" Real-time diagrammatic Monte Carlo for nonequilibrium quantum
transport"
Abstract
We propose a novel approach to nonequilibrium real-time dynamics of
quantum impurities models coupled to biased non-interacting leads,
such as those relevant to quantum transport in nanoscale molecular
devices. The method is based on a Diagrammatic Monte Carlo sampling
of the real-time perturbation theory along the Keldysh contour. We
benchmark the method on a non-interacting resonant level model and,
as a first non-trivial application, we study zero temperature non-
equilibrium transport through a vibrating molecule.
