โฆ Synopsis
Green's function techniques for studying nonequilibrium quantum processes are discussed. Perturbation expansions and Green's function equations of motion are developed for noncorrelated and correlated initial states of a system. A transition, from the Kadanoff-Baym Green's function equations of motion to the Boltzmann equation, and specifications of the respective limit, are examined in detail.

Bringing together the key ideas from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and powerful methodology from quantum field theory, this book captures the essence of nonequilibrium quantum field theory. Beginning with the foundational aspects of the theory, the book presents important concepts and useful
A general method is worked out on the basis of principles of Gibbs' statistical mechanics which allows to find stationary probabilities and transition probabilities for physical quantities provided either the behaviour of their mean values or the general form of corresponding equations of motion (La
