A model is developed describing the energy distribution of quasi-particles in a quasi-one dimensional, normal metal wire, where the transport is diffusive, connected between equilibrium reservoirs. When an ac bias is applied to the wire by…

We examine the effects of disorder in one-dimensional systems. We link the case of a few impurities, typical of a short quantum wire, to that of a finite density of scatterers more appropriate for a long wire or a macroscopic system.…

We develop a method to calculate the persistent currents and their spatial distribution (and transport properties) on graphs made of quasi-1D diffusive wires. They are directly related to the field derivatives of the determinant of a matrix…
If the behavior of a system with many degrees of freedom can be captured by a small number of collective variables, then plausibly there is an underlying mean-field theory. We show that simple versions of this idea fail to describe the…
A linear unsaturating magnetoresistance at high perpendicular magnetic fields, together with a quadratic positive magnetoresistance at low fields, has been seen in many different experimental materials, ranging from silver chalcogenides and…
We present theoretical calculations of the ensemble-averaged (a.k.a. effective or coherent) wavefield propagating in a heterogeneous medium considered as one realization of a random process. In the literature, it is usually assumed that…
The length dependence is computed of the resistance of a disordered normal-metal wire attached to a superconductor. The scaling of the transmission eigenvalue distribution with length is obtained exactly in the metallic limit, by a…
We calculate the conductance of a quantum wire with two occupied subbands in a presence of a barrier taking into account the interaction between electrons. We extend the renormalization-group equation for the scattering matrix of the…
