We apply the Keldysh formalism in order to derive a current formula easy to use for a system with many sites, one of which is interacting. The main technical challenge is to deal with the lesser Green function. It turns out that, in the…
Exact formulas for the Hall coefficient, modified Nernst coefficient, and thermal Hall coefficient of metals are derived from the Kubo formula. These coefficients depend exclusively on equilibrium (time independent) susceptibilities, which…

Most of the investigations to date on tight-binding, quantum percolation models focused on the quantum percolation threshold, i.e., the analogue to the Anderson transition. It appears to occur if roughly 30% of the hopping terms are…
Conventional wisdom teaches us that the electrical conductivity in a material is the inverse of its resistivity. In this work, we show that when both of these transport coefficients are defined in linear response through the Kubo formulae…
