We perform self-consistent quantum transport calculations in open quantum dots taking into account the effect of electron interaction. We demonstrative that in the regime of the ultralow temperatures $2\pi k_BT\lesssim\Delta$ ($\Delta $…

The electron-electron interaction quantum correction to the conductivity of the gated double well Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As/GaAs structures is investigated experimentally. The analysis of the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the…

We analyze the charge transport through a single level quantum dot coupled to a normal (N) and superconducting (S) leads where the electron pairs exist either as the coherent (for temperatures below T_c) or incoherent objects (in a region…

We investigate the nonequilibrium transport properties of a double quantum dot system connected in parallel to two leads, including intradot electron-electron interaction. In the absence of interactions the system supports a bound state in…

A detailed study of the low-temperature physics of an interacting double quantum dot system in a T-shape configuration is presented. Each quantum dot is modeled by a single Anderson impurity and we include an inter-dot electron-electron…

We analyze quantum interference and decoherence effects in single-molecule junctions both experimentally and theoretically by means of the mechanically controlled break junction technique and density-functional theory. We consider the case…

We study the linear conductance through a double-quantum-dot system consisting of an interacting dot in its Kondo regime and an effectively noninteracting dot, connected in parallel to metallic leads. Signatures in the zero-bias conductance…

We model an interacting quantum dot of electrons by a Hamiltonian with random and all-to-all single particle hopping (of r.m.s. strength $t$) and two-particle interactions (of r.m.s. strength $J$). For $t \ll J$, such a model has a regime…

We propose an alternative derivation for the dynamic admittance of a gated quantum dot connected by a single-channel lead to an electron reservoir. Our derivation, which reproduces the result of Pr\^{e}tre, Thomas, and B\"{u}ttiker for the…

We review mechanisms of low-temperature electronic transport through a quantum dot weakly coupled to two conducting leads. Transport in this case is dominated by electron-electron interaction. At temperatures moderately lower than the…

We study the dynamics of charge and energy currents in a Coulomb-coupled double quantum dot system, when only one of the two dots is adiabatically driven by a time-periodic gate that modulates its energy level. Although the Coulomb coupling…

We study the charge transport properties of triangular quantum dot molecule (TQDM) connected to metallic electrodes, taking into account all correlation functions and relevant charging states. The quantum interference (QI) effect of TQDM…

Manifestations of quantum coherence in the electronic conductance through nearly closed quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime are addressed. We show that quantum coherent tunneling processes explain some puzzling statistical features…

The interplay between the Kondo effect and the inter-dot magnetic interaction in a coupled-dot system is studied. An exact result for the transport properties at zero temperature is obtained by diagonalizing a cluster, composed by the…

Sequential single-electron charging is observed in InAs Self-Assembled Quantum Dots using capacitance spectroscopy. In this system, the Coulomb energy is smaller than the inter-level energy spacings due to the quantum confinement and both…

Properties of the "electron gas" - in which conduction electrons interact by means of Coulomb forces but ionic potentials are neglected - change dramatically depending on the balance between kinetic energy and Coulomb repulsion. The limits…

A new theoretical method is introduced to study coherent electron transport in an interacting multilevel quantum dot. The method yields the correct behavior both in the limit of weak and strong coupling to the leads, giving a unified…

The inelastic scattering of electrons which carry current through a single-molecule junction is modeled by a quantum dot, coupled to electron reservoirs via two leads. When the electron is on the dot, it is coupled to a single harmonic…

We review the quantum interference effects in a system of interacting electrons confined to a quantum dot. The review starts with a description of an isolated quantum dot. We discuss the status of the Random Matrix theory (RMT) of the…

We show that problem of interacting electrons in a quantum dot with chaotic boundary conditions is solvable in the large-g limit, where g is the dimensionless conductance of the dot. The critical point of the $g=\infty$ theory (whose…
