Abstract: (WSP)
We argue here that, just as it happens in classical and quantum mechanics, where it has been proven that alternative Hamiltonian descriptions can be compatible with a given set of equations of motion, the same holds true in the realm of statistical mechanics, i.e. that alternative Hamiltonian descriptions do lead to the same thermodynamical description of any physical system.Note:
