In dissipative dynamical systems phase space volumes contract, on average. Therefore, the invariant measure on the attractor is singular with respect to the Lebesgue measure. As noted by Ruelle, a generic perturbation pushes the state out…

Liouville's theorem, based on the Hamiltonian flow (micro-canonical ensemble) for a many particle system, indicates that the (stationary) equilibrium probability distribution is a function of the Hamiltonian. A canonical ensemble…
I examine the arguments which have been given for quantum fluctuation-dissipation theorems. I distinguish between a weak form of the theorem, which is true under rather general conditions, and a strong form which requires a Langevin…
