Résumé

 I will give an introduction to the physics of one-dimensional quantum wires generically described by Luttinger liquid theory. I will then focus on transport through junctions (including superconducting junctions) of two or more quantum wires. Finally, I will end with a brief mention of pending problems in the quasi-one dimensional world.

Des rafraîchissements seront servis à café et biscuits à 09h30, au V-215.
