• Abstract: We introduce a unified theoretical framework for single-plasmon transport in one-dimensional nanowires, bridging the quantized electromagnetic Green's tensor formalism with effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian models. This approach naturally incorporates propagating surface plasmon polaritons, high-order modes dissipative channels, and intrinsic losses. We investigate both the stationary regime and the spatio-temporal dynamics of a single-plasmon pulse travelling through an atomic chain coupled to a dispersive nanowire. We analyze modal contributions to reflection and transmission spectra for quantum emitter coupled to a silver nanowire, a configuration proposed as a single-plasmon transistor, and we demonstrate that optimized multi-emitter systems offer significant advantages. In case of one quantum emitter coupled to a silver nanowire at telecom wavelengths, we predict a single-plasmon transmittivity down to 7\% under realistic conditions, and an atomic qubit population of 12\%. Extension to multi-emitter systems using a Löwdin orthogonalization procedure enables a consistent treatment of collective interactions. We show that optimized positioning with just five emitters enhances plasmon modulation, achieving a transmittivity of 2\% but also reduces coupling losses to one-third compared to the single-emitter case. Our results establish a robust foundation for analyzing and designing plasmonic waveguide quantum electrodynamics systems.
