Transport in Disordered Interacting Systems: Numerical Results for One-Dimensional Spinless Electrons
Abstract
The combined influence of disorder and interactions on the transport properties of electrons in one dimension is investigated. The numerical simulations are carried out by means of the Hartree-Fock-based diagonalization, a very efficient method to determine the low-energy properties of a disordered many-particle system. We find that the conductance of a strongly localized system can become considerably enhanced by the interactions. The enhancement for long-range interactions is significantly larger than for short-range interactions. In contrast, the conductance of weakly localized systems becomes suppressed by the interactions.
