Recently some experimental evidences have been obtained in favour of the existence of the inhomogeneous Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) superconducting state in heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn_{5} and organic superconductor -(BETS)_{2}FeCl_{4}. However the unambiguous identification of FFLO state remains very difficult. We present the theoretical studies of the Gaussian fluctuations near the tricritical point (where the FFLO modulation appears) and demonstrate that the behavior of the fluctuational specific heat, paraconductivity and diamagnetism is qualitatively different from the usual superconducting transition. Special values of the critical exponent and the crossovers between different fluctuational regimes may provide a unique test for the FFLO state appearance.Read less <
