The dynamics of a discrete polymer in time-dependent external potentials is studied with the master equation
approach. We consider both stochastic and deterministic switching mechanisms for the potential states and give
the essential equations for computing the stationary-state properties of molecules with internal structure in
time-dependent periodic potentials on a lattice. As an example, we consider standard and modified RubinsteinDuke
polymers and calculate their mean drift and effective diffusion coefficient in the two-state nonsymmetric
flashing potential and symmetric traveling potential. Rich nonlinear behavior of these observables is found. By
varying the polymer length, we find current inversions caused by the rebound effect that is only present for
molecules with internal structure. These results depend strongly on the polymer type. We also notice increased
transport coherence for longer polymers.

Developments in many-body theory of quantum transport and spectroscopy with non-equilibrium Green's functions and time-dependent density functional theory
Uimonen, Anna-Maija (University of Jyväskylä, 2015)The problem of quantum dynamics in open systems has gained attention in recent decades and not the least due to the advances made in quantum transport in molecular systems. The main motivation behind quantum transport ... -
Existence, uniqueness, and construction of the density-potential mapping in time-dependent density-functional theory
Ruggenthaler, Michael; Penz, Markus; van Leeuwen, Robert (Institute of Physics Publishing Ltd.; Institute of Physics, 2015)In this work we review the mapping from densities to potentials in quantum mechanics, which is the basic building block of time-dependent density-functional theory and the Kohn–Sham construction. We first present detailed ... -
Time-dependent Landauer-Büttiker formula for transient dynamics
Tuovinen, Riku; van Leeuwen, Robert; Perfetto, Enrico; Stefanucci, Gianluca (Institute of Physics, 2013)We solve analyti ally the Kadano Baym equations for a nonintera ting jun tion onne ted to an arbitrary number of nonintera ting wide-band terminals. The initial equilibrium state is properly des ribed by the ... -
Image charge dynamics in time-dependent quantum transport
Myöhänen, Petri; Tuovinen, Riku; Korhonen, Topi; Stefanucci, G.; van Leeuwen, Robert (American Physical Society, 2012)In this work, we investigate the effects of the electron-electron interaction between a molecular junction and the metallic leads in time-dependent quantum transport. We employ the recently developed embedded Kadanoff-Baym ... -
Application of time-dependent many-body perturbation theory to excitation spectra of selected finite model systems
Säkkinen, Niko (University of Jyväskylä, 2016)In this thesis, an approximate method introduced to solve time-dependent many-body problems known as time-dependent many-body perturbation theory is studied. Many-body perturbation theory for interacting electrons and ...
