Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorems in an Expanding Universe

چکیده
The recently constructed minimal extension of the special relativistic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process to curved space-time cannot be used to model realistically diffusions on cosmological scales because it does not take into account the evolution of the thermodynamical state of the matter with cosmological time. We therefore introduce a new class of non minimal extensions characterized by time-dependent friction and noise coefficients. These new processes admit time-dependent Jüttner distributions as possible measures in momentum space; associated fluctuation-dissipation theorems are also proved and discussed.

Relativistic Transport and Fluctuation-dissipation Theorems
The first relativistic stochastic process has been constructed ten years ago to help understand the differences between Galilean and relativistic transport phenomena. We first review the litterature on this process, highlighting the striking conclusion that no coherent hydrodynamic theory of relativistic transport can be constructed and that only kinetic models are to be envisaged. The second p...

Using the usual definitions of information and entropy in quantum gravity and statistical mechanics and the existing views about the relation between information and complexity, we examine the evolution of complexity in an ever expanding universe.

متن کاملCommon Origin of Quantum Regression and Quantum Fluctuation Dissipation Theorems
It is shown that the quantum fluctuation dissipation theorem can be considered as a mathematical formulation in the spectral representation of Onsager hypothesis on the regression of fluctuations in physical systems. It is shown that the quantum fluctuation dissipation theorem can be generalized to an arbitrary stationary state. 1 Introduction. Under thermal equilibrium conditions the behavior ...
متن کاملFluctuation-dissipation theorem and quantum tunneling with dissipation at finite temperature
A reformulation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem of Callen and Welton is presented in such a manner that the basic idea of Feynman-Vernon and Caldeira -Leggett of using an infinite number of oscillators to simulate the dissipative medium is realized manifestly without actually introducing oscillators. If one assumes the existence of a well defined dissipative coefficient R(ω) which little...
