A Nonequilibrium Variational Polaron Theory to Study Quantum Heat Transport
We propose a nonequilibrium variational polaron transformation, based on an ansatz for nonequilibrium steady state with an effective temperature, to study quantum heat transport at the nanoscale. By combining the variational polaron transformed master equation with the full counting statistics, we e...
