Fluctuation-dissipation theorems and second order statistics of many-body systems described by means of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations and Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations — •Till Daniel Frank — Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Münster, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 9, 48149 Münster, Germany

In line with mean field theory, we study stochastic properties of many-body systems in terms of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, in general, and Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations, in particular. We show that the first order statistics of these models can be embedded into second and higher order statistics defined by self-consistent Langevin equations. We exploit this approach to derive exact analytical expressions for two-time point joint probability densities for some benchmark models and to address the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. In addition, we derive analytical expressions for short-time correlation functions and show how to determine time correlation functions in general in terms of hierarchies of coupled differential equations.
