Based on a recent proposal [O.P. Sushkov, Phys. Rev. B 64, 155319 (2001)], we relate the quantum conductance through a sample in which electrons are strongly correlated to the persistent current of a large ring, composed of the sample and a…

For the two-dimensional one-component Coulomb plasma, we derive an asymptotic expansion of the free energy up to order $N$, the number of particles of the gas, with an effective error bound $N^{1-\kappa}$ for some constant $\kappa > 0$.…
Time-dependent transport through two capacitively coupled quantum dots is studied in the framework of the generalized master equation. The Coulomb interaction is included within the exact diagonalization method. Each dot is connected to two…
We analyze an interplay between Coulomb blockade and quantum fluctuations in a coherent conductor (with dimensionless conductance $g \gtrsim 1$) attached to an Ohmic shunt. We demonstrate that at T=0 the system can be either an insulator or…
For inhomogeneous classical Coulomb fluids in thermal equilibrium, like the jellium or the two-component Coulomb gas, there exists a variety of exact sum rules which relate the particle one-body and two-body densities. The necessary…
