Abstract:

In this chapter we review the quantum phase transitions and transport properties of low-capacitance Josephson junction arrays. We will present the models and introduce the relevant topological excitations. The phase diagram depends in a very rich way on various control parameters. We will discuss the universality or or absence of universality of the transport properties at the quantum phase transition. I.
