Thermodynamics Formulation of Economics
We consider demand-side economy. Using Caratheodory's approach, we define empirical existence of equation of state (EoS) and coordinates. We found new insights of thermodynamics EoS, the {\it effect structure}. Rules are proposed as criteria in promoting and classifying an empirical law to EoS status. Four laws of thermodynamics are given for economics. We proposed a method to model the EoS with econometrics. Consumer surplus in economics can not be considered as utility. Concepts such as total wealth, generalized utility and generalized surplus are introduced. EoS provides solid foundation in statistical mechanics modelling of economics and finance.

Towards equation of state for a market: A thermodynamical paradigm of economics
Foundations of equilibrium thermodynamics are the equation of state (EoS) and four postulated laws of thermodynamics. We use equilibrium thermodynamics paradigms in constructing the EoS for microeconomics system that is …
Tests of thermal macroeconomic theory on simulated micro-economies
In this paper, we test predictions of a new theory of macroeconomics, called "thermal macroeconomics." The theory aims to apply the mathematical structure of classical thermodynamics, including analogues of temperature a…
Thermal Macroeconomics: An axiomatic theory of aggregate economic phenomena
An axiomatic approach to macroeconomics based on the mathematical structure of thermodynamics is presented. It deduces relations between aggregate properties of an economy, concerning quantities and flows of goods and mo…
A Comparative Investigation of Thermodynamic Structure-Informed Neural Networks
Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) offer a unified framework for solving both forward and inverse problems of differential equations, yet their performance and physical consistency strongly depend on how governing …
Entropy and Economics
Entropy is a very useful concept from physics that tries to explain how a system behaves from a point of view of the thermodynamics. However, there are two ways to explain entropy, and it depends on if we are studying a …
