Number statistics for ß-ensembles of random matrices: Applications to trapped fermions at zero temperature.

Let P_{ß}^{(V)}(N_{I}) be the probability that a N×Nß-ensemble of random matrices with confining potential V(x) has N_{I} eigenvalues inside an interval I=[a,b] on the real line. We introduce a general formalism, based on the Coulomb gas technique and the resolvent method, to compute analytically P_{ß}^{(V)}(N_{I}) for large N. We show that this probability scales for large N as P_{ß}^{(V)}(N_{I})≈exp[-ßN^{2}ψ^{(V)}(N_{I}/N)], where ß is the Dyson index of the ensemble. The rate function ψ^{(V)}(k_{I}), independent of ß, is computed in terms of single integrals that can be easily evaluated numerically. The general formalism is then applied to the classical ß-Gaussian (I=[-L,L]), ß-Wishart (I=[1,L]), and ß-Cauchy (I=[-L,L]) ensembles. Expanding the rate function around its minimum, we find that generically the number variance var(N_{I}) exhibits a nonmonotonic behavior as a function of the size of the interval, with a maximum that can be precisely characterized. These analytical results, corroborated by numerical simulations, provide the full counting statistics of many systems where random matrix models apply. In particular, we present results for the full counting statistics of zero-temperature one-dimensional spinless fermions in a harmonic trap.

Phase transitions and edge scaling of number variance in Gaussian random matrices.

We consider N × N Gaussian random matrices, whose average density of eigenvalues has the Wigner semicircle form over [-√2],√2]. For such matrices, using a Coulomb gas technique, we compute the large N behavior of the probability P(N,L)(N(L)) that N(L) eigenvalues lie within the box [-L,L]. This probability scales as P(N,L)(N(L) = κ(L)N) ≈ exp(-ßN(2)ψ(L)(κ(L))), where ß is the Dyson index of the ensemble and ψ(L)(κ(L)) is a ß-independent rate function that we compute exactly. We identify three regimes as L is varied: (i) N(-1)≪L < √2 (bulk), (ii) L∼√2 on a scale of O(N(-2/3)) (edge), and (iii) L > sqrt[2] (tail). We find a dramatic nonmonotonic behavior of the number variance V(N)(L) as a function of L: after a logarithmic growth ∝ln(NL) in the bulk (when L∼O(1/N)), V(N)(L) decreases abruptly as L approaches the edge of the semicircle before it decays as a stretched exponential for L > sqrt[2]. This "dropoff" of V(N)(L) at the edge is described by a scaling function V(ß) that smoothly interpolates between the bulk (i) and the tail (iii). For ß = 2 we compute V(2) explicitly in terms of the Airy kernel. These analytical results, verified by numerical simulations, directly provide for ß = 2 the full statistics of particle-number fluctuations at zero temperature of 1D spinless fermions in a harmonic trap.

First detection of CMY-2 plasmid mediated ß-lactamase in Salmonella Heidelberg in South America.

Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg ranks among the most prevalent causes of human salmonellosis in the United States and Canada, although it has been infrequently reported in South American and European countries. Most Salmonella infections are self-limiting; however, some invasive infections require antimicrobial therapy. In this work we characterized an oxyimino-cephalosporin resistant S. Heidelberg isolate recovered from an inpatient in a Buenos Aires hospital. CMY-2 was responsible for the ß-lactam resistance profile. S. Heidelberg contained a 97kb plasmid belonging to the Inc N group harboring blaCMY-2. ISEcp1 was located upstream blaCMY-2 driving its expression and mobilization. The isolate belonged to sequence type 15 and virotyping revealed the presence of sopE gene. In this study we identified the first CMY-2 producing isolate of S. Heidelberg in Argentina and even in South America.

Primera detección de CMY-2 en Salmonella Heidelberg en Sudamérica / First detection of CMY-2 plasmid mediated ß-lactamase in Salmonella Heidelberg in South America

Salmonellaenterica serovar Heidelberg es uno de los principales agentes causantes de salmonelosis en humanos en Estados Unidos y Canadá, sin embargo, resulta infrecuente en los países de Sudamérica y Europa. En este trabajo se caracterizó un aislamiento de S. Heidelberg resistente a oximino-cefalosporinas recuperado de un paciente internaen un hospital de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Se evidenció la presencia de un plásmido de 97 kbperteneciente al grupo de incompatibilidad IncN, portador del gen blaCMY-2. ISEcp1 fue localizado corriente arriba de blaCMY-2, promoviendo su expresión y movilización.El aislamiento de S. Heidelberg correspondió al secuenciotipo 15 y en la virotipifi cación se detectó el gen sopE. En este trabajo describimos por primera vez la producción de CMY-2 en una cepa de S. Heidelberg en nuestro país y América Latina

Statistics of quantum transport in weakly nonideal chaotic cavities.

We consider statistics of electronic transport in chaotic cavities where time-reversal symmetry is broken and one of the leads is weakly nonideal; that is, it contains tunnel barriers characterized by tunneling probabilities Γ(i). Using symmetric function expansions and a generalized Selberg integral, we develop a systematic perturbation theory in 1-Γ(i) valid for an arbitrary number of channels and obtain explicit formulas up to second order for the average and variance of the conductance and for the average shot noise. Higher moments of the conductance are considered to leading order.
