Abstract

We discuss the structure and asymptotic long-time properties of coupled equations for the moments of a Brownian particle's momentum derived microscopically beyond the lowest approximation in the weak coupling parameter. Generalized fluctuation-dissipation relations are derived and shown to ensure convergence to thermal equilibrium at any order of perturbation theory.
