An equilibrium system which is perturbed by an external potential relaxes to a new equilibrium state, a process obeying the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. In contrast, perturbing by nonconservative forces yields a nonequilibrium steady…

We review how unitarity and stationarity in the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism naturally lead to a (quantum) generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation (gFDR) that works beyond thermal equilibrium. Non-Gaussian loop corrections are also…
