We study the dynamics resulting out of an abrupt change of the two-particle interaction in two models of closed one-dimensional Fermi systems: (a) the field theoretical Tomonaga-Luttinger model and (b) a microscopic lattice model. Using a…
We study the out-of-equilibrium transport in a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid containing a weak or a tunneling barrier coupled to an arbitrary electromagnetic environment. This applies as well to a coherent one-channel non-interacting conductor…
