7 1. Gravity as an emergent phenomenon Sakharov Paradigm Solids Spacetime Mechanics, Elasticity Einstein's Theory Statistical mechanics of atoms/molecules (well-known) Statistical mechanics of ``atoms of spacetime'' (?) Emergence : Different dynamical variables different descriptions. 7
8 2. Temperature and Law of Equipartition: Boltzmann's postulate: Anything that can be heated has `atomic' structure! Equipartition Law: Equipartition of energy connects thermodynamics to microscopic d.o.f. Temperature of matter told us that it has `atomic' structure demands granularity with finite n; degrees of freedom scale as volume. 8
