The Relaxation Effect in Dissipative Relativistic Fluid Theories
read the original abstract
The dynamics of the fluid fields in a large class of causal dissipative fluid theories is studied. It is shown that the physical fluid states in these theories must relax (on a time scale that is characteristic of the microscopic particle interactions) to ones that are essentially indistinguishable from the simple relativistic Navier-Stokes descriptions of these states. Thus, for example, in the relaxed form of a physical fluid state the stress energy tensor is in effect indistinguishable from a perfect fluid stress tensor plus small dissipative corrections proportional to the shear of the fluid velocity, the gradient of the temperature, etc.

How acausal equations emerge from causal dynamics
A causal microscopic kinetic model can reproduce arbitrary rest-frame stable dissipative dispersion relations at real k through suitable initialization, providing a counterexample to claims that micro-causality alone ...

Lorentz-boosted diffusion: initial value formulation and exact solutions
Lorentz-boosted diffusion becomes a well-posed initial-value problem on a band-limited (Paley-Wiener) function space, with an exact closed-form Shannon-Whittaker Green function.

The diffusion equation is compatible with special relativity
A relativistic kinetic theory (Vlasov–Fokker–Planck) has an exact subsector whose particle density evolves by Fick's law at all wavelengths, reconciling diffusion with causality and stability.

The initial data of effective field theories of relativistic viscous fluids and gravity
Initial data for the unphysical modes in well-posed EFTs should be fixed by order reduction, which suppresses fast modes without altering the equations of motion.
