Abstract
We theoretically investigate the thermoelectric transport through a circuit implementation of the three-channel charge Kondo model quantum simulator [Z. Iftikhar et al., Science 360, 1315 (2018)]. The universal temperature scaling law of the Seebeck coefficient is computed perturbatively approaching the non-Fermi liquid strong coupling fixed point using the Abelian bosonization technique. The predicted scaling behavior of the thermoelectric power sheds light on the properties of emerging parafermions and gives access to exploring prefractionalized zero modes in the quantum transport experiments. We discuss a generalization of approach for investigating a multichannel Kondo problem with emergent crossovers between “weak” non-Fermi liquid regimes corresponding to different low-temperature fixed points.
