Navier-Stokes equations are known as hydrodynamic equations which take account of effects of dissipations. There are, however, problems in the relativistic Navier-Stokes equations, i.e. the equations violate causality. Israel-Stewart equations, which evade the problems of Navier-Stokes equations by introducing new parameters, such as the relaxation times, have recently been used in describing the space-time evolution of the quark-gluon plasma produced in high energy heavy ion collisions. The viscosities and the relaxation times are related to each other by imposing entropy constraints on the system. According to Boltzmann-Einstein principle, the probability distribution of the fluctuation in the energy-momentum tensor is related to the entropy of the system. Applying this principle to the entropy in Israel-Stewart theory, one can obtain the ratios of the viscosities to the relaxation times. We evaluate the ratios of the viscosities to the relaxation times in SU(3) lattice gauge theory.
