We show that the scaling exponent for tunneling into a quantum wire in the "Coulomb Tonks gas" regime of impenetrable, but otherwise free, electrons is affected by impurity scattering in the wire. The exponent for tunneling into such a wire…
We study theoretically the parallel quantum wires of the experiment by Auslaender et al. [Science 308, 88 (2005)] at low electron density. It is shown that a Hall effect as observed in two- or three-dimensional electron systems develops as…

We investigate a possibility of pair electron-electron e-e collisions in a ballistic wire with spin-orbit coupling and only one populated mode. Unlike in a spin-degenerate system, a combination of spin-splitting in momentum space with a…

Interactions in one-dimensional (1D) electron systems are expected to cause a dynamical separation of electronic spin and charge degrees of freedom. A promising system for experimental observation of this non-Fermi-liquid effect consists of…
We investigate a one-dimensional wire of interacting electrons connected to semi-infinite leads in the absence and in the presence of a backscattering potential. An incident electron on the clean wire is perfectly transmitted into spatially…
Quantum tunneling from a thin wire or a thin film through a static potential barrier in a zero magnetic field is studied. The wire or the film should satisfy a condition of transverse quantization of levels and be inhomogeneous. Depending…
We present evidence for spin-charge separation in the tunneling spectrum of a system consisting of two quantum wires connected by a long narrow tunnel junction at the edge of a GaAs/AlGaAs bilayer heterostructure. Multiple excitation…
In magnets with strong quantum fluctuations, paramagnetic ground states with or without confinement of spinon excitations can be realized. Here we discuss the physics of the confined phase in the vicinity of a confinement--deconfinement…
The transport properties of a tunnel barrier in a one-dimensional wire are investigated at finite voltages and temperatures. We generalize the Luttinger model to account for finite ranges of the interaction. This leads to deviations from…
We investigate the effect of electron-electron interactions on the transport properties of disordered quasi one-dimensional quantum wires with two or more subbands occupied. We apply two alternative methods to solve the logarithmic…
We examine the effects of electron-electron interactions on transport between edge states in a multilayer integer quantum Hall system. The edge states of such a system, coupled by interlayer tunneling, form a two-dimensional, chiral metal…
In this work we investigate the phenomena associated with the new thresholds in the spectrum of excitations arising when different one-dimensional strongly interacting systems are voltage biased and weakly coupled by tunneling. We develop…
We show that electron transport through a long multichannel wire, connected to leads by tunnel junctions, at low temperatures and voltages is dominated by inelastic cotunnelling. This mechanism results in experimentally observed power-law…
