" Decohering quantum transport: Phase reservoir"


Abstract

	A phenomenology of random-phase reservoir will be introduced and 
examined in the context of the reservoir-induced decoherence of quantum 
transport in the presence of static disorder.

" Nonlinear magnetotransport in chiral interacting nanotubes "



Abstract

Nonlinear transport through interacting single-wall carbon nanotubes 
containing a few impurities is studied theoretically.  Extending the 
Luttinger liquid theory to incorporate trigonal warping and chirality 
effects, we derive the current contribution odd in an orbital magnetic 
field B, which is non-zero only for chiral tubes and is a direct 
manifestation of interaction physics.
