Abstract It is shown that the Kadanoff-Baym equations at consistent first-order gradient approximation reveal exact rather than approximate conservation laws related to global symmetries of the system. The conserved currents and energy–momentum tensor coincide with corresponding Noether quantities in the local approximation. These exact conservations are valid, provided a Φ derivable approximation is used to describe the system, and possible memory effects in the collision term are also consistently evaluated up to first-order gradients.
