We consider the problem of quantum and classical phase transitions in double-layer quantum Hall systems at $\nu=1/m$ (m odd integers) from a long-wavelength statistical mechanics viewpoint. We derive an explicit mapping of the…
We study the statistics of level widths of a quantum dot with extended contacts in the absence of time-reversal symmetry. The widths are determined by the amplitude of the wavefunction averaged over the contact area. The distribution…
We propose a quantum stripe (smectic) coupled-Luttinger-liquid model for the anisotropic states which occur in two-dimensional electron systems with high-index partial Landau level filling, $\nu^{*} = \nu - \lbrack\nu\rbrack$. Perturbative…
Recent experiments in the integer quantum Hall regime seem to find direct transitions from a quantum Hall state with Hall conductance $\sigma_{xy} = n e^2/h $ with integer $n > 1$, to an insulating state in weak magnetic fields. We study…
The fluctuations and the distribution of the conductance peak spacings of a quantum dot in the Coulomb-blockade regime are studied and compared with the predictions of random matrix theory (RMT). The experimental data were obtained in…
A two-layer system coupled via tunneling and with different carrier masses in each layer is investigated in the integer quantum Hall regime. Striking deviations of the one-layer Hall conductivity from the usual quantization are found, if…
A non-planar geometry for the quantum Hall (QH) effect is studied, whereby two quantum Hall (QH) systems are joined at a sharp right angle. When both facets are at equal filling factor nu the junction hosts a channel with non-quantized…
Quasi-two-dimensional transport is investigated in a system consisting of one ferromagnetic layer placed between two insulating layers. Using the mechanism of skew-scattering to describe the Extraordinary Hall Effect (EHE) and calculating…
The detailed derivation of a theory for transport in quasi-two-dimensional metals, with small-angle elastic scattering and angle-independent inelastic scattering is presented. The transport equation is solved for a model Fermi surface…
We report a numerical study of transport properties of a quantum dot with superconducting leads. We introduce a general phenomenological model of quantum dot transport, in which electron tunnel rates are computed within the Fermi's Golden…
We develop a theory of fluctuation-driven phenomena in thermal transport in graphene double-layers. We work in the regime of electron hydrodynamics and focus on the double charge neutrality point. Although at the neutrality point charge…
A two-fluid model is proposed to describe the transport properties of granular superconductors. Using the resistively shunted junction model and some aspects of the two-level system theory, a statistical model is developed which takes into…
The nature of a metal-insulator transition tuned by external gates in quantum Hall (QH) systems with point constrictions, as reported in recent experiments of Roddaro et al [1], is examined. We attribute this phenomenon to a splitting of…
We develop simple density-matrix models to describe the role of coherence in resonant-tunneling (RT) transport of quantum-cascade lasers (QCLs). Specifically, we investigate the effects of coherent coupling between the lasing levels with…
Amorphous solids show surprisingly universal behaviour at low temperatures. The prevailing wisdom is that this can be explained by the existence of two-state defects within the material. The so-called standard tunneling model has become the…
We investigate the statistical properties of the scattering matrix $S$ describing the electron transport through quasi-one dimensional disordered systems. For weak disorder (metallic regime), the energy dependence of the phase shifts of $S$…
Properties of the Kondo effect in quantum dots depend sensitively on the coupling parameters and so on the realization of the quantum dot -- the Kondo temperature itself becomes a mesoscopic quantity. Assuming chaotic dynamics in the dot,…
We investigate the statistical distribution of transmission eigenvalues in phase-coherent transport through quantum dots. In two-dimensional ab-initio simulations for both clean and disordered two-dimensional cavities, we find markedly…
In this letter we study the Hall conductivity in holographic models where translational invariance is broken by a lattice. We show that generic holographic theories will display a different temperature dependence in the Hall angle as to the…
We consider the problem of electron transport along a one-dimensional disordered multiple-scattering conductor, and study the electron density for all the electronic levels. A model is proposed for the reduced density matrix of the system…
