On Theory of the Statistical Generating Functional for the Order Parameter(I) — General Formalism

Abstract

A theoretical scheme using closed time-path Green’s functions is proposed to describe the quantum statistical properties of the order parameter in terms of a generating functional. The dynamic evolution, is generated by a driving source, while the statistical correlation by a fluctuation source. The statistical causality is shown to hold explicitly and to give rise to a number of important consequences. The problem of determining the quantum statistical properties for the order parameter is reduced to finding a solution of the functional equation for it.
