The renormalized dynamics described by the equations of nonlinear fluctuating hydrodynamics (NFH) treated at one loop order gives rise to the basic model of the mode coupling theory (MCT). We investigate here by analyzing the density correlation function, a crucial prediction of ideal MCT, namely the validity of the multi step relaxation scenario. The equilibrium density correlation function is calculated here from the direct solutions of NFH equations for a hard sphere system. We make first detailed investigation for the robustness of the correlation functions obtained from the numerical solutions by varying the size of the grid. For an optimum choice of grid size we analyze the decay of the density correlation function to identify the multi-step relaxation process. Weak signatures of two step power law relaxation is seen with exponents which do not match predictions from the one loop MCT. For the final relaxation stretched exponential (KWW) behavior is seen and the relaxation time grows with increase of density. But apparent power law divergences indicate a critical packing fraction much higher than the corresponding MCT predictions for a hard sphere fluid.

Multiparticle thermodynamic Green’s functions, defined in terms of grand canonical ensemble averages of time-ordered products of creation and annihilation operators, are interpreted as tracing the amplitude for time-developing correlated interacting particle motions taking place in the background of a thermal ensemble. Under equilibrium conditions, time-translational invariance permits the one-particle thermal Green’s function to be represented in terms of a single frequency, leading to a Lehmann spectral representation whose frequency poles describe the energy spectrum. This Green’s function has finite values for both t>t′ and t<t′ (unlike retarded Green’s functions), and the two parts G1> and G1< (respectively) obey a simple proportionality relation that facilitates the introduction of a spectral weight function: It is also interpreted in terms of a periodicity/antiperiodicity property of a modified Green’s function in imaginary time capable of a Fourier series representation with imaginary (Matsubara) frequencies. The analytic continuation from imaginary time to real time is discussed, as are related commutator/anticommutator functions, also retarded/advanced Green’s functions, and the spectral weight sum rule is derived. Statistical thermodynamic information is shown to be embedded in physical features of the one- and two-particle thermodynamic Green’s functions.

A first-order differential equation of Green's function, at the origin G(0), for the one-dimensional lattice is derived by simple recurrence relation. Green's function at site (m) is then calculated in terms of G(0). A simple recurrence relation connecting the lattice Green's function at the site (m, n) and the first derivative of the lattice Green's function at the site (m ± 1, n) is presented for the two-dimensional lattice, a differential equation of second order in G(0, 0) is obtained. By making use of the latter recurrence relation, lattice Green's function at an arbitrary site is obtained in closed form. Finally, the phase shift and scattering cross-section are evaluated analytically and numerically for one- and two-impurities.
