Recently we have shown that $YbInCu_4$ and related compounds present a solid state Pomeranchuk effect. These systems have a first order volume transition where a local moment phase coexists with a renormalized Fermi liquid in analogy with…
The Pomeranchuk effect is a counterintuitive phenomenon where liquid helium-3 (3He) solidifies under specific pressures, not when cooled, but when heated. This behaviour originates from the magnetic entropy of nuclear spins, suggesting a…
Heating enhances thermal fluctuations and typically leads to melting of solids, but in exceptional cases, heating can also cause liquids to solidify. The paradigm of this counterintuitive phenomenon is solidification of liquid $^3$He upon…
In the present paper we extend the method to detect Pomeranchuk instabilities in lattice systems developed in previous works to study more general situations. The main result presented here is the extension of the method to include finite…
In condensed matter systems, higher temperatures typically disfavors ordered phases leading to an upper critical temperature for magnetism, superconductivity, and other phenomena. A notable exception is the Pomeranchuk effect in 3He, in…

We address at the mean field level the emergence of a Pomeranchuk instability in a uniform Fermi liquid with \emph{central} particle-particle interactions. We find that Pomeranchuk instabilities with all symmetries except $l=1$ can take…
Nematicity in quantum Hall systems has been experimentally well established at excited Landau levels. The mechanism of the symmetry breaking, however, is still unknown. Pomeranchuk instability of Fermi liquid parameter $F_{\ell} \le -1$ in…
