Abstract

The strength of fluctuations, as measured by their variance, is paramount in the quantitative description of a large class of physical systems, ranging from simple and complex liquids to active fluids and solids. Fluctuations originate from the irregular motion of thermal degrees of freedom and statistical mechanics facilitates their description. Here we demonstrate that fluctuations are constrained by the inherent symmetries of the given system. For particle-based classical many-body systems, Noether invariance at second order in the symmetry parameter leads to exact sum rules. These identities interrelate the global force variance with the mean potential energy curvature. Noether invariance is restored by an exact balance between these distinct mechanisms. The sum rules provide a practical guide for assessing and constructing theories, for ensuring self-consistency in simulation work, and for providing a systematic pathway to the theoretical quantification of fluctuations.
