Abstract
AbstractAn overview of a many‐body approach to calculation of electronic transport in molecular systems is given. The physics required to describe electronic transport through a molecule at the many‐body level, without relying on commonly made assumptions such as the Landauer formalism or linear response theory, is discussed. Physically, our method relies on the incorporation of scattering boundary conditions into a many‐body wavefunction and application of the maximum entropy principle to the transport region. Mathematically, this simple physical model translates into a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. A strategy for solving the constrained optimization problem is given. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2004
