We propose and investigate an exactly solvable model of non-equilibrium Luttinger liquid on a star graph, modeling a multi-terminal quantum wire junction. The boundary condition at the junction is fixed by an orthogonal matrix S, which describes the splitting of the electric current among the leads. The system is driven away from equilibrium by connecting the leads to heat baths at different temperatures and chemical potentials. The associated non-equilibrium steady state depends on S and is explicitly constructed. In this context we develop a non-equilibrium bosonization procedure and compute some basic correlation functions. Luttinger liquids with general anyon statistics are considered. The relative momentum distribution away from equilibrium turns out to be the convolution of equilibrium anyon distributions at different temperatures. Both the charge and heat transport are studied. The exact current-current correlation function is derived and the zero-frequency noise power is determined.

The paper
Original abstract
We propose and investigate an exactly solvable model of non-equilibrium Luttinger liquid on a star graph, modeling a multi-terminal quantum wire junction. The boundary condition at the junction is fixed by an orthogonal matrix S, which describes the splitting of the electric current among the leads. The system is driven away from equilibrium by connecting the leads to heat baths at different temperatures and chemical potentials. The associated non-equilibrium steady state depends on S and is explicitly constructed. In this context we develop a non-equilibrium bosonization procedure and compute some basic correlation functions. Luttinger liquids with general anyon statistics are considered. The relative momentum distribution away from equilibrium turns out to be the convolution of equilibrium anyon distributions at different temperatures. Both the charge and heat transport are studied. The exact current-current correlation function is derived and the zero-frequency noise power is determined.

For $τ≠τ^'$, the result is [equation] which, up to the overall normalization factor, exactly coincides with the chiral half of the two-point Wightman function for $(1+1)$-dimensional anyon field at finite temperature $T=a/(2π)$ [ref] , where the proper time $τ$ plays the role of the light-cone coordinates $x^±=x^0±x^1$ of two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime.

The normalization of ([ref]) is fixed [ref] by the Ward identities associated with the electric charge$Q_+$and the helicity$Q_-$defined by [equation] The normalization of ([ref]) in turn is determined by the conservation law [equation] Plugging ([ref],[ref],[ref]) in the quantum equations of motion [equation] one finds [equation] Moreover, the exchange relation ([ref]) implies [equation] Eqs. ([ref],[ref],[ref]) provide a system for determining$v$and$ζ_±$(or equivalently$σ$and$τ$) in terms of$$̨ and $g_±$.

Non-linear effects are absent in the critical regime under consideration, which implies the conductance tensor [equation] We see that the NESS approach, adopted in this paper, confirms the result for $$, obtained previously for $=̨1$ by different methods, including renormalization group techniques [ref] , linear response theory [ref] and conformal field theory [ref] .
