Luttinger Liquids: The Basic Concepts

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

This chapter reviews the theoretical description of interacting fermions in one dimension. The Luttinger liquid concept is elucidated using the Tomonaga-Luttinger model as well as integrable lattice models. Weakly coupled chains and attempts to experimentally verify the theoretical predictions are discussed.
