Anomalous scaling of triple correlation function of white-advected passive scalar

For a short-correlated Gaussian velocity field the problem of a passive scalar with the imposed constant gradient is considered. It is shown that the scaling of three-point correlation function is anomalous. In the limit of large dimension of space $d$ anomalous exponent is calculated.Comment: 3 pages, RevTeX 3.

Full counting statistics of Luttinger liquid conductor

Non-equilibrium bosonization technique is used to study current fluctuations of interacting electrons in a single-channel quantum wire representing a Luttinger liquid (LL) conductor. An exact expression for the full counting statistics of the transmitted charge is derived. It is given by Fredholm determinant of the counting operator with a time dependent scattering phase. The result has a form of counting statistics of non-interacting particles with fractional charges, induced by scattering off the boundaries between the LL wire and the non-interacting leads.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

Pulse propagation in interacting one dimensional Bose liquid

We study wave propagation in interacting Bose liquid, where the short range part of the interaction between atoms is of a hard core type, and its long range part scales with a distance as a power law. The cases of Coulomb, dipole-dipole and Van der Waals interaction are considered. We employ a hydrodynamic approach, based on the exact solution of Lieb-Liniger model, and study the evolution of a density pulse instantly released from a potential trap. We analyze semi-classical Euler and continuity equations and construct the corresponding Riemann invariants. We supplement our analysis with numerical calculations and discuss experimental applications for ultacold atom experiments.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figure

The Effect of Interaction on Shot Noise in The Quantum Limit

We employ a non-linear sigma model defined on a Keldysh contour to study the current and the current noise in a diffusive micro-bridge in the presence of electron-electron interactions. Out of equilibrium the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) does not apply, hence these two quantities are not simply interrelated. For a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) we obtain logarithmic singularities in the low frequency limit.

Manipulation of Majorana states in X-junction geometries

We study quantum manipulation based on four Majorana bound states in X-junction geometry. The parameter space of this setup is bigger than of the previously studied Y-junction and is described by SO(4) symmetry group. In order for quantum computation to be dephasing free, two Majorana states have to stay degenerate at all times. We find a condition necessary for that and compute the Berry's phase, $2\alpha$, accumulated during the manipulation. We construct simple protocols for the variety of values of $\alpha$, including $\pi/8$ needed for the purposes of quantum computation. Although the manipulations in general X-junction geometry are not topologically protected, they may prove to be a feasible compromise for aims of quantum computation.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure

Shot noise in Weyl semimetals

We study the effect of inelastic processes on the magneto-transport of a quasi-one dimensional Weyl semi-metal, using a modified Boltzmann-Langevin approach. The magnetic field drives a crossover to a ballistic regime in which the propagation along the wire is dominated by the chiral anomaly, and the role of fluctuations inside the sample is exponentially suppressed. We show that inelastic collisions modify the parametric dependence of the current fluctuations on the magnetic field. By measuring shot noise as a function of a magnetic field, for different applied voltage, one can estimate the electron-electron inelastic length $l_{\rm ee}$.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur

Korshunov instantons out of equilibrium

Zero-dimensional dissipative action possesses non-trivial minima known as Korshunov instantons. They have been known so far only for imaginary time representation that is limited to equilibrium systems. In this work we reconstruct and generalise Korshunov instantons using real-time Keldysh approach. This allows us to formulate the dissipative action theory for generic non-equilibrium conditions. Possible applications of the theory to transport in strongly biased quantum dots are discussed..Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
