Abstract

We present a microscopic Fermi-liquid view on the low-energy transport through an Anderson impurity with NN discrete levels, at arbitrary electron filling NdN_d. It is applied to nonequilibrium current fluctuations, for which the two-quasiparticle collision integral and the three-body correlations that determine the quasiparticle energy shift play important roles. Using the numerical renormalization group up to N=6N=6, we find that for strong interactions the three-body fluctuations are determined by a single parameter other than the Kondo energy scale in a wide filling range 1NdN11 \lesssim N_d \lesssim N-1. It significantly affects the current noise for N>2N>2 and the behavior of noise in magnetic fields.
