Abstract

We apply the sea-boson method to compute the momentum distribution of a spinless continuum Fermi gas in two space dimensions with short-range repulsive interactions. We find that the ground state of the system is a Landau Fermi liquid($ 0 < Z_{F} < 1 $). We also apply this method to study the one-dimensional system when the interactions are long-ranged gauge interactions. We map the Wigner crystal phase of this system.

One-dimensional gas of bosons with Feshbach-resonant interactions

Victor Gurarie

We present a study of a gas of bosons confined in one dimension with Feshbach-resonant interactions, at zero temperature. Unlike the gas of one-dimensional bosons with non resonant interactions, which is known to be equivalent to a system of interacting spinless fermions and can be described using the Luttinger liquid formalism, the resonant gas possesses additional features. Depending on its parameters, the gas can be in one of three possible regimes. In the simplest of those, it can still be described by the Luttinger liquid theory, but its Fermi momentum cannot be larger than a certain cutoff momentum dependent on the details of the interactions. In the other two regimes, it is equivalent to a Luttinger liquid at low density only. At higher densities its excitation spectrum develops a minimum, similar to the roton minimum in helium, at momenta where the excitations are in resonance with the Fermi sea. As the density of the gas is increased further, the minimum dips below the Fermi energy, thus making the ground state unstable. At this point the standard ground state gets replaced by a more complicated one, where not only the states with momentum below the Fermi points, but also the ones with momentum close to that minimum, get filled, and the excitation spectrum develops several branches. We are unable so far to study this regime in detail due to the lack of the appropriate formalism.

Theory of fermion liquids

H. Dharma Kwon, A. Houghton, John Bradley Marston

We develop a general theory of fermion liquids in spatial dimensions greater than 1. The principal method, bosonization, is applied to the cases of short- and long-range longitudinal interactions and to transverse gauge interactions. All the correlation funtions of the system may be obtained with the use of a generating functional. Short-range and Coulomb interactions do not destroy the Landau-Fermi fixed point. Non-Fermi liquid fixed points are found, however, in the cases of a super-long-range longitudinal interaction in two dimensions and transverse gauge interactions in two and three spatial dimensions. We consider in some detail the (2+1)-dimensional problem of a Chern-Simons gauge action combined with a longitudinal two-body interaction V(q)\ensuremath{\propto}\ensuremath{\Vert}q${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Vert}}}^{\mathit{y}\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$, which controls the density, and hence gauge, fluctuations. For y0 we find that the gauge interaction is irrelevant and the Landau fixed point is stable, while for y>0 the interaction is relevant and the fixed point cannot be accessed by bosonization. Of special importance is the case y=0 (Coulomb interaction), which describes the Halperin-Lee-Read theory of the half-filled Landau level. We obtain the full quasiparticle propagator, which is of a marginal Fermi-liquid form. Using Ward identities, we show that neither the inclusion of nonlinear terms in the fermion dispersion nor vertex corrections alters our results: the fixed point is accessible by bosonization. As the two-point fermion Green's function is not gauge invariant, we also invetigate the gauge-invariant density response function. Near momentum Q=2${\mathit{k}}_{\mathit{F}}$, in addition to the Kohn anomaly we find other nonanalytic behavior. In the appendies we present a numerical calculation of the spectral function for a Fermi liquid with Landau parameter ${\mathit{f}}_{0}$\ensuremath{\ne}0. We also show how Kohn's theorem is satisfied within the bosonization framework.

Exact Momentum Distribution of a Fermi Gas in One Dimension

Girish S. Setlur

We introduce an exactly solvable model of a fermi gas in one dimension and compute the momentum distribution exactly. This is based on a generalisation of the ideas of bosonization in one dimension. It is shown that in the RPA limit(the ultra-high density limit) the answers we get are the exact answers for a homogeneous fermi gas interacting via a two-body repulsive coulomb interaction. Furthermore, the solution may be obtained exactly for arbitrary functional forms of the interaction, so long as it is purely repulsive. No linearization of the bare fermion dispersion is required. We find that for the interaction considered, the fermi surface is intact for weak repulsion and is destroyed only for sufficiently strong repulsion. Comparison with other models like the supersymmetric t-J model with inverse square interactions is made.

Bosonization for 2D Interacting Fermion Systems: Non-Fermi Liquid Behavior

Yi-Cong Yu, Y. M. Li, Cv Al

Non-Fermi liquid behavior is found for the first time in a two-dimensional (2D) system with non-singular interactions using Haldane’s bosonization scheme. The bosonized system is solved exactly by a generalized Bogoliubov transformation. The fermion momentum distribution, calculated using a generalized Mattis-Lieb technique, exhibits a non-universal power law in the vicinity of the Fermi surface for intermediate interaction strengths. In recent years, there has been great interest in possible non-Fermi-liquid-like behavior in the ground state of two-dimensional (2D) strongly correlated fermionic systems [1]. It is well-known that in one dimension the ground state of a fermionic system with arbitrarily weak interactions is not a Fermi liquid but a state usually known as a Luttinger liquid [2]. For the 2D case, many studies have suggested that, in the limit of weak interactions, this behavior does not appear [3]. Studies of systems with a small number of particles also suggest Fermi liquid behavior in 2D [4]. Although Khveshchenko et al have found non-Fermi-liquid behavior in 2D, they worked only with a singular long-range current-current interaction [5]. The one-dimensional Luttinger liquid solution can be obtained by a bosonization

Bosonization of Fermi Liquids

Froehlich, Juerg, Roland Goetschmann

We consider systems of non-relativistic, interacting electrons at finite density and zero temperature in d = 2, 3, ... dimensions. Our main concern is to characterize those systems that, under the renormalization flow, are driven away from the Landau Fermi liquid (LFL) renormalization group fixed point. We are especially interested in understanding under what circumstances such a system is a Marginal Fermi liquid (MFL) when the dimension of space is greater or equal than 2 . The interacting electron system is analyzed by combining renormalization group (RG) methods with bosonization techniques. The RG calculations are organized as a double expansion in the inverse scale parameter, $λ^{-1} ,$ which is proportional to the width of the effective momentum space around the Fermi surface and in the running coupling constant, $ g_λ, $ which measures the strength of electron interactions at corresponding energy scales. Excluding a superconducting instability, the system can be analyzed by means of bosonization. The RG and the underlying perturbation expansion in powers of $ λ^{-1} $ serve to characterize the approximations involved by bosonizing the system. We argue that systems with short-range interactions flow to the LFL fixed point. Within the approximations involved by bosonization, the same holds for systems with long-range, longitudinal, density-density interactions. For electron systems interacting via long-range, transverse, current-current interactions a deviation from LFL behaviour is possible : the results of the bosonization calculation are consistent with a MFL, if the exponent parametrizing the singularity of the interaction potential in momentum space is greater than or equal to d-1.

Fermions with long-range interaction

D. Schmeltzer

A renormalization-group analysis combined with bosonization is performed for fermions interacting with repulsive long-range interaction of the form V(R)\ensuremath{\simeq}1/${\mathit{R}}^{(1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\epsilon}}\mathrm{^})}$, 0^\ensuremath{\le}1; we find that in any dimension the system is a non-Fermi liquid with a quasiparticle weight which vanishes like ${\mathit{w}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\epsilon}}\mathrm{^}/4}$ when w\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0. For \ensuremath{\epsilon}^\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0 a marginal Fermi liquid is obtained. A nonperturbative solution is obtained using the bosonization method in d\ensuremath{\ge}1 dimensions. Within the same formalism we investigate also the electron-phonon interaction in dimensions d=3-\ensuremath{\epsilon}. When the coupling constant is imaginary, one obtains a time-dependent potential similar to what is obtained for fermions coupled to transversed U(1) gauge bosons. A non-Fermi-liquid behavior is found for d\ensuremath{\le}3.
