Abstract

We analyze potential non-analytic terms in the Landau diamagnetic susceptibility, χdia\chi_{dia}, at a finite temperature TT and/or in-plane magnetic field HH in a two-dimensional (2D) Fermi liquid. To do this, we express the diamagnetic susceptibility as χdia=(e/c)2limQ0ΠJJ(Q)/Q2\chi_{dia} = (e/c)^2 \lim_{Q\rightarrow0} \Pi^{JJ}_\perp (Q)/Q^2, where ΠJJ\Pi^{JJ}_\perp is the transverse component of the static current-current correlator, and evaluate ΠJJ(Q)\Pi^{JJ}_\perp (Q) for a system of fermions with Hubbard interaction to second order in Hubbard UU by combining self energy, Maki-Thompson, and Aslamazov-Larkin diagrams. We find that at T=H=0T=H=0, the expansion of ΠJJ(Q)/Q2\Pi^{JJ}_\perp (Q)/Q^2 in UU is regular, but at a finite TT and/or HH, it contains U2TU^2 T and/or U2HU^2 |H| terms. Similar terms have been previously found for the paramagnetic Pauli susceptibility. We obtain the full expression for the non-analytic δχdia(H,T)\delta \chi_{dia} (H,T) when both TT and HH are finite, and show that the H/TH/T dependence is similar to that for the Pauli susceptibility.
