In this work we provide a bosonized version of the Thirring model in 2+1 dimensions in the case of single fermion species, where we do not have the benefit of large N expansion. In this situation there are very few analytical methods to…
We present a two dimensional model of superconductivity where bosonization of fermions is described by topological fermion-boson duality. The model solves the discrepancy between theoretical and empirical values of penetration depth and…
I recently proposed a method of bosonization based on the use of coherent states of fermion composites, whose validity was restricted to smooth structure functions. In the present paper I remove this limitation and derive results which hold…
The one-dimensional Kondo lattice model is investigated by using bosonization techniques and conformal field theory. In the half-filled band, the charge and spin gaps open for the anti-ferromagnetic Kondo coupling. Away from half-filling,…
This review is devoted to the application of bosonization techniques to two dimensional QCD. We start with a description of the ``abelian bosonization". The methods of the abelian bosonization are applied to several examples like the…
Confined quantum systems involving $N$ identical interacting fermions are found in many areas of physics, including condensed matter, atomic, nuclear and chemical physics. In a previous series of papers, a manybody perturbation method that…
This review is a summary of my work (partially in collaboration with Kurt Schoenhammer) on higher-dimensional bosonization during the years 1994-1996. It has been published as a book entitled "Bosonization of interacting fermions in…
In this paper, we generalize Witten's non-abelian bosonization in $(1+1)$-D to two and three spatial dimensions. Our theory applies to fermions with relativistic dispersion. The bosonized theories are non-linear sigma models with level-1…
As the title suggests, this is an attempt at bosonizing fermions in any number of dimensions without paying attention to the fact that the Fermi surface is an extended object. One is tempted to introduce the density fluctuation and its…
We discuss recent results on bosonization in $d \geq 2$ space-time dimensions by giving a very simple derivation for the bosonic representation of the original free fermionic model both in the abelian and non-abelian cases. We carefully…
We consider a Fermi liquid model with density-density as well as quadrupolar forward scattering interactions parametrized by the Landau parameters $F_0$ and $F_2$. Using bosonization and a decimation technique, we compute collective modes…
We investigate fermion liquids interacting with longitudinal and transverse abelian gauge fields via bosonization. In two spatial dimensions we obtain the fermion propagator for the specific case of a Coulomb plus Chern-Simons gauge action.…
Characterizing and accessing quantum phases of itinerant bosons or fermions in two dimensions (2D) that exhibit singular structure along surfaces in momentum space but have no quasi-particle description remains as a central challenge in the…
We develop a bosonization procedure on the half line. Different boundary conditions, formulated in terms of the vector and axial fermion currents, are implemented by using in general the mixed boundary condition on the bosonic field. The…
In [1] a new bosonization procedure has been illustrated, which allows to express a fermionic gaussian system in terms of commuting variables at the price of introducing an extra dimension. The Fermi-Bose duality principle established in…
We consider a local effective model for fermionic low lying excitations in a metal. Introducing a boson auxiliary field and taking into account that the most significant interactions between quasiparticles arise for those which are near a…
This is an expanded version of a lecture given at the {\it Workshop on Theoretical Methods for Strongly Correlated Fermions}, held at the {\it Centre de Recherches Math\'ematiques}, in Montr\'eal, from May 26 to May 30, 1999. After general…
A procedure of bosonization of Fermions in an arbitrary dimension is suggested. It is shown that a quadratic expression in the fermionic fields after rescaling time $t\to t/\lambda^2$ and performing the limit $\lambda\to0$ (stochastic…
We show that bosonization in two dimensions can be derived as a special case of the duality transformations that have recently been used to good effect in string theory. This allows the construction of the bosonic counterpart of any…
We revisit bosonization of non-relativistic fermions in one space dimension. Our motivation is the recent work on bubbling half-BPS geometries by Lin, Lunin and Maldacena (hep-th/0409174). After reviewing earlier work on exact bosonization…
