Abstract
The real time finite temperature Green functions necessary for perturbations in general relativity are obtained in the scheme of thermo field dynamics. As an application, the author calculates the one-loop effective potential in the real scalar theory in the general curved space background in the normal coordinate expansion. The author also provides a basic formula needed for evaluating the transport coefficients by calculating the imaginary part of a scalar self-energy diagram.Keywords
