I’m starting to think of an optimisation process as a map between subsets of configuration space (macrostates) and not between distinct configurations themselves (microstates).
Once I find the intellectual stamina, I’ll redraft my formalisation of an optimisation space and deterministic optimisation processes.
Formulating the work done by optimisation processes in transitioning between particular macrostates seems like it would be relatively straightforward.
