We consider fermion-dimer scattering in the presence of a large positive scattering length in the frame of functional renormalization group equations. A flow equation for the momentum dependent fermion-dimer scattering amplitude is derived from first principles in a systematic vertex expansion of the exact flow equation for the effective action. The resummation obtained from the nonperturbative flow is shown to be equivalent to the one performed by the integral equation by Skorniakov and Ter-Martirosian (STM). The flow equation approach allows to integrate out fermions and bosons simultaneously, in line with the fact that the bosons are not fundamental but build up gradually as fluctuation induced bound states of fermions. In particular, the STM result for atom-dimer scattering is obtained by choosing the relative cutoff scales of fermions and bosons such that the fermion fluctuations are integrated out already at the initial stage of the RG evolution.We consider fermion-dimer scattering in the presence of a large positive scattering length in the frame of functional renormalization group equations.

Effective field theory for dilute Fermi systems at fourth order

Corbinian Wellenhofer, C. Drischler, A. Schwenk

We discuss high-order calculations in perturbative effective field theory for fermions at low energy scales. The Fermi-momentum or ${k}_{\mathrm{F}}{a}_{s}$ expansion for the ground-state energy of the dilute Fermi gas is calculated to fourth order, both in cutoff regularization and in dimensional regularization. For the case of spin one-half fermions we find from a Bayesian analysis that the expansion is well converged at this order for $|{k}_{\mathrm{F}}{a}_{s}|\ensuremath{\lesssim}0.5$. Furthermore, we show that Pad\'e-Borel resummations can improve the convergence for $|{k}_{\mathrm{F}}{a}_{s}|\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$. Our results provide important constraints for nonperturbative calculations of ultracold atoms and dilute neutron matter.We discuss high-order calculations in perturbative effective field theory for fermions at low energy scales.
