Fermi-edge singularity changes in a dramatic way in a nonequilibrium system, acquiring features which reflect the structure of energy distribution. In particular, it splits into several components if the energy distribution exhibits…
The interaction between the Fermi sea of conduction electrons and a non-adiabatic attractive impurity potential can lead to a power-law divergence in the tunneling probability of charge through the impurity. The resulting effect, known as…

We formulate the problem of the Fermi Edge Singularity in non-equilibrium states of a Fermi gas as a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem with an integrable kernel. This formulation is the most suitable for studying the singular behavior at each…
A semiclassical wave-packet propagating in a dissipationless Fermi gas inevitably enters a "gradient catastrophe" regime, where an initially smooth front develops large gradients and undergoes a dramatic shock wave phenomenon. The…
Fermi-edge absorption theory predicting the spectrum, A(\omega)\propto \omega^{-2\delta_0/\pi+\delta^2_0/\pi^2}, relies on the assumption that scattering phase, \delta_0, is frequency-independent. Dependence of \delta_0 on \omega becomes…
We theoretically study a charge qubit interacting with electrons in a semi-infinite 1D wire. The system displays the physics of the Fermi edge singularity. Our results generalize known results for the Fermi-edge system to the regime where…
We study the photoabsorption cross section and Fermi-edge singularities (FES) in graphene. For fillings below one half, we find, besides the expected FES in form of a peaked edge at the threshold (Fermi) energy, a second singularity to…
In a quasi two-dimensional electron system with non-zero layer thickness, a parallel magnetic field (B||) can couple to the out-of-plane electron motion and lead to a severe distortion and eventual disintegration of the Fermi contour. Here…

We study the effects of strong coupling of a localized state charge to one-dimensional electronic channels out of equilibrium. While the state of this charge and the coupling strengths determine the scattering phase shifts in the channels,…
Properties of the distribution of single-particle levels adjacent to the Fermi surface in finite Fermi systems are studied, focusing on the case in which these levels are degenerate. The interaction of the quasiparticles occupying these…
Fermions in the Fermi gas obey the Pauli exclusion principle restricting any two fermions from filling the same quantum state. Strong interaction between fermions can completely change the properties of the Fermi gas. In our theoretical…
We address theoretically the puzzling discontinuity of the radial quadrupole mode frequency observed in a trapped Fermi gas across the BEC-BCS crossover. We apply the scaling transformation to a two-channel model of a resonant Fermi…
We consider elastic single-particle scattering from a one-dimensional two-component trapped superfluid Fermi gas when the incoming projectile particle is identical to one of the confined species. Our theoretical treatment is based on the…
We report on the observation of spontaneous bursts of coherent radiation from a quantum-degenerate gas of nonequilibrium electron-hole pairs in semiconductor quantum wells. Unlike typical spontaneous emission from semiconductors, which…
The effect of strong anisotropy on the Fermi line of a system of correlated electrons is studied in two space dimensions, using renormalization group techniques. Inflection points change the scaling exponents of the couplings, enhancing the…
We investigate the behaviour of a single qubit coupled to a low-dimensional, ultra-cold Fermi gas. The scattering between the system and the fermions leads to the loss of any coherence in the initial state of the qubit and we show that the…
A single-channel quantum wire with two well-separated Zeeman subbands and in the presence of a weak spin-orbit coupling is considered. An impurity level which is split off the upper subband is degenerate with the continuum of the lower…
