Abstract

We compute the tunneling density of states of doped multiwall nanotubes including disorder and electron-electron interactions. A nonconventional Coulomb blockade reflecting nonperturbative Altshuler-Aronov-Lee power-law zero-bias anomalies is found, in accordance with recent experimental results. The presence of a boundary implies a universal doubling of the boundary exponent in the diffusive limit.
