Fermi Liquid near a Quantum Critical Point *
We investigate the approach to the quantum critical point of a Pomeranchuk instability from the symmetric, disordered side of the phase diagram. In the low-temperature limit, a Fermi liquid description of the metal is possible and becomes exact for T → 0. We discuss in detail which features of the approach to quantum criticality can be captured within Fermi liquid theory and which are outside o...
متن کاملLocal Quantum Critical Point and Non-Fermi Liquid Properties
Quantum criticality provides a means to understand the apparent nonFermi liquid phenomena in correlated electron systems. How to properly describe quantum critical points in electronic systems has however been poorly understood. The issues have become particularly well-defined due to recent experiments in heavy fermion metals, in which quantum critical points have been explicitly identified. In...
متن کاملNon-Fermi Liquid Fixed Point in 2+1 Dimensions
We construct models of excitations about a Fermi surface that display calculable deviations from Fermi liquid behavior in the low-energy limit. They arise as a consequence of coupling to a Chern-Simons gauge field, whose fluctations are controlled through a 1 kx interaction. The Fermi liquid fixed point is shown to be unstable in the infrared for x < 1, and an infrared-stable fixed point is fou...
متن کاملA misleading Wilsonian fixed point
We exhibit here, for a scalar theory, an apparently non-trivial Wilsonian fixed point, which surprisingly describes a free theory. This modest note is an observation which can be of interest in the framework of functional methods in Quantum Field Theory. The search for Wilsonian fixed points is important in Quantum Field Theory, as these represent configurations independent of the energy scale ...
متن کاملOn non-Fermi liquid quantum critical points in heavy fermion metals
Heavy electron metals on the verge of a quantum phase transition to magnetism show a number of unusual non-fermi liquid properties which are poorly understood. This article discusses in a general way various theoretical aspects of this phase transition with an eye toward understanding the non-fermi liquid phenomena. We suggest that the non-Fermi liquid quantum critical state may have a sharp Fe...
