We show that the density matrix for a finite conductor attached to reservoirs obtained by Keldysh formalism is of MacLennan-Zubarev form. On the basis of the fact that the density matrix is the invariant part proposed by Zubarev, it is…
Quantum simulation methods based on density-functional theory are currently deemed unfit to cope with atomic heat transport within the Green-Kubo formalism, because quantum-mechanical energy densities and currents are inherently ill-defined…
