ON THE DYNAMICAL DERIVATION OF EQUILIBRIUM STATISTICAL MECHANICS
Work on nonequilibrium statistical mechanics, which allows an extension of the kinetic proof to all results of equilibrium statistical mechanics involving a finite number of degrees of freedom, is summarized. As an introduction to the general N-body problem, the scattering theory in classical mechanics is considered. The general N-body problem is considered for the case of classical mechanics, quantum mechanics with Boltzmann statistics, and quantum mechanics including quantum statistics. Six basic diagrams, which describe the elementary processes of the dynamics of correlations, were obtained. (M.C.G.)
