Abstract

Explicit formulas are obtained for all moments and for all cumulants of the electric current through a quantum chaotic cavity attached to two ideal leads, thus providing the full counting statistics for this type of system. The approach is based on random matrix theory, and is valid in the limit when both leads have many open channels. For an arbitrary number of open channels we present the third cumulant and an example of nonlinear statistics.
