Quantum transport in a lattice is distinct from its counterpart in continuum media. Even a free wave packet travels differently in a lattice than in the continuum. We describe quantum scattering in a one dimensional lattice using three…

We investigate the quantum transport through Kondo impurity assuming both a large number of orbital channels $\mathcal K$$\gg $$1$ for the itinerant electrons and a semi-classical spin ${\cal S}$ $\gg $ $1$ for the impurity. The non-Fermi…
A shallow potential well in a near-perfect quantum wire will bind a single-electron and behave like a quantum dot, giving rise to spin-dependent resonances of propagating electrons due to Coulomb repulsion and Pauli blocking. It is shown…
The conductance through two quantum dots in series is studied using general qualitative arguments and quantitative slave-boson mean-field theory. It is demonstrated that measurements of the conductance can explore the phase diagram of the…
We study electron transport in nanojunctions in which an electron on a quantum dot or a molecule is interacting with an N-state local impurity, a harmonic ("Holstein") mode, or a two-state system ("spin"). These two models, the…
