Local moment phases in quantum impurity problems
- Abstract:
-
This thesis considers quantum impurity models that exhibit a quantum phase transition (QPT) between a Fermi liquid strong coupling (SC) phase, and a doubly-degenerate non-Fermi liquid local moment (LM) phase. We focus on what can be said from exact analytic arguments about the LM phase of these models, where the system is characterized by an SU(2) spin degree of freedom in the entire system.
Conventional perturbation theory about the non-interacting limit does not hold in the non-Fe...
