The interrelation between disorder and interactions in two dimensional electron liquid is studied beyond weak coupling perturbation theory. Strong repulsion significantly reduces the electronic density of states on the Fermi level. This…
Recent spectroscopic measurements in a number of strongly correlated metals that exhibit non-Fermi liquid like properties have observed evidence of anomalous frequency and momentum-dependent charge-density fluctuations. Specifically, in the…
A fundamental challenge to our current understanding of metals is the frequent observation of qualitative departures from Fermi liquid behavior. The standard view attributes such non-Fermi liquid phenomena to the scattering of electrons off…
We consider transport of dilute two-dimensional electrons, with temperature between Fermi and Debye temperatures. In this regime, electrons form a nondegenerate plasma with mobility limited by potential disorder. Different kinds of…
The breakdown of the celebrated Fermi liquid theory in the strange metal phase is the central enigma of correlated quantum matter. Motivated by recent experiments reporting short-lived carriers, along with the ubiquitous observations of…
The two-channel Kondo lattice model is examined with a Quantum Monte Carlo simulation in the limit of infinite dimensions. We find non-fermi-liquid behavior at low temperatures including a finite low-temperature single-particle scattering…
We apply the muffin-tin effective medium approximation to calculate the temperature dependence of the resistivity and of the thermopower of amorphous and liquid metals. The results show unambiguously that a large resistivity is accompanied…
We present the ${\cal O}(\lambda^3)$ results from the $\lambda$ expansion in the extremely correlated Fermi liquid theory applied to the infinite-dimensional $t$-$J$ model (with $J=0$), and compare the results with the earlier ${\cal…
Theoretically, it is commonly held that in metals near a nematic quantum critical point the electronic excitations become incoherent on the entire `hot' Fermi surface, triggering non Fermi liquid behavior. However, such conclusions are…
Magnetic impurity effects in carbon nanotubes are studied theoretically. The multi channel Kondo effect is investigated with the band structure of the metallic nanotubes. The local non-Fermi liquid behavior is realized at temperatures lower…
At low temperatures, a system built from a small droplet of electrons and a larger, but still finite, droplet may display non-Fermi-liquid behavior. Stabilization of a multi-channel Kondo fixed point requires fine control of the…
We present a detailed discussion of both theoretical and experimental evidence in favour of the existence of states of ``confined coherence'' in metals of sufficiently high anisotropy and with sufficiently strong correlations. The defining…
Monovalent non-transition metals are robust Fermi liquids. They defy superconductivity even at lowest temperatures (Li is a minor exception:Tc $\approx$ 0.4 mK). However, Thapa and Pandey \cite{ThapaPandey} have recently reported signals…
We consider a version of the symmetric Anderson impurity model (compactified) which has a non-Fermi liquid weak coupling regime. We find that in the Majorana fermion representation, perturbation theory can be conveniently developed in terms…
We use Landau's theory of a normal Fermi liquid to derive expressions for the static response of a system with a general tensor interaction that conserves the total spin and the total angular momentum of the quasiparticle-quasihole pair.…
We develop the complete theory for the collective plasmon modes of an interacting electron system in the presence of explicit mass (or velocity) anisotropy in the corresponding non-interacting situation, with the effective Fermi velocity…
An instability of a diffusive Fermi liquid, indicative of a metal-insulator transition (expected to be of first order), arising solely from the competition between quenched disorder and short-ranged interparticle interactions is identified…

The interlayer magnetoresistance of a quasi-one-dimensional Fermi liquid is considered for the case of a magnetic field that is rotated within the plane perpendicular to the most-conducting direction. Within semi-classical transport theory…
A model of copper-oxygen bonding and anti-bonding bands with the most general two-body interactions allowable by symmetry is considered. The model has a continuous transition as a function of hole-density x and temperature T to a phase in…
