Studying the flow equation that results from infinitesimal variations of the cutoff, we recover the Bethe-Salpeter relation between $f$ and the forward limit of $\mathcal{A}$ , and we demonstrate an analogue relation between $g$ and the frontal limit of $\mathcal{A}$ . We show that our effective theory captures all the low-energy phenomena of Fermi liquids, from the equation of state to the transport properties, both in the normal and in the superfluid phase. We apply it to the calculation of non-Fermi liquid corrections to the quasiparticle lifetime.
