Dynamical thermostatting, divergenceless phase-space flows, and KBB systems

We extend to general divergenceless systems the dynamical thermostatting approach to statistical ensembles proposed by Kusnezov, Bulgac and Bauer (KBB). Furthermore, a new family of dynamical systems inspired by the KBB method is introduced, and some of its properties considered.
