The Green-Kubo relations [1] [2] are expressions that relate macroscopic transport coefficients to integrals of microscopic time correlation functions. In general one has
where is the linear transport coefficient and is the flux.
Shear viscosity[edit]
The shear viscosity is related to the pressure tensor via
i.e. the integral of the autocorrelation of the off-diagonal components of the microscopic stress tensor.
Fluctuation theorem[edit]
The Green-Kubo relations can be derived from the Evans-Searles transient fluctuation theorem[3]
