20. This measure of heterogeneity relates to a specific functional form for intrinsic and macroscopic responses, but it is obvious that analogous definitions can be given for other forms.

30. Note that the heterogeneity of response functions is due to a distribution of dynamically distinguishable contributions, while e.g. in optical or NMR spectroscopy the inhomogeneous broadening is often due the presence of (static) molecular orientations or local configurations etc.
31. in = 1 can occur. However, via simulations in principle they can be taken into account, see Ref. [6].

41. Non-Gaussian propagators are well known when dealing with restricted diffusion, however in the present discussion we focus on overall spatially uniform systems.
42. Of course also in systems describable by a single Fickian diffusion coefficient, different particles in a given time in general move across different distances which obviously is not the issue of concern here.
