Abstract

Abstract This Addendum presents a detailed analysis of the discretization error in time-integration and time-derivative that appear in the Nakajima-Zwanzig equation. This was brought to our attention by Makri et al. [arXiv:2410.08239]. Our analysis in the Addendum shows that the relationship derived in our earlier work [Nat. Commun. 15, 8087 (2024)] is valid within the choice of discretization and is not contaminated by the discretization error.
