Abstract
An approach is developed for the calculation of fluctuations in an ens emble of systems obeying Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac or Bose-Einste in statistics, and in which a specified set of physical quantities is conserved. The technique is applied to two situations of interest: in the first only energy is conserved while in the second both energy and number are conserved.
