Abstract
We present a complete analytical theory of conductance fluctuations in quantum dots in the regime of chaotic dynamics. Using the supersymmetry method we calculate for the first time exactly the conductance distribution function for a system of noninteracting electrons. Knowledge of this quantity enables us to obtain information about statistical properties of wave functions of a closed dot. The far tail of the distribution function describes fluctuations of resonance conductance in the Coulomb blockade regime.
