Diagonalization of propagators in thermo field dynamics for relativistic quantum fields

Abstract

Two-point functions for interacting quantum fields in statistical systems can be diagnolized by matrix transformations. It is shown, that within the framework of time-dependent Thermo Field Dynamics this diagonalization can be understood as a thermal Bogoliubov transformation to non-interacting statistical quasi-particles. The condition for their unperturbed propagation relates these states to the thermodynamic properties of the system: It requires global equilibrium for stationary situations, or specifies the time evolution according to a kinetic equation. (orig.).
