| dc.description | Recently von Delft (cond-mat/0510563v1)(JvD) has successfully re-derived our influence functional for interacting electrons and claimed that within our approach he was able to obtain the electron decoherence rate that vanishes at T=0. In this Comment we demonstrate that this JvD's claim is in error, as it is based on ambiguous and uncontrolled manipulations violating basic principles of quantum theory, such as energy-time uncertainty relation, causality, fluctuation-dissipation theorem, detailed balance and the like. We also briefly address insufficient approximations employed by Marquardt {\it et al.} (cond-mat/0510556v1) and by von Delft {\it et al.} (cond-mat/0510557v1) and demonstrate that the results of all three papers in the limit T=0 are inconsistent with simple rules of algebra. | |
