Does the fluctuation-dissipation relation guarantee equilibrium?

Abstract

We study a symmetry broken harmonic oscillator in contact with a heat bath characterized by a fixed temperature. The overdampped system is solved exactly to show symmetry broken directed transport raising the question whether fluctuation-dissipation relation does guarantee equilibrium.
