We study singularities in the I-V characteristics for sequential tunneling from resonant localized levels (e.g. a quantum dot) into a one dimensional electron system described by a Hubbard model. Boundary conformal field theory together…

In the deformed quantum mechanics with a minimal length, one WKB connection formula through a turning point is derived. We then use it to calculate tunnelling rates through potential barriers under the WKB approximation. Finally, the…
