Ward identities for strongly coupled Eliashberg theories

Andrey V. Chubukov

We discuss Ward identities for strongly interacting fermion systems described by Eliashberg-type theories. We show that Ward identities are not in conflict with the Migdal theorem and derive diagrammatically a Ward identity for a charge vertex both in a Fermi liquid and when a Fermi liquid is destroyed at quantum criticality. We argue that a Ward identity for the spin vertex cannot be obtained within the Eliashberg theory.

Fermi liquid near a q = 0 charge quantum critical point

R. David Mayrhofer, Andrey V. Chubukov, P. Wölfle

We analyze the quasiparticle interaction function (the fully dressed and antisymmetrized interaction between fermions) for a two-dimensional Fermi liquid at zero temperature close to a q=0 charge quantum critical point (QCP) in the $s\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{wave}$ channel (the one leading to phase separation). By the Ward identities, this vertex function must be related to quasiparticle residue $Z$, which can be obtained independently from the fermionic self-energy. We show that to satisfy these Ward identities, one needs to go beyond the standard diagrammatic formulation of Fermi-liquid theory and include a series of additional contributions to the vertex function. These contributions are not present in a conventional Fermi liquid, but do emerge near a QCP, where the effective 4-fermion interaction is mediated by a soft dynamical boson. We demonstrate explicitly that including these terms restores the Ward identity. Our analysis is built on previous studies of the vertex function near an antiferromag netic QCP [Phys. Rev. B 89, 045108 (2014)] and a $d$-wave charge-nematic QCP [Phys. Rev. B 81, 045110 (2010)]. We show th at for $s\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{wave}$ charge QCP the analysis is more straightforward and allows one to obtain the full quasiparticle interaction function (the Landau function) near a QCP. We show that all partial components of this function (Landau parameters) diverge near a QCP, in the same way as the effective mass ${m}^{*}$, except for the $s$-wave charge component, which approaches $\ensuremath{-}1$. Consequently, the susceptibilities in all channels, except for the critical one, remain finite at a QCP, as they should.
