โฆ Synopsis
The maximum entropy formalism is developed to implement a complete description of a dense gas in non-equilibrium situations. Two variational schemes are discussed in this context. The kinetic equations describing the system are consistently closed with the N-particle distribution function obtained via this formalism. The equilibrium state obtained on this basis is consistent with the description of the theory of liquids in the equilibrium state.

A stationary state of maximal entropy is derived as a solution of a variational procedure. Generators of a continuous group are used as the constraints. The selrconsistent hamiltonian is linear in these generators so that the solution of the se&cons-tency problem Is replaced by a solution of an alge
