Finite temperature field theory and phase transitions

M Quiros - Proceedings, Summer school in high-energy physics …, 1998 - World Scientific
We review different aspects of field theory at zero and finite temperature, related to the
theory of phase transitions. We discuss different renormalization conditions for the effective …

Hard thermal QCD, forward scattering and effective actions

J Frenkel, JC Taylor - Nuclear Physics B, 1992 - Elsevier
We study the high-temperature behaviour of the n-point function to one-loop order in thermal
QCD, in the analytic continuation of the imaginary-time formalism. Using ideas of Barton, we …

Generalized fluctuation-dissipation theorem for nonlinear response functions

E Wang, U Heinz - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
A nonlinear generalization of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) for the n-point Green
functions and the amputated one particle irreducible vertex functions at finite temperature is …

N-point finite temperature expectation values at real times

TS Evans - Nuclear Physics B, 1992 - Elsevier
In both the real-and imaginary-time formalisms of finite-temperature field theory it is shown
exactly what types of real-time expectation value are being calculated. The relationship …

A comparison of the real-time and the imaginary-time formalisms of finite-temperature field theory for 2, 3 and 4-point Green functions

P Aurenche, T Becherrawy - Nuclear Physics B, 1992 - Elsevier
We compare the predictions of the real-time and the imaginary-time formalisms of finite
temperature field theory. We construct, in the real-time formalism, retarded and advanced …

Thermal out-of-time-order correlators, KMS relations, and spectral functions

FM Haehl, R Loganayagam, P Narayan… - Journal of High Energy …, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We describe general features of thermal correlation functions in quantum systems,
with specific focus on the fluctuation-dissipation type relations implied by the KMS condition …

Introduction to thermal field theory

T Altherr - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 1993 - World Scientific
This is a very basic introduction and short (and of course incomplete) overview of thermal
field theory. In the first part, I introduce the thermal propagator at a very simple level and give …

Spectral representation of thermal OTO correlators

S Chaudhuri, C Chowdhury… - Journal of High Energy …, 2019 - Springer
A bstract We study the spectral representation of finite temperature, out of time ordered
(OTO) correlators on the multi-time-fold generalised Schwinger-Keldysh contour. We write …

Retarded functions, dispersion relations, and Cutkosky rules at zero and finite temperature

R Kobes - Physical Review D, 1991 - APS
Some properties at zero and finite temperature in the real-time formalism of a sum of graphs,
previously shown in some examples to be equivalent to the retarded product, are discussed …

Shear-induced anomalous transport and charge asymmetry of triangular flow in heavy-ion collisions

M Buzzegoli, DE Kharzeev, YC Liu, S Shi, SA Voloshin… - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
Chiral anomaly implies the existence of nondissipative transport phenomena, such as the
chiral magnetic effect. At second order in the derivative expansion, novel quantum transport …
