Abstract
The authors present a model Hamiltonian for the description of open systems that exchange probability current density with their surroundings. The complex potentials appearing in this Hamiltonian act as source and sink, respectively, of probability current density. The primary applications of the theory of source and sink potentials are molecular electronic devices (MEDs), in the description of which the semi-infinite contacts are replaced by complex potentials. This is done in a rigorous manner, i.e., the exact wave function is recovered in the interior of the MED. To illustrate the approach, certain prototypical molecular conductors are considered in the Huckel approximation. The authors show that, for the examples considered, there exist almost isolated molecular states in the continuum of contact states that manifest themselves as Fano resonances in the transmission probability. The findings are confirmed by density functional theory calculations that also yield the predicted molecular states that are nearly decoupled from the contacts.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
