dc.descriptionMesoscopic conductance fluctuations in graphene samples at energies not very close to the Dirac point are studied analytically. We demonstrate that the conductance variance $<[δG]^2>$ is very sensitive to the elastic scattering breaking the valley symmetry. In the absence of such scattering (disorder potential smooth at atomic scales, trigonal warping negligible), the variance $<[δG]^2 > = 4 < [δG]^2 >_\text{metal}$ is four times greater than that in conventional metals, which is due to the two-fold valley degeneracy. In the absence of intervalley scattering, but for strong intravalley scattering and/or strong warping $<[δG]^2 > =2 < [δG]^2 >_\text{metal}$. Only in the limit of strong intervalley scattering $<[δG]^2 > = < [δG]^2 >_\text{metal}$. Our theory explains recent numerical results and can be used for comparison with existing experiments.
