We present an effective action approach for the problem of Coulomb blocking of tunneling. The method is applied to the ``strong coupling'' problem arising near zero bias, where perturbation theory diverges. By a semiclassical argument, we…
We show that the mutual coherence of a relativistic electron beam in a Coulomb-disordered medium is governed by an effective two-dimensional compact phase field with a logarithmic correlation function. The corresponding Gaussian free-field…

Distributions of electron waiting times have been measured in several recent experiments and have been shown to provide complementary information compared to what can be learned from the electric current fluctuations. Existing theories,…
