We analyze the inelastic electron-electron scattering in undoped graphene within the Keldysh diagrammatic approach. We demonstrate that finite temperature strongly affects the screening properties of graphene, which, in turn, influences the…
We show that, in low dimensional conductors, the quasiparticle decay and the relaxation of the phase are not exponential processes. In quasi-one dimension, they scale as $e^{- (t/\tau_N)^{3/2}}$ where the characteristic time $\tau_{in}$,…
Low-energy electrons scattered in the conduction band of a dielectric solid should behave like Bloch electrons and will interact with perturbations of the atomic lattice, i.e. with phonons. Thus the phonon-based description of low-energy…
We consider weakly ionized plasma where frequent elastic scattering of electrons on neutrals change the individual acts and the rate of electron-electron collisions significantly. In this case, the kinetics of electron thermalization is…
We reveal several distinct regimes of the relaxation dynamics of a small quantum system coupled to an environment within the plane of the dissipation strength and the reservoir temperature. This is achieved by discriminating between…

A weakly ionized plasma under the influence of a strong electric field is considered. Supposing a local Maxwellian distribution for the electron momenta the plasma is described by hydrodynamic equations for the pair distribution functions.…
It is commonly assumed that a large system, weakly coupled to a thermal environment through its boundaries, relaxes quasistatically towards the new equilibrium even when the temperature of the environment changes abruptly. Here we show how…
We present the Multi-Particle-Collision (MPC) dynamics approach to simulate properties of low-dimensional systems. In particular, we illustrate the method for a simple model: a one-dimensional gas of point particles interacting through…
The relaxation time of weakly interacting classical spins is calculated by introducing the averages of the local dipolar field, obtained by thermodynamic perturbation theory, in a rigorous expression for the single-spin thermoactivation…
Heat dissipation in current-carrying cryogenic nanostructures is problematic because the phonon density of states decreases strongly as energy decreases. We show that the Coulomb interaction can prove a valuable resource for carrier cooling…

We study the relaxation of the center-of-mass, or dipole oscillations in the system of interacting fermions confined spatially. With the confinement frequency $\omega_{\perp}$ fixed the particles were considered to freely move along one…
We review the mechanisms of low-temperature electron transport across a quantum dot weakly coupled to two conducting leads. Conduction in this case is controlled by the interaction between electrons. At temperatures moderately lower than…
We investigate the behaviour of a system of particles with the different character of interaction. The approach makes it possible to describe systems of interacting particles by statistical methods taking into account a spatial…
We propose a model for charge density waves in ring shaped crystals, which depicts frustration between intra- and inter-chain couplings coming from cylindrical bending. It is then mapped to a three dimensional uniformly frustrated XY model…
We investigate theoretically the energy exchange between electrons of two co-propagating, out-of-equilibrium edge states with opposite spin polarization in the integer quantum Hall regime. A quantum dot tunnel-coupled to one of the edge…
We study spin relaxation in a two-electron quantum dot in the vicinity of the singlet-triplet crossing. The spin relaxation occurs due to a combined effect of the spin-orbit, Zeeman, and electron-phonon interactions. The singlet-triplet…
The effect of weak localization on spin relaxation in a two-dimensional system with a spin-split spectrum is considered. It is shown that the spin relaxation slows down due to the interference of electron waves moving along closed paths in…
