The Coulomb log (log {\Lambda}) approximation is widely used to approximate electron transport coefficients in dense plasmas. It is a classical approximation to the momentum transport cross section. The accuracy of this approximation for…
Full counting statistics (FCS) of charge transfer in mesoscopic systems has recently become a subject of significant interest, since it proves to reveal an important information about the system which can be hardly assessed by other means.…
The electron transport in a 1D conductor with an isolated local defect such as an impurity or a non-adiabatic contact is studied theoretically. New regime of conduction in correlated 1D systems is predicted beyond the well-known regime of…
In the white-noise limit current correlations measured at different contacts of a mesoscopic conductor are negative due to the antisymmetry of the wave function (Pauli principle). We show that current fluctuations at capacitive contacts…
When a biased conductor is put in proximity with an unbiased conductor a drag current can be induced in the absence of detailed balance. This is known as the Coulomb drag effect. However, even in this situation far away from equilibrium…
Lectures deal with the theory of electronic transport, in particular with the electrical conductivity, in systems dominated by strong electron-electron repulsion. The concept of charge stiffness is introduced to distinguish conductors and…
The high-temperature aspects of the Casimir force between two neutral conducting walls are studied. The mathematical model of "inert" ideal-conductor walls, considered in the original formulations of the Casimir effect, is based on the…
Superconductor-insulator transition driven by the decreasing concentration of electrons $n$ is studied in the case of the disorder potential created by randomly positioned charged impurities. Electrons and Cooper pairs (formed by an…
The form of the Coulomb potential of a point in a noncommutative geometry is investigated. A distinction is made between measured distance and "coordinate" distance. The "effective" value of an operator is defined as its expectation value…
We study the transport through a quantum dot coupled to two leads by single-mode point contacts. The linear conductance is calculated analytically as a function of a gate voltage and temperature T in the case when transmission coefficients…
We study the transport through two impurities or ``barriers'' in a one-dimensional quantum wire, taking into account the long-range $\frac1r$ Coulomb interactions. We compute the temperature-dependent conductance $G(T)$ of this system.…
The Coulomb gap in a donor-acceptor model with finite charge transfer energy $\Delta$ describing the electronic system on the dielectric side of the metal-insulator transition is investigated by means of computer simulations on two- and…
Electron transport in a self-consistent potential along a ballistic two-terminal conductor has been investigated. We have derived general formulas which describe the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics, differential conductance, and…
We study conductance fluctuations in a two-dimensional electron gas as a function of chemical potential (or gate voltage) from the strongly insulating to the metallic regime. Power spectra of the fluctuations decay with two distinct…
Classical Coulomb systems at equilibrium, bounded by a plane dielectric wall, are studied. A general two-point charge correlation function is considered. Valid for any fixed position of one of the points, a new relation is found between the…
We discuss the suppression of Coulomb charging effects on a small metallic island coupled to an electrode by a tunnel junction. At high temperatures the quantum corrections to the classical charging energy $E_c=e^2/2C$, where $C$ is the…
A two-component Coulomb gas confined by walls made of ideal dielectric material is considered. In two dimensions at the special inverse temperature $\beta = 2$, by using the Pfaffian method, the system is mapped onto a four-component Fermi…
One-dimensional scattering by a Coulomb potential V(x)=lambda/|x| is studied for both repulsive (c>0) and attractive (c<0) cases. Two methods of regularizing the singularity at x=0 are used, yielding the same conclusion, namely, that the…
We study Coulomb drag in a pair of parallel one-dimensional electron systems within the framework of the Tomanaga-Luttinger model. We find that Coulomb coupling has a much stronger effect on one dimensional wires than on two-dimensional…
We derive the superconductiong mean-field equations for an attractive interaction, V, in the s-wave channel when local Coulomb interactions are taken into account for any value of U. Our results show that the Coulomb repulsion is…
