# Duality relations for charge transfer statistics

## TL;DR

This paper uncovers duality relations in charge transfer statistics that connect different system realizations, generalize fluctuation-dissipation relations to non-equilibrium, and extend to interacting systems like the Kondo model.

## Contribution

It introduces duality relations for cumulant generating functions in charge transfer, applicable to both non-interacting and interacting systems, broadening understanding of charge transport statistics.

## Key findings

- Duality relations connect CGFs of different system realizations.
- Derived infinite relations between cumulants, generalizing fluctuation-dissipation.
- Established duality for interacting systems like the Kondo impurity.

## Abstract

By a detailed study of the mathematical structure of the cumulant generating function (CGF) of particle transfer in the non-interacting case we show that it satisfies duality relations connecting the CGFs of two different realizations of the same system. Employing these identities we derive an infinite number of relations between different cumulants, which amounts to a generalization of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem to non-equilibrium situations. We generalize the concept to multi-terminal set-ups and show that duality relations also exist for genuinely interacting systems by explicitly deriving one of them for the two-terminal anisotropic Kondo impurity model and discussing other important examples. The discovered identities are useful tools in the ongoing investigation of the analytical properties of the cumulant generating functions of charge transport.
