Periodic orbit effects on conductance peak heights in a chaotic quantum dot
We study the effects of short-time classical dynamics on the distribution of
Coulomb blockade peak heights in a chaotic quantum dot. The location of one or
both leads relative to the short unstable orbits, as well as relative to the
symmetry lines, can have large effects on the moments and on the head and tail
of the conductance distribution. We study these effects analytically as a
function of the stability exponent of the orbits involved, and also numerically
using the stadium billiard as a model. The predicted behavior is robust,
depending only on the short-time behavior of the many-body quantum system, and
consequently insensitive to moderate-sized perturbations.Comment: 14 pages, including 6 figure

A simple proof of a primal affine scaling method
In this paper, we present a simpler proof of the result of Tsuchiya and Muramatsu on the convergence of the primal affine scaling method. We show that the primal sequence generated by the method converges to the interior of the optimum face and the dual sequence to the analytic center of the optimal dual face, when the step size implemented in the procedure is bounded by 2/3. We also prove the optimality of the limit of the primal sequence for a slightly larger step size of 2 q /(3 q −1), where q is the number of zero variables in the limit. We show this by proving the dual feasibility of a cluster point of the dual sequence.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/44263/1/10479_2005_Article_BF02206821.pd
