The fluctuation-dissipation theorem is not expected to hold for systems that either violate detailed balance of have time-dependent or nonpotential forces. Therefore, the relation between response and correlation functions should have contributions due to the nonequilibrium nature. An explicit formula for such a contribution is calculated, which in the present derivation appears as a history-dependent term. These relations are the Ward-Takahashi identifies of a supersymmetric formulation of the Langevin models, and the new term results from a broken supersymmetry. 29 refs.
