contents The full counting statistics (FCS) of current has long provided fundamental insights into nonequilibrium systems. Recently, the FCS in quantum many-body systems has attracted growing attention, driven by rapid experimental progress in measuring current fluctuations. Nevertheless, for diffusive quantum many-body dynamics, the FCS of current has yet to be obtained exactly. In this Letter, we present the first exact solution for the FCS of current in a diffusive quantum many-body system, specifically a tight-binding chain with dephasing noise. By leveraging the system's SU(2) symmetry and a mapping to the one-dimensional Hubbard model, we derive an exact Fredholm determinant representation for the moment generating function of the time-integrated current. Our long-time asymptotic analysis shows that the cumulant generating function, and hence the corresponding large-deviation function, exhibit diffusive scaling for any nonzero dephasing. We compare our theoretical predictions with experimentally measured current variance and find consistent diffusive scaling.
