The lecture aims to present the fundamental concepts and results of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics from a "modern" perspective, striving to convey them as clearly as possible. For example, the lecture starts with the Jarzynski equality and the "fluctuation theorem", and concludes with Einstein's theory of Brownian motion. This is strictly the opposite of typical lectures or textbooks. But I believe our approach is logically straightforward, and I hope it is easily understandable. Please note that the focus is purely on theory (or rather, mathematical aspects), and applications are not discussed. (Sorry!) Please refer to the orientation ( YouTube (09:54)) for more details.
There is a Japanese version of the same course.
