53. In some cases, the results show some oscillations at small times. This effect may be related with the oscillations described by N. S. Wingreen, A. P. Jauho, and Y. Meir, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.48.8487 48, R 8487 (1993). We thank P. Schmitteckert for pointing out this reference to us. However, at large times the oscillations give an indication of the numerical errors.
