Abstract

The short time behavior of a disturbed system is influenced by off-shell motion and characterized by the reduced density matrix possessing high energetic tails. After this short time regime the time evolution is controlled by small gradients. This leads to a nonlocal Boltzmann equation for the quasiparticle distribution and a functional relating the latter one to the reduced density matrix. The nonlocalities are presented as time and space shifts arising from gradient expansion and are leading to virial corrections in the thermodynamical limit.
