Description
We review some aspects of the renormalization group method for interacting fermions. Special emphasis is placed on the application of scaling theory to quasi-one-dimensional systems at non zero temperature. We begin by introducing the scaling ansatz for purely one-dimensional fermion systems and its extension when interchain coupling and dimensionality crossovers are present at finite temperature. Next, we review the application of the renormalization group technique to the one-dimensional electron gas model and clarify some peculiarities of the method at the two-loop level. The influence of interchain coupling is then included and results for the crossover phenomenology and the multiplicity of characteristic energy scales are summarized. The emergence of the Kohn-Luttinger mechanism in quasi-one-dimensional electronic structures is discussed fo both superconducting and density-wave channels.
