We model a small quantum dot with a magnetic impurity by the Anderson Hamiltonian with a supplementary exchange interaction term. The transport calculations are performed by means of the Green functions within the equation of motion scheme,…
We describe a phenomenological model for the conductance feature near $0.7 \times 2e^2/h$ that occurs in quantum point contacts. We focus on the transconductance at finite source-drain bias and contrast our model with the results expected…
Chiral anomalies give rise to dissipationless transport phenomena such as the chiral magnetic and vortical effects. In these notes I review the theory from a quantum field theoretic, hydrodynamic and holographic perspective. A physical…
The theory of quantum transport through a dot under a finite bias voltage is developed using perturbation theory in the Keldysh formalism. It is found that the Kondo resonance splits into double peaks when the voltage exceeds the Kondo…
We study the onset of intrinsic bistability and accompanying hysteresis in a single quantum point contact (QPC) with in-plane side gates in the presence of lateral spin-orbit coupling. The hysteresis in the conductance versus common gate…
We study the temperature-dependent quantum correction to conductivity due to the interplay of spin density fluctuations and weak disorder for a two-dimensional metal near an antiferromagnetic (AFM) quantum critical point. AFM spin density…
We consider quantum point contacts (QPCs) defined within disordered two-dimensional electron gases as studied by scanning gate microscopy. We evaluate the conductance maps in the Landauer approach and wave function picture of electron…
A method is proposed for studying wave and particle transport in disordered waveguide systems of dimension higher than unity by means of exact one-dimensionalization of the dynamic equations in the mode representation. As a particular case,…
A quantum critical point (QCP) arises at a continuous transition between competing phases at zero temperature. Collective excitations at magnetic QCPs give rise to metallic properties that strongly deviate from the expectations of Landau's…
The anomalous spin transport coefficients of gapped Dirac electrons are studied with application to a quasi-two-dimensional organic conductor $\alpha$-(BETS)$_2$I$_3$ in mind. In the presence of a gap induced by spin-orbit interaction, we…
Despite recent advancements in the study and understanding of the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter, the region of high baryonic densities and low temperatures has remained difficult to reach in the lab. Things are expected to…
We investigate transport through a finite interacting wire connected to noninteracting leads. The conductance of the pure wire is not renormalized by the interactions for any spatial variation of the interaction parameters $u,K$, and not…
Electron charge transport through a quantum point contact (QPC) driven by an asymmetric spin bias is studied. A large charge current is induced when the transmission coefficient of the QPC jumps from one integer plateau to the next.…
In transport experiments the quantum nature of matter becomes directly evident when changes in conductance occur only in discrete steps, with a size determined solely by Planck's constant h. The observations of quantized steps in the…
Ab-initio simulations of quantum transport commonly focus on a central region which is considered to be connected to infinite, periodic leads through which the current flows. The electronic structure of these distant leads is normally…
We report on the formation of critical states in disordered graphene, at the origin of variable and unconventional transport properties in the quantum Hall regime, such as a zero-energy Hall conductance plateau in the absence of an energy…
The doping of semiconductors with magnetic impurities gives rise not only to a spin-spin interaction between quasi-free carriers and magnetic impurities, but also to a local spin-independent disorder potential for the carriers. Based on a…
The coupling between localized magnetic moments and itinerant electrons presents a plethora of interesting physics. The low-energy physics of some quantum impurity systems can be described using conformal field theory (CFT). In this paper,…
The resistivity in metals near an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point (QCP) is strongly affected by small amounts of disorder. In a quasi-classical treatment, we show that an interplay of strongly anisotropic scattering due to spin…
We study the quantum corrections to the conductivity of the two-dimensional disordered interacting electron system in the diffusive regime due to inelastic scattering off rare magnetic impurities. We focus on the case of very different…
