Nonequilibrium time evolution in quantum field theory

Year: 1997

Type: article

Abstract: The time development of equal-time correlation functions in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory is described by an exact evolution equation for generating functionals. This permits a comparison between classical and quantum evolution in nonequilibrium systems.
