Bosonized theory of de Haas-van Alphen quantum oscillation in Fermi liquids

The de Haas-van Alphen effect (dHvA) of a 2d Fermi liquid remains poorly understood, due to the $\sim\mathcal{O}(1)$ contribution to the oscillations of grand potential from the oscillatory part of the fermionic self energy, which has no known closed-form solution. In this work, we solve this problem via coadjoint-orbit bosonization of the Fermi surface. Compared with the fermionic formalism, the issue of the oscillatory self energy is circumvented. As an effective field theory, Landau parameters $F_{n}$ directly enter the theory. We use the bosonized theory to derive the energies of cyclotron resonance and specific heat, which are consistent with Fermi liquid theory. Via a mode expansion, we show that the problem of dHvA is reduced to 0+1D quantum mechanics. We obtain analytic expressions for the behavior of dHvA at low and high temperatures, which deviate from the well-known Lifshitz-Kosevich formula. We contrast this behavior with that of 3d Fermi liquids, for which we show such deviations are parametrically small. We discuss the effects of disorder on dHvA within the bosonized theory.
