The existence of a length-scale $\xi_K\sim 1/T_K$ (with $T_K$ the Kondo temperature) has long been predicted in quantum impurity systems. At low temperatures $T\ll T_K$, the standard interpretation is that a spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}$ impurity is…

The properties of a local spin S=1/2 coupled to K independent wires is studied in the presence of bias voltages which drive the system out of thermal equilibrium. For K >> 1, a perturbative renormalization group approach is employed to…
We investigate the entanglement properties of the Kondo spin chain when it is prepared in its ground state as well as its dynamics following a single bond quench. We show that a true measure of entanglement such as negativity enables to…
A novel large-N limit of the multichannel Kondo model is introduced, for representations of the impurity spin described by Schwinger bosons. Three cases are found, associated with underscreening, overscreening and exact Kondo screening of…

A quantum spin impurity coupled to a critical free field (the Bose-Kondo model) can be represented as a 0+1D field theory with long-range-in-time interactions that decay as $|t-t'|^{-(2-\delta)}$. This theory is a simpler analogue of…
