Fermi-liquid theory for a conductance through an interacting region attached to noninteracting leads
Abstract
We study the relation between the dc conductance and the transmission through an interacting region based on the Kubo formalism using the perturbation analysis in the Coulomb interaction developed by Yamada-Yosida and Shiba. We find that the contributions of the vertex correction to the dc conductance disappear at T=0 if the currents are measured in the noninteracting leads. Consequently, the dc conductance is written in a Landauer-type form using the transmission coefficient for single-particle-like excitation at the Fermi energy. The results are generalized to a system with a number of scattering channels, and may be regarded as an extension of the relation derived by Fisher-Lee.
