We show how a Brownian motion on a short scale can originate a relativistic motion on scales larger than particle's Compton wavelength. Special relativity appears to be not a primitive concept, but rather it statistically emerges when a coarse graining average over distances of order, or longer than the Compton wavelength is taken. Our scheme accommodates easily also the doubly special relativistic dynamics. A previously unsuspected, common statistical origin of the two frameworks is brought to light for the first time.

Meixner's historical remark in 1969 "... it can be shown that the concept of entropy in the absence of equilibrium is in fact not only questionable but that it cannot even be defined...." is investigated from today's insight. Several statements --such as the three laws of phenomenological thermodynamics, the embedding theorem and the adiabatical uniqueness-- are used to get rid of non-equilibrium entropy as a primitive concept. In this framework, Clausius inequality of open systems can be derived by use of the defining inequalities which establish the non-equilibrium quantities contact temperature and non-equilibrium molar entropy which allow to describe the interaction between the Schottky system and its controlling equilibrium environment.

Doubly Special Relativity

Using the concept known as a superstatistics path integral we show that a Wiener process on a short spatial scale can originate a relativistic motion on scales that are larger than particle's Compton wavelength. Viewed in this way, special relativity is not a primitive concept, but rather it statistically emerges when a coarse graining average over distances of order, or longer than the Compton wavelength is taken. Here we place a special emphasis on the modifications that are necessary to accommodate in our scheme the doubly special relativistic dynamics. In this way, a previously unsuspected, common statistical origin of the two frameworks is revealed. Salient issues such as generalized commutation relations and a connection with Feynman chessboard model are also discussed.
