Approach to Equilibrium of Statistical Systems: Classical Particles and Quantum Fields Off-Equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Non-equilibrium evolution at absolute temperature T and approach to equilibrium of statistical systems in long-time (t) approximations, using both hierarchies and functional integrals, are reviewed.

Resummation of perturbation series in non-equilibrium scalar field theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The general behaviour of perturbation series in non-equilibrium scalar field theory is analysed in some detail, with a particular emphasis on the ``pathological terms'', generated by multiple products of \delta-functions.

Non-equilibrium Onsager-Machlup theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
This paper proposes a simple mathematical model of non-stationary and non-linear stochastic dynamics, which approximates a (globally) non-stationary and non-linear stochastic process by its locally (or \emph{ piecewise }) stationary version.

The Union of Quantum Field Theory and Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Quantum field theory is the language used to describe nature at its most fundamental scales; while thermodynamics is a framework to describe the collective behavior of macroscopic systems.

Thermal three-point functions from holographic Schwinger-Keldysh contours

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We compute fully retarded scalar three-point functions of holographic CFTs at finite temperature using real-time holography. They describe the nonlinear response of a holographic medium under scalar forcing, and display single and higher-order poles ...

Non-equilibrium field theory

open access: yes, 2001
Bödeker D. Non-equilibrium field theory. Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements. 2001;94(1-3):61-70.I discuss various topics in relativistic non-equilibrium field theory related to high energy physics and cosmology.

Out-of-equilibrium 2D Ising spin glass: Almost, but not quite, a free-field theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We consider the spatial correlation function of two-dimensional Ising spin glass under out-of-equilibrium conditions. We pay special attention to the scaling limit reached upon approaching zero temperature.

An intuitive construction of modular flow

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
The theory of modular flow has proved extremely useful for applying thermodynamic reasoning to out-of-equilibrium states in quantum field theory. However, the standard proofs of the fundamental theorems of modular flow use machinery from Fourier analysis

Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics and Conformal Field Theory

open access: yes, 2017
We present a model independent, operator algebraic approach to non-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics within the framework of two-dimensional Conformal Field Theory. Two infinite reservoirs in equilibrium at their own temperatures and chemical potentials

Energy flow in non-equilibrium conformal field theory

open access: yes, 2012
We study the energy current and its fluctuations in quantum gapless 1d systems far from equilibrium modeled by conformal field theory, where two separated halves are prepared at distinct temperatures and glued together at a point contact.
