Abstract

We study the electrical and thermal transport through the SU(N) Wolff model with the use of bosonization. The Wilson ratio reaches unity as N grows to infinity. The electric conductance is dominated by the charge channel, and decreases monotonically with increasing interaction. The thermal conductivity enhances in the presence of a local Hubbard U. The Wiedemann-Franz law is violated; the Lorentz number depends strongly on the interaction parameter, which can be regarded as a manifestation of spin-charge separation.
