Two electrons move in a quasi one--dimensional wire under the influence of a short--range interaction. We restrict Hilbert space to those states where the two electrons are close to each other. Using supersymmetry, we present a complete…

Weak localization leads to the same correction to both the conductivity and the electron-phonon coupling constant $\lambda$ (and $\lambda_{tr}$). Consequently the temperature dependence of the (thermal) electrical resistivity is decreasing…

Scattering by slowly fluctuating degrees of freedom can cause a transient localization of the current-carrying electrons in metals, driving the system away from normal metallic behavior. We illustrate and characterize this general…
