Abstract
The exchange coupling of the helical edge state of a quantum spin-Hall insulator with an easy-plane magnet has no effect on its DC electrical conductance if the magnet's anisotropy axis is aligned with the spin quantization axis of the helical edge state [Meng et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 205403 (2014)]. We here calculate the AC conductance and the noise power in the presence of a DC bias . While both take the universal values and in the zero-frequency limit, and are quickly suppressed for finite , so that low-frequency transport is effectively noiseless.
