Abstract

In Chap. 5 we have used the second law of thermodynamics, the existence of the entropy, in order to equip the problem of constructing the slow invariant manifolds with a geometric structure. The requirement of the entropy growth (universally, for all reduced models) restricts significantly the form of the projectors (5.25).
