Abstract
We discuss the roles of viscosity in relativistic fluid dynamics from the point of view of memory effects. Depending on the type of quantity to which the memory effect is applied, different terms appear in higher order corrections. We show that when the memory effect applies on the extensive quantities, the hydrodynamic equations of motion become non-singular. We further discuss the question of memory effect in the derivation of transport coefficients from a microscopic theory. We generalize the application of the Green–Kubo–Nakano (GKN) formula to calculate transport coefficients in the framework of projection operator formalism, and derive the general formula when the fluid is non-Newtonian.
