The question is what is $G$. Does it depend on the transmission $g_0$ of the scatterer? Does the answer depend on whether the system is open (with leads attached to reservoirs) or closed? In the latter case: what are the implications of having ``quantum chaos\" and/or coupling to to the environment? The answers to these questions illuminate some fundamental aspects of the theory of quantum pumping. For the analysis we take a network (graph) as a model system, and use the Kubo formula approach.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2005-03-07T06:34:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum pumping", "translation", "kubo formula approach", "quantum chaos" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
