Effects of many-electron jumps in relaxation and conductivity of Coulomb   glasses
  A numerical study of the energy relaxation and conductivity of the Coulomb glass is presented. The role of many-electron transitions is studied by two complementary methods: a kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm and a master equation in configuration space method. A calculation of the transition rate for two-electron transitions is presented, and the proper extension of this to multi-electron transitions is discussed. It is shown that two-electron transitions are important in bypassing energy barriers which effectively block sequential one-electron transitions. The effect of two-electron transitions is also discussed.
