Fluctuation-dissipation relation for stochastic dynamics without detailed balance.
We show that the fluctuation-dissipation relation can be established for a class of stochastic dynamics that lack detailed balance. This class comprises lattice spin models whose time evolution is governed by a master equation with a one-spin-flip transition rate having the up-down symmetry. The relation is obtained by the introduction of a multiplicative perturbation of the transition rate, which reduces to the usual perturbation when detailed balance is fulfilled. As a part of the derivation we set up an equivalent two-spin-flip stochastic dynamics that conserves the magnetization.
