چکیده

We present exact analytical results for the differential conductance of a finite Kitaev chain in an N-S-N configuration, where topological superconductor is contacted on both sides with normal leads. Our are obtained Keldysh nonequilibrium Green's function technique, using full spectrum without resorting to minimal models. A closed formula linear given, and procedure obtain transport mediated by higher excitations described. The attains maximum value ${e}^{2}/h$ only zero-energy states. Also, exhibits complex pattern created numerous crossings anticrossings excitation spectrum. reveal be protected inversion symmetry, while result from pairing-induced hybridization particlelike holelike solutions same character. comprehensive treatment allows us also identify contributions local nonlocal transmission processes at arbitrary bias voltage. Local Andreev reflection dominate within bulk gap diminish excited states but reemerge when voltage probes avoided crossings. direct enhanced above contributes

Linear and nonlinear transport across carbon nanotube quantum dots

We present a low energy-theory for non-linear transport in finite-size interacting single-wall carbon nanotubes. It is based on a microscopic model for the interacting pz electrons and successive bosonization. We consider weak coupling to the leads and derive equations of motion for the reduced density matrix. We focus on the case of large-diameter nanotubes where exchange effects can be neglec...

An analytical model for nonlinear adsorptive transport through layered soils

Solute transport with nonlinear adsorption occurs in many situations involving inorganic chemical and metal contamination in soil and groundwater systems. The resulting isotherms can be highly nonlinear, and numerical solutions of the transport equation can encounter severe convergence difficulties. An analytical solution is developed for simulating one-dimensional transport in the layered soil...

Thermal Transport in the Kitaev Model.

In conventional insulating magnets, heat is carried by magnons and phonons. In contrast, when the magnets harbor a quantum spin liquid state, emergent quasiparticles from the fractionalization of quantum spins can carry heat. Here, we investigate unconventional thermal transport yielded by such exotic carriers, in both longitudinal and transverse components, for the Kitaev model, whose ground s...

An integrated Decision-Making Approach for Road Transport Evaluation in a Sustainable Supply Chain

One important step to achieve a sustainable transportation system is to control the impact and evaluate the effect of various influencing factors toward three dimensions of sustainability. Within this context, diverse analytical approaches have been developed to assess the sustainability level of various transportation systems, however, sustainability evaluation based on fuzzy multiple criteria...
