In this paper we review recent theoretical results for transport in a one-dimensional (1d) Luttinger liquid. For simplicity, we ignore electron spin, and focus exclusively on the case of a single-mode. Moreover, we consider only the effects…
We study one-electron tunneling through atomic-scale one-dimensional wires in the presence of coherent electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling. We use a full quantum model for the e-ph interaction within the wire with open boundary conditions. We…
Two electrons move in a quasi one--dimensional wire under the influence of a short--range interaction. We restrict Hilbert space to those states where the two electrons are close to each other. Using supersymmetry, we present a complete…

Electron interactions in and between wires become increasingly complex and important as circuits are scaled to nanometre sizes, or employ reduced-dimensional conductors like carbon nanotubes, nanowires and gated high mobility 2D electron…
In the literature, the study of electron transport in quantum devices is mainly devoted to DC properties. The fluctuations of the electrical current around these DC values, the so-called quantum noise, are much less analyzed. The…
