Reckoning with the Mother of all non-Fermi liquids: alien bosonization vs predator holography

Abstract

This note addresses the problem of computing fermion propagators in a broad variety of strongly correlated systems that can be mapped onto the theory of fermions coupled to an (over)damped bosonic mode. A number of the previously applied approaches and their results are reviewed, including the conventional diagrammatic resummation and eikonal technique, as well as the 'experimental' higher dimensional bosonization and generalized (i.e., 'bottom-up' or 'non-AdS/non-CFT') holographic conjecture. It appears that, by and large, those results remain either in conflict or incomplete, thereby suggesting that the ultimate solution to this ubiquitous problem is yet to be found.
