Abstract
It is shown that the linear boundary value problems of the heat conduction in a homogeneous slab can be mapped on the initial value problem for a Hamiltonian motion whose phase-space trajectories are subject to an additional restriction, the “arrival condition”. The physical consequences of this formal analogy for the macroscopic heat conduction are discussed in detail.
