The low temperature properties of a wide range of many-fermion systems are well understood within the framework of Landau's theory of Fermi liquids. The low-energy physics of these systems is governed by interacting fermionic quasiparticles…
We apply the linear $\delta$-expansion (LDE), originally developed as a nonperturbative, analytical approximation scheme in quantum field theory, to problems involving noninteracting electrons in disordered solids. The initial idea that the…

We propose a two band model for superconductivity. It turns out that the simplest nontrivial case considers solely interband scattering, and both bands can be modeled as symmetric (around the Fermi level) and flat, thus each band is…

In material systems with slab geometry, the surface contribution to physical responses is commonly expected to diminish rapidly with increasing thickness, giving way to the bulk response. Here, we show that this conventional wisdom is…
