A systematic formalism for quantum electrodynamics in a classical uniform magnetic field is discussed. The first order radiative correction to the ground state energy of an electron is calculated. This then leads to the anomalous magnetic…
An analytical expression for the current through a single level quantum dot for arbitrary strength of the on-site electron-electron interaction is derived beyond standard mean-field theory. By describing the localised states in terms of…
This paper is intended to demonstrate that there is no need to revise the existing theory of the transport properties of disordered conductors in the so-called weak localization regime. In particular, we demonstrate explicitly that recent…
We consider 2D Yukawa theory in the strong scalar wave background. We use operator and functional formalisms. In the latter the Schwinger--Keldysh diagrammatic technique is used to calculate retarded, advanced and Keldysh propagators. We…
We suggest an effective field theory for disorderd conductors, which describes quantum kinetics of ballistically propagating electrons. This theory contains non-linear $\sigma$-model \cite{Efetov} as its long wave limit.
A quantum kinetic theory of the linear response to an electric field is provided from a controlled expansion of the Keldysh theory at leading order, for a multiband electron system with weak scalar disorder. The response is uniquely…
