\item In Langevin analysis (e.g. \citet{1975JFM....72..499H}) we define inertia and friction tensors $\mathbf{m}$ and $\mathbf\zeta$, which act on the derivative of the system's state vector $\mathbf{\dot x}$. What does it mean when these are symmetrical? What does it mean when they are diagonal?
\begin{itemize}
\item
Apparently in Diagonalise the inertia tensor -- reduce the motion to its modes.
\item In regimes far from equilibrium, $\mathbf\zeta$ stops being symmetrical.
\end{itemize}
