Description

We apply a closed-path time Green's function approach as an alternative to the replica technique to formulate a non-perturbative description of cavity polaritons in the presence of a symmetry-breaking disorder. Our calculations show that the theory of Zittartz cannot be applied to the cavity polaritons with only minor modifications
