How the Hahn-Banach Theorem Sheds Bright Light on Fundamental Questions in Classical Thermodynamics
The Hahn-Banach theorem applied to the Kelvin-Planck Second Law yields entropy and temperature functions satisfying the Clausius-Duhem inequality for every process, with existence independent of equilibrium but uniqueness requiring reversible access to all states.
