Considering a system of N identical interacting particles, which obey Fermi-Dirac or Bose-Einstein statistics, we derive new formulas for correlation functions of the type \[ C(t)=<\sum^{N}_{i=1}A_ i(t)\sum^{N}_{j=1}B_ j> \] (where \(B_ j\) is diagonal in the free- particle states) in the thermodynamic limit. Thereby we apply and extend a superoperator formalism, recently developed for the derivation of long- time tails in semiclassical systems [the authors, Physica A, 199-243 (1988)]. As an illustrative application, the Boltzmann equation value of the time-integrated correlation function C(t) is derived in a straightforward manner. Due to exchange effects, the obtained \(\hat t- \)matrix and the resulting scattering cross section, which occurs in the Boltzmann collision operator, are now functionals of the Fermi-Dirac or Bose-Einstein distribution.
