the involu8on G(q,p) = (q,-‐p-‐q)/[ q2 + (4/3)( p + (q/2) )2 ] à Reversibility ! Evidently a damped harmonic oscillator is ( RQ ) reversible ! We prefer and use a diﬀerent deﬁni&on of a reversible set of mo8on equa8ons : A reversed movie of the mo8on obeys the same equa8ons. * Communica8ons in Theore8cal Physics ( Beijing ) , 62, 521-‐540 ( 2014 ) Can we reverse “Stochas8c Brownian Dynamics” By reversing our random number generator ? func8on rund(intx,inty) i = 1029*intx + 1731 j = i + 1029*inty + 507*intx -‐ 1731 intx = mod(i,2048) j = j + (i -‐ intx)/2048 inty = mod(j,2048) rund = (intx + 2048*inty)/4194304.0 return end This two-‐seed random number generator provides 222 = 4 194 304 = 20482 numbers between 0 and 1 without gaps or repe88on.

[ Wikipedia says : This ar,cle may be too technical for most readers to understand. ] `` We say that T is ergodic . . . ‘’ What is Quasi-‐Ergodicity+ ?

( fv ) has a sta&onary solu8on [ such as f( r ) = f( q,p ) = e[ -‐H( q,p )/kT ] ] , the ﬂow equa8on is Ergodic -‐ Quasiergodic if the long-‐8me trajectory comes arbitrarily close to each phase-‐space point where f( r ) is nonzero .

Because the equilibrium solu8on is known, a four-‐dimensional Gaussian, there are a variety of tests which can be made, many of which were carried out by Martyna, Klein, and Tuckerman and ourselves as well as Patra and Bhaiacharya, but with opposite conclusions as to MKT ergodicity .

“ The [ MKT ] thermostat therefore does not generate the canonical distribu,on or preserve quasi-‐ergodicity for the Poincaré Sec,on ”.

One such visit involved an invited talk in Melbourne. As I recall, three characters: [ Snook, Smith, and van Megan ] met me at the airport and we immediately headed oﬀ for lunch at a BYOB Chinese restaurant. Apparently, my hosts, who came suitably armed with many excellent samples, already knew my keen interest in wine. The number of bo]les on hand was impressive and clearly intended to ensure a thorough educa,on. The predictable end result was that the ,me for my seminar passed while we were all s,ll in the restaurant! However, nobody seemed concerned and it was decided to skip the seminar in favor of con,nuing scien,ﬁc discussions at Snook’s home, where a selec,on of Australian red wines was conveniently wai,ng for me to con,nue my educa,on. As I recall, there were very many truly wonderful examples on hand and the tas,ng con,nued well into the evening at which point it was decided to start sampling Australian champagnes. Alas, I cannot remember much more about the visit to Melbourne other than waking up on a couch in the living room the following morning ! Importantly, I was not hung over and indeed was forever grateful for my thorough educa,on in Australian wines. Fond Memories of Ian Snook ( without wine ) [ Douglas Henderson, Brigham Young University, Provo Utah ] My family and I spent a memorable year (1966-‐67) in Melbourne where I collaborated with John Barker at CSIRO. Ajerwards, John and I both joined the IBM Research Laboratory in San Jose, California. While there, Farid Abraham, John Barker, and I developed the infamous Henderson-‐Abraham-‐Barker equa,on [ HAB ] for an inhomogeneous ﬂuid. We used this advance to convince the IBM management to form a sta,s,cal mechanics project. One of the ﬁrst successes of our group was to interest Ian to take a leave from RMIT and come to San Jose for a year and to convince IBM Australia to help fund the visit of Ian and his family during 1976-‐77. During this year Ian and I made one of the ﬁrst simula,ons of a dense ﬂuid near a surface and compared the results with those of the HAB equa,on. This work was the subject of a talk that I gave subsequently at a Gordon Research Conference. Ian's work and reputa,on con,nued to blossom. Some,me around 1980 John Barker and I had a friendly 'argument' about which one of us had the higher opinion of Ian. In 1999 Derek Chan arranged for me to visit the University of Melbourne for a few weeks. During this visit, Ian, Ed Smith, and I had a very pleasant lunch together at a restaurant near RMIT. Ed, and now Ian, have moved on to a be]er place. For me, the world seems emp,er as a result. The Last email we got from Ian was dated 9 March 2013 : “ I saw this at the town of Dover which is very far South in Tassie just a short 8me ago when we were staying there . A very beau8ful part of the world when it is not raining , which it wasn’t , but a very strange commandment is shown on the aiached : ` NO ASCENDING Any8me Day or Night ! ’ ‘’ ‘
