Full counting statistics for the Kondo dot in the unitary limit.

We calculate the charge transfer probability distribution function chi(lambda) for the Kondo dot in the strong-coupling limit within the framework of the Nozières-Fermi-liquid theory of the Kondo effect. At zero temperature, the ratio of the moments Cn of the charge distribution to the backscattering current Ibs follows a universal law Cn/2Ibs = (-1)n(1+2n)/6. The functional form of chi(lambda) is consistent with tunneling of electrons and, possibly, electron pairs. We then discuss the crossover behavior of chi(lambda) from weak to strong Coulomb repulsion in the underlying Anderson impurity model and relate this to the existing results. Finally, we extend our analysis to the case of finite temperatures.

Four-body problem and BEC-BCS crossover in a quasi-one-dimensional cold fermion gas.

The four-body problem for an interacting two-species Fermi gas is solved analytically in a confined quasi-one-dimensional geometry, where the two-body atom-atom scattering length a(aa) displays a confinement-induced resonance. We compute the dimer-dimer scattering length a(dd) and show that this quantity completely determines the many-body solution of the associated BEC-BCS crossover phenomenon in terms of bosonic dimers.

Full counting statistics for the Kondo dot.

The generating function for the cumulants of charge current distribution is calculated for two generalized Majorana resonant level models: the Kondo dot at the Toulouse point and the resonant level embedded in a Luttinger liquid with the interaction parameter g=1/2. We find that the low-temperature nonequilibrium transport in the Kondo case occurs via tunneling of physical electrons as well as by coherent transmission of electron pairs. We calculate the third cumulant ("skewness") explicitly and analyze it for different couplings, temperatures, and magnetic fields. For the g=1/2 setup the statistics simplifies and is given by a modified version of the Levitov-Lesovik formula.

Atom-dimer scattering for confined ultracold fermion gases.

We solve the three-body problem of a quasi-one-dimensional ultracold Fermi gas with parabolic confinement length a (perpendicular) and 3D scattering length a. On the two-body level, there is a Feshbach-type resonance at a (perpendicular)/a approximately 1.46, and a dimer state for arbitrary a (perpendicular)/a. The three-body problem is shown to be universal, and described by the atom-dimer scattering length a(ad) and a range parameter b(ad). In the dimer limit a (perpendicular)/a>>1, we find a repulsive zero-range atom-dimer interaction. For a (perpendicular)/a<<-1, however, the potential has long range, with a(ad)>0 and b(ad)>>a(ad). There is no trimer state, and despite a(ad)=0 at a( perpendicular)/a approximately 2.6, there is no resonance enhancement of the interaction.

Resonant tunneling between Luttinger liquids: a solvable case.

We discuss the conductance of a Luttinger liquid interrupted by a quantum dot containing a single resonant level. Using bosonization and refermionization methods, we find a mapping to a Kondo-type problem which possesses a nontrivial Toulouse-type solvable point. At this point, we obtain an analytic expression for the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics and analyze the differential conductance and the width of the resonance peak as functions of bias and gate voltages, temperature, and barrier asymmetry. We also determine the exact scaling function for the linear conductance.

Field emission from Luttinger liquids and single-wall carbon nanotubes.

We develop a theory for the field emission effect in Luttinger liquids and single-wall carbon nanotubes at the level of the energy resolved current distribution. We generalize Fowler-Nordheim relations. Just below the Fermi edge, we find a power-law vanishing current distribution with the density of states exponent. The current distribution above the Fermi edge owes its existence to a peculiar interplay of interactions and correlated tunneling. It displays a nontrivial power-law divergence just above the Fermi energy.

Bulk and boundary zero-bias anomaly in multiwall carbon nanotubes.

We compute the tunneling density of states of doped multiwall nanotubes including disorder and electron-electron interactions. A nonconventional Coulomb blockade reflecting nonperturbative Altshuler-Aronov-Lee power-law zero-bias anomalies is found, in accordance with recent experimental results. The presence of a boundary implies a universal doubling of the boundary exponent in the diffusive limit.
