Quantum Theory of Pomeranchuck Transition in Two Dimensional Fermi Liquids via High Dimensional Bosonization
Abstract
Description
We use high dimensional bosonization to derive an effective field theory that describes the Pomeranchuck transition in two-dimensional Fermi liquids. The bosonization approach explicitly retains all low-energy degrees of freedom of the system. The resultant theory has dynamical exponent z=2 at tree level and upper critical dimension d_c=2, thus in 2D the system is at the upper critical dimension. These results differ from those of an earlier study based on integrating out fermions.
