Magnetic impurities embedded in a metal are screened by the Kondo effect, signaled by the
formation of an extended correlation cloud, the so-called Kondo or screening cloud. In a …

We apply the adaptive time-dependent density-matrix renormalization-group method
(tDMRG) to the study of transport properties of quantum-dot systems connected to metallic …

The existence of a length scale ξ K∼ 1/TK (with TK the Kondo temperature) has long been
predicted in quantum impurity systems. At low temperatures T≪ TK, the standard …

A magnetic moment in a metal or in a quantum dot is, at low temperatures, screened by the
conduction electrons through the mechanism of the Kondo effect. This gives rise to spin-spin …

We study a quantum quench in which a magnetic impurity is suddenly coupled to Hubbard
chains, whose low-energy physics is described by Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory. Using …

The spatial length of the Kondo screening is still a controversial issue related to Kondo
physics. While renormalization-group and Bethe-Ansatz solutions have provided detailed …

We study the nonequilibrium formation of a spin screening cloud that accompanies the
quenching of a local magnetic moment immersed in a Fermi sea at zero temperature. Based …

We introduce a block Lanczos (BL) recursive technique to construct quasi-one-dimensional
models, suitable for density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations, from single …

The Kondo effect, a hallmark of strong correlation physics, is characterized by the formation
of an extended cloud of singlet states around magnetic impurities at low temperatures. While …

In the previous chapter, we traced the history of dilute magnetic impurities in metals and
quantum dots. The SIAM and Kondo models were presented, originally introduced to …
