One SYK SET

Dmitri V. Khveshchenko

Published Dec 11, 2019• 2 citations

Abstract

We study the behavior of a single electron transistor (SET) represented by a dissipative tunnel junction between a pair of quantum dots described by two (possibly, different) Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) models. A combined influence of the soft collective charge and energy modes on charge transport is discussed, alongside the competing effects of the Coulomb blockade and emergent Kondo resonances which might all conspire to result in a non-monotonic behavior of the system's conductance.

Connecting the syk dots

Dmitri V. Khveshchenko

We study a putative (strange) metal-to-insulator transition in a granular array of the Sachdev–Ye–Kitaev (SYK) quantum dots, each occupied by a large number N ≫ 1 of charge-carrying fermions. Extending the previous studies, we complement the SYK couplings by the physically relevant Coulomb interactions and focus on the effects of charge fluctuations, evaluating the conductivity and density of states. The latter were found to demonstrate marked changes of behavior when the effective inter-site tunneling became comparable to the renormalized Coulomb energy, thereby signifying the transition in question.

Quantum thermal transport in the charged Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model: Thermoelectric Coulomb blockade

Andrei I. Pavlov, Mikhail N. Kiselev

We present a microscopic theory for quantum thermoelectric and heat transport in the Schwarzian regime of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. As a charged fermion realization of the SYK model in nanostructures, we assume a setup based on a quantum dot connected to the charge reservoirs through weak tunnel barriers. We analyze particle-hole symmetry breaking effects crucial for both Seebeck and Peltier coefficients. We show that the quantum charge and heat transport at low temperatures are defined by the interplay between elastic and inelastic processes such that the inelastic processes provide a leading contribution to the transport coefficients at the temperatures that are smaller compared to the charging energy. We demonstrate that both electric and thermal conductance obey a power law in temperature behavior, while thermoelectric, Seebeck, and Peltier coefficients are exponentially suppressed. This represents selective suppression of only nondiagonal transport coefficients. We discuss the validity of the Kelvin formula in the presence of a strong Coulomb blockade.
