The low-energy physics of a spin-1/2 Kondo impurity in a gapless host, where a density of band states $\rho_0(\epsilon)=|\epsilon|^r/(|\epsilon|^r+\beta^r)$ vanishes at the Fermi level $\epsilon=0$, is studied by the Bethe ansatz. The…
We study the fate of the Kondo effect with one-dimensional conduction baths at very low densities, such that the system explores the bottom of the conduction band. This can involve either finite low densities, or a small number of fixed…
The Kondo effect is a hallmark of strongly-correlated systems, where an impurity's local degrees of freedom are screened by conduction electrons, forming a many-body singlet. With increasing degrees of freedom in the impurity, theoretical…

We discuss a device --- a purely capacitively coupled interacting spinless triple quantum dot system --- for the observation of the SU(3) Kondo effect. Unlike more familiar SU(2) and SU(4) Kondo effects in quantum dot devices which lead to…
The Kondo effect is investigated in a many-electron quantum ring as a function of magnetic field. For fields applied perpendicular to the plane of the ring a modulation of the Kondo effect with the Aharonov-Bohm period is observed. This…

In a metal, a magnetic impurity is fully screened by the conduction electrons at low temperature. In contrast, impurity moments coupled to spin-1 bulk bosons, such as triplet excitations in paramagnets, are only partially screened, even at…
We present a one dimensional model of electrons coupled to localized moments of spin $S\ge 1$ in which magnetism and superconductivity interplay in a nontrivial manner. This model has a non-Fermi liquid ground state of the chiral spin…
The effective spin Hamiltonian of a triple quantum dot with odd electron occupation weakly connected in series with left ($l$) and right ($r$) metal leads is composed of two-channel exchange and co-tunneling terms. Renormalization group…
