We present a nonperturbative renormalization group solution of the Gell-Mann--Levy $\sigma$-model which was originally proposed as a phenomenological description of the dynamics of nucleons and mesons. In our version of the model the…
We compare different methods used for non-perturbative calculations in strongly interacting fermionic systems. Mean field theory often shows a basic ambiguity related to the possibility to perform Fierz transformations. The results may then…
A unitary Fermi gas has a surprisingly rich spectrum of large amplitude modes of the pairing field alone, which defies a description within a formalism involving only a reduced set of degrees of freedom, such as quantum hydrodynamics or a…

We study the stability of p-wave superfluidity against quantum fluctuations in two-dimensional Fermi gases near a p-wave Feshbach resonance . An analysis is carried out in the limit when the interchannel coupling is strong. By investigating…

The strongly attractive Fermi gas in the BCS-BEC crossover is efficiently described in terms of coupled fermions and fermion pairs, or molecules. We compute the spectral functions of both fermions and pairs in the normal state near the…
The role of fluctuations is enhanced in lower dimensionality systems: in a two dimensions off-diagonal long-range order is destroyed by the fluctuations at any finite temperature, drastically modifying the critical properties with respect…
Superfluidity and superconductivity are genuine many-body manifestations of quantum coherence. For finite-size systems the associated pairing gap fluctuates as a function of size or shape. We provide a parameter free theoretical description…
We study the structure of Bogoliubov quasiparticles, 'bogolons,' the fermionic excitations of paired superfluids that arise from fermion (BCS) pairing, including neutral superfluids, superconductors, and paired quantum Hall states. The…
We describe a way to continue the fermionic renormalization group flow into phases with broken global symmetry. The method does not require a Hubbard-Stratonovich decoupling of the interaction. Instead an infinitesimally small…
This paper gives a survey of a diagrammatic approach for fermionic pairing fluctuations, which are relevant to the BCS-BEC crossover realized with ultracold Fermi gases. Emphasis will be given to the physical intuition about the relevant…
We present a functional renormalization group flow for many-fermion lattice models into phases with broken spin-rotational symmetry. The flow is expressed purely in terms of fermionic vertex functions. The symmetry breaking is seeded by a…
We analyze the quantum phase transition between a semimetal and a superfluid in a model of attractively interacting fermions with a linear dispersion. The quantum critical properties of this model cannot be treated by the Hertz-Millis…
We use Wegner's flow equation method to investigate the infinite-$U$ periodic Anderson model. We show that this method poses a new approach to the description of heavy fermion behaviour. Within this scheme we derive an effective Hamiltonian…
Using analogies between flow equations from the Functional Renormalization Group and flow equations from (numerical) fluid dynamics we investigate the effects of bosonic fluctuations in a bosonized Gross-Neveu model -- namely the…
The standard Bogoliubov transformation is generalized to enable fermion number parity breaking. The new transformation can diagonalize fermion Hamiltonians that are quadratic in fermion and number parity operators. This new variational…
We study an exchange coupled system of itinerant electrons and localized fermion pairs resulting in a resonant pairing formation. This system inherently contains resonating fermion pairs on bonds which lead to a superconducting phase…
