The major goals of this project were: 1. To study thermal transport in systems of disordered electrons in the presence of the long-range Coulomb interaction, 2. To combine the Quantum Kinetic Equation approach with the Renormalization Group analysis of disordered interacting electrons for studying thermal transport near the Metal Insulator Transition, 3. To study thermal transport and thermopower in systems of disordered electrons in the presence of strong electron-electron collisions at intermediate temperatures, and 4. To study the effects of out of plane vibrations on the thermal transport in graphene.
