Abstract
In a recent Rapid Communication [A. Stan, Phys. Rev. B 93, 041103(R) (2016)], the reliability of the Keldysh-Kadanoff-Baym equations (KBE) using correlated self-energy approximations applied to linear and nonlinear response has been questioned. In particular, the existence of a universal attractor has been predicted that would drive the dynamics of any correlated system towards an unphysical homogeneous density distribution regardless of the system type, the interaction, and the many-body approximation. Moreover, it was conjectured that even the mean-field dynamics would be damped. Here, by performing accurate solutions of the KBE for situations studied in that paper, we prove these claims wrong, being caused by numerical inaccuracies.
