abstract

Uncharged relativistic fluids in 3+1 dimensions have three independent thermodynamic transport coefficients at second order in the derivative expansion. Fluids with a single global $U(1)$ current have nine, out of which seven are parity preserving. We derive the Kubo formulas for all nine thermodynamic transport coefficients in terms of equilibrium correlation functions of the energy-momentum tensor and the current. All parity-preserving coefficients can be expressed in terms of two-point functions in flat space without external sources, while the parity-violating coefficients require three-point functions. We use the Kubo formulas to compute the thermodynamic coefficients in several examples of free field theories.

  • Universal analytic dependence of the stress-energy tensor at thermodynamic equilibrium in curved space-time hep-th · 2026-04-15 · unverdicted · none · ref 27

    The analytic part of the stress-energy tensor at thermodynamic equilibrium has a universal covariant form independent of specific curved spacetime geometry for the massless scalar field, argued to hold for any quantum field theory.
