For privileged values of the Aharonov-Bohm-Casher fluxes, the problem can be mapped onto an integrable model, exactly solvable by a Bethe ansatz. In the case of a pure magnetic Aharonov-Bohm flux, we find that the presence of the quantum dot has no effect on the persistent current. In contrast, the Kondo resonance interferes with the spin-dependent Aharonov-Casher effect to induce a current which, in the strong-coupling limit, is independent of the number of electrons in the ring.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2001-12-11T01:46:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "kondo resonance", "mesoscopic ring", "exact results", "aharonov-bohm/casher effects", "aharonov-casher effect" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
