Non-perturbative effect of the formation of a chiral symmetry breaking condensate <\bar\psi\psi> and of a dynamically generated fermion mass in QED in the presence of an external magnetic field is considered. The dynamical mass of a fermion…

We consider a perturbed version of a very simple and exactly solvable model that supports Fermi arcs and pseudogap in its ground state and excitation spectrum, which includes Hubbard-like interactions in both momentum and real spaces. We…
$G_2$-QCD, in which the exceptional Lie group $G_2$ replaces the $SU(3)$ gauge group of QCD, does not suffer from a fermion sign problem. It can therefore be simulated also at comparatively low temperatures and high densities on the…
We analyze quantum fluctuation effects at the onset of charge or spin density wave order in two-dimensional metals with an incommensurate $2k_F$ wave vector connecting a single pair of hot spots on the Fermi surface. We compute the momentum…

We consider the effects of a noisy magnetic field background over the fermion propagator in QED, as an approximation to the spatial inhomogeneities that would naturally arise in certain physical scenarios, such as heavy-ion collisions or…
We derive an energy density functional for non-relativistic spin one-half fermions in the limit of a divergent two-body scattering length. Using an epsilon expansion around d=4-epsilon spatial dimensions we compute the coefficient of the…
We compute the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat of normal (non-color-superconducting) degenerate quark matter as well as that of an ultradegenerate electron gas. Long-range magnetic interactions lead to non-Fermi-liquid…
We compute the 1-loop vertex function of the QCD coupling in the presence of an ultra intense magnetic field. From the vertex function, we extract the effective coupling and show that it grows with increasing magnetic field. We consider the…
Taking into account the anomalous self-energy for quarks due to the dynamic screening effect for the transverse gluon propagator, we study the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility in detail. It is shown that there does not…
We study integrations over light-cone momenta in the high energy effective action of QCD. After a review of the effective action, we arrive on a regularization mechanism from matching with QCD diagrams, which we apply to a re-derivation of…
We outline a new programme of solving the problem of treating strong interactions in field theories. The programme does not involve perturbation theories and associated problems of divergences. We apply our recent idea of treating strongly…
Spin-orbit-coupled two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) are a textbook example of helical Fermi liquids, i.e. quantum liquids in which spin (or pseudospin) and momentum degrees-of-freedom at the Fermi surface have a well-defined…
We include nonfactorizable soft gluon corrections into the perturbative QCD formalism for exclusive nonleptonic heavy meson decays, which combines factorization theorems and effective field theory. These corrections are classified according…
On the basis of the Fermi liquid theory, we investigate the many-body effect on the Drude weight. In a lattice system, the Drude weight $D$ is modified by electron-electron interaction due to Umklapp processes, while it is not renormalized…
A mean field analysis of finite density QCD is presented including the effects of additional chiral invariant four-fermion interactions. A lattice regularization is used with N_f=4 flavors of staggered fermions. The use of the four-fermion…
These lectures serve as an introduction to the renormalization group approach to effective field theories, with emphasis on systems with a Fermi surface. For such systems, demanding appropriate scaling with respect to the renormalization…
