Abstract
The role of nonequilibrium effects in conductance through quantum dots is investigated. Associated with single-electron tunneling are shake-up processes and the formation of excitoniclike resonances. They qualitatively change the low-temperature properties of the system. By quantum Monte Carlo methods we analyze the renormalization of the effective capacitance and the gate-voltage-dependent conductance. The experimental relevance is discussed.
