We establish the correspondence between an extended version of the two-channel Anderson model and a particular type of bi-resonant level model. For certain values of the parameters the new model becomes quadratic. We calculate in closed…
We study by NRG the spectral properties of a two-orbital Anderson impurity model in the presence of an exchange splitting which follows either regular or inverted Hund's rules. The phase diagram contains a non-Fermi liquid fixed point…
We use the numerical renormalization group method to study the O(3)-symmetric version of the impurity Anderson model of Coleman and Schofield. This model is of general interest because it displays both Fermi liquid and non-Fermi liquid…

Quantum impurity models are the prototypical examples of quantum many-body dynamics which manifests in their spectral and transport properties. Single channel Anderson(and Kondo model) leads to the Fermi liquid ground state in the strong…
We develop a theory for a generic instability of a Fermi liquid in dimension d>1 against the formation of a Luttinger-liquid-like state. The density of states at the Fermi level is the order parameter for the ensuing quantum phase…
Numerical renormalization-group results on entropy of the anisotropic two-channel Kondo model with the band-width cutoff ($D$) in the presence of a magnetic field ($h$) are obtained to determine crossover temperature from the non-Fermi…
We study a quantum phase transition which occurs in a system composed of two impurities (or quantum dots) each coupled to a different interacting (Luttinger-liquid) lead. While the impurities are coupled electrostatically, there is no…
Many correlated metallic materials are described by Landau Fermi-liquid theory at low energies, but for Hund metals the Fermi-liquid coherence scale $T_{\text{FL}}$ is found to be surprisingly small. In this Letter, we study the simplest…
Transient and steady state currents through dc-biased quantum impurity models beyond the linear response regime are of considerable interest, both from an experimental and a theoretical point of view. Here we present a new analytical…
Zero temperature phase transitions not only occur in the bulk of quantum systems, but also at boundaries or impurities. We review recent work on quantum phase transitions in impurity models that are generalizations of the standard Kondo…
We generalize Nozi\`eres' Fermi-liquid theory for the low-energy behavior of the Kondo model to that of the single-impurity Anderson model. In addition to the electrons' phase shift at the Fermi energy, the low-energy Fermi-liquid theory is…
A generalized Anderson single-impurity model with off-site Coulomb interactions is derived from the extended three-band Hubbard model, originally proposed to describe the physics of the copper-oxides. Using the abelian bosonization…
We study a quantum impurity coupled to the edge states of a two-dimensional helical topological superconductor, i.e., to a pair of counterpropagating Majorana fermion edge channels with opposite spin polarizations. For an impurity described…
