Abstract

For systems close to equilibrium, the relaxation properties of measurable physical quantities are described by the linear response theory and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT). Accordingly, the response or the generalized susceptibility, which is a function of the unperturbed equilibrium system, can be related to the correlation between spontaneous fluctuations of a given conjugate variable. There have been several attempts to extend the FDT far from equilibrium, introducing new terms or using effective temperatures. Recently, Prost, Joanny, and Parrondo [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 090601 (2009)] have shown that the FDT can be restored far from equilibrium by choosing the appropriate variables conjugate to the external perturbations. Here, we apply the generalized FDT to a system perturbed by time-dependent deterministic forces and acting under the influence of white alpha-stable noises. ; Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures
