Abstract
Using a Fermi-liquid approach, we provide a comprehensive treatment of the current and current noise through a quantum dot whose low-energy behavior corresponds to an $\text{SU}(N)$ Kondo model, focusing on the case $N=4$ relevant to carbon nanotube dots. We show that for general $N$, one needs to consider the effects of higher-order Fermi-liquid corrections even to describe low-voltage current and noise. We also show that the noise exhibits complex behavior due to the interplay between coherent shot noise, and noise arising from interaction-induced scattering events. We also treat various imperfections relevant to experiments, such as the effects of asymmetric dot-lead couplings.
