Energy current and its statistics in the nonequilibrium spin-boson model: Majorana fermion representation

We study the statistics of thermal energy transfer in the nonequilibrium (two-bath) spin-boson model. This quantum many-body impurity system serves as a canonical model for quantum energy transport. Our method makes use of the Majorana fermion representation for the spin operators, in combination wi...
