32. As opposed to a single-time field theory where any contribution to an observable from disconnected diagrams cancels with such a contribution to the partition function, in the double-time formalism, each disconnected diagram vanishes separately. This follows from the fact that integration in the positive and the negative directions in time gives contributions of opposite signs for disconnected diagrams.

34. Such a procedure is justified if the correlation function at hand can be correctly calculated within perturbation theory.
35. This is not the most general parametrization. In our analysis we do not include the Jacobian corresponding to this parametrization.

37. In order for the diffusion approximation for the kinetic equation to be valid, the deviation from equilibrium should be small, i.e., the energy gain between two subsequent elastic-scattering events must be small in comparison with the Fermi energy (Formula presented).

47. We note that in our open-boundary geometry, (Formula presented) appears as a natural cutoff in our diffusons. A strong dependence on (Formula presented) will show up only when the latter exceeds (Formula presented) namely, when it replaces the Thouless energy as a cutoff.

49. Note that in the present analysis we ignore weak-localization corrections. This implies that there are no (Formula presented) or (Formula presented) corrections to M, hence the current.
