A diffusive trajectory drawn by the generalized Langevin equation (GLE) for a colloidal particle evokes a random fractal of a static polymer configuration. This article proposes a static GLE-like description that enables the generation of a single configuration of a polymer chain with the noise formulated to satisfy the static fluctuation-response relation (FRR) along a one-dimensional chain structure but not along a temporal coordinate. A remarkable point is qualitative differences and similarities in the FRR formulation between the static and the dynamic GLEs. Guided by the static FRR, we further make analogous arguments in light of stochastic energetics and the steady-state fluctuation theorem.
