The purpose of this publication is to offer a formula of the non-equilibrium physics in nanoscale structures when it comes to many-body states and operators and, furthermore, speak about a diagrammatic method of eco-friendly services expressed by way of many-body states. The goal isn't really to provide an account of strongly correlated platforms as such. hence, the focal point of this booklet ensues from the common questions that come up whilst addressing nanoscale platforms from a pragmatic standpoint, e.g. current-voltage asymmetries, unfavorable differential conductance, spin-dependent tunneling. the focal point is on nanoscale structures constructed from complexes of subsystems interacting with each other, less than non-equilibrium stipulations, within which the neighborhood homes of the subsystems are ideally being defined when it comes to its (many-body) eigenstates.

58), we arrive at the equation nkσ δ(ω − εkσ ) = e−β(ω−μ) (1 − nkσ )δ(ω − εkσ ). g. equilibrium theory. 48b) to find the retarded and advanced Green functions. We now turn our attention to the isolated system Hloc and consider the propagators ga b¯ (t, t ) and kξ ζ¯ (t, t ). 62b) ¯ where Qξ ζ (t) = [Z ξ , Z ζ ](t) . Following the previous discussion about the boundary conditions for Hubbard operator Green functions, it is clear that we have the boundary conditions gab¯ (t0 − iβ, t) and kξ<ζ¯ (t0 , t) = kξ>ζ¯ (t0 − iβ, t).

The Green functions, which from now on shall form the basic tool in our discussions of many-electron systems, are thermodynamic averages of products of operators. g. G(r, r ; t, t ) = (−i) Tψ(r, t)ψ † (r , t ) , where T is the time-ordering operator. The time-ordering operator acts on the other operators in the average such that G(r, r ; t, t ) = (−i) ψ(r, t)ψ † (r , t ) , (∓i) ψ † (r , t )ψ(r, t) , t >t , t

3) This expression is very general since we do not make any assumptions of the band structure in the leads, we have not replaced the k summation with energy integration over the density of states. e. 4) 0 (ε) = 2π|vχ0 σ Nnm (ε)|2 ρχ0 . Here, vχ0 σ Nnm (ε) is a function of energy where Γσ Nnm ε which equals vkσ Nnm whenever the ε equals εkσ . e. 4), it is clear that the current flowing from (to) the lead χ0 is determined by the occupations NN n and NN+1m in the states |N, n and |N + 1, m , respectively, and the transition energy ΔN+1m,N n between those states.
