We developed a theoretical framework which extends the method of textit{full counting statistics} (FCS) from conventional single channel Kondo screening schemes to multi-channel Kondo paradigm. The developed idea of FCS has been demonstrated considering an example of two-stage Kondo (2SK) model. We analyzed the charge transferred statistics in the strong-coupling regime of a 2SK model using non-equilibrium Keldysh formulation. A bounded value of Fano factor, $1leq Fleq 5/3$, confirmed the cross-over regimes of charge transfered statistics in 2SK effect, from Poissonian to super-Poissonian. An innovative way of measuring transport properties of 2SK effect, by the independent measurements of charge current and noise, has been proposed

We develop a method for calculation of charge transfer statistics of persistent current in nanostructures in terms of the cumulant generating function (CGF) of transferred charge. We consider a simply connected one-dimensional system (a wire) and develop a procedure for the calculation of the CGF of persistent currents when the wire is closed into a ring via a weak link. For the non-interacting system we derive a general formula in terms of the two-particle Greens functions. We show that, contrary to the conventional tunneling contacts, the resulting cumulant generating function has a doubled periodicity as a function of the counting field. We apply our general formula to short tight-binding chains and show that the resulting CGF perfectly reproduces the known evidence for the persistent current. Its second cumulant turns out to be maximal at the switching points and vanishes identically at zero temperature. Furthermore, we apply our formalism for a computation of the charge transfer statistics of genuinely interacting systems. First we consider a ring with an embedded Anderson impurity and employing a self-energy approximation find an overall suppression of persistent current as well as of its noise. Finally, we compute the charge transfer statistics of a double quantum dot system in the deep Kondo limit using an exact analytical solution of the model at the Toulouse point. We analyze the behaviour of the resulting cumulants and compare them with those of a noninteracting double quantum dot system and find several pronounced differences, which can be traced back to interaction effects.
A mesoscopic Coulomb blockade system with two identical transport channels is studied in terms of full counting statistics. It is found that the average current cannot distinguish the quantum constructive interference from the classical non-interference, but the shot noise and skewness are more sensitive to the nature of quantum mechanical interference and can fulfill that task. The interesting super-Poisson shot noise is found and is demonstrated as a consequence of constructive interference, which induces an effective system with fast-and-slow transport channels. Dephasing effects on the counting statistics are carried out to display the continuous transition from quantum interfering to non-interfering transports.
We develop a scheme for the computation of the full-counting statistics of transport described by Markovian master equations with an arbitrary time dependence. It is based on a hierarchy of generalized density operators, where the trace of each operator yields one cumulant. This direct relation offers a better numerical efficiency than the equivalent number-resolved master equation. The proposed method is particularly useful for conductors with an elaborate time-dependence stemming, e.g., from pulses or combinations of slow and fast parameter switching. As a test bench for the evaluation of the numerical stability, we consider time-independent problems for which the full-counting statistics can be computed by other means. As applications, we study cumulants of higher order for two time-dependent transport problems of recent interest, namely steady-state coherent transfer by adiabatic passage and Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg-Majorana interference in an open double quantum dot.
The concept of the Kondo box describes a single spin, antiferromagnetically coupled to a quantum dot with a finite level spacing. Here, a Kondo box is formed in a carbon nanotube interacting with a localized electron. We investigate the spins of its first few eigenstates and compare them to a recent theory. In an open Kondo-box, strongly coupled to the leads, we observe a non-monotonic temperature dependence of the nanotube conductance, which results from a competition between the Kondo-box singlet and the conventional Kondo state that couples the nanotube to the leads.
We calculate the distribution of current fluctuations in two simple exclusion models. Although these models are classical, we recover even for small systems such as a simple or a double barrier, the same distibution of current as given by traditionnal formalisms for quantum mesoscopic conductors. Due to their simplicity, the full counting statistics in exclusion models can be reduced to the calculation of the largest eigenvalue of a matrix, the size of which is the number of internal configurations of the system. As examples, we derive the shot noise power and higher order statistics of current fluctuations (skewness, full counting statistics, ....) of various conductors, including multiple barriers, diffusive islands between tunnel barriers and diffusive media. A special attention is dedicated to the third cumulant, which experimental measurability has been demonstrated lately.
