14. For treating the case of noncollinear (general) alignments of the electrodes, see, e.g., S. Braig and P. W. Brouwer, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.71.195324 71, 195324 (2005).
15. The results presented in this paper have, therefore, no T dependence and applies to the temperature regime Γ kB Θ eV.

24. There is an inconsistency of notation in Ref.. The counting field ξ must be replaced by iξ in Eq. (20) and everywhere afterward or change its definitions before. Here, in Eq. 9 after correcting this inconsistency, we redefined iξ as ξ and iη as η.
