Abstract: The basic quantum mechanical relation between fluctuations of transported charge and current correlators is discussed. It is found that, as a rule, the correlators are to be time-ordered in an unusual way. Instances where the difference with the conventional ordering matters are illustrated by means of a simple scattering model. We apply the results to resolve a discrepancy concerning the third cumulant of charge transport across a quantum point contact.
The authors study the quantum mechanical relation between fluctuations of transported charge and current correlators. They show that the relation between the counting statistics and the time ordering of correlators, which turns out that the correct time ordering differs from the conventional one. In particular, they present a model of energy independent scattering, where that difference matters. Finally, they apply the result to resolve a discrepancy concerning the third cumulant of the charge transport across a tunnel junction.
