Abstract
In order to fully characterize the noise associated with electron transport, with its severe consequences for solid‐state quantum information systems, the theory of full counting statistics has been developed. It accounts for correlation effects associated with the statistics and effects of entanglement, but it remains a non‐trivial task to account for interaction effects. In this article we present two examples: we describe electron transport through quantum dots with strong charging effects beyond perturbation theory in the tunneling, and we analyze current fluctuations in a diffusive interacting conductor.

We report our recent study on the full counting statistics (FCS) of transport through a molecular quantum dot magnet. Our analysis is theoretical, and its range of validity is restricted here to the incoherent tunneling regime. One of the original points is our Hamiltonian describing a single-level
Measurements of the average current and its fluctuation (noise) have been powerful tools to study the quantum transport in mesoscopic systems. Recently it became possible to measure the higher moment of the current probability distribution and moreover, the current distribution itself ('full countin
