Toward precision Fermi liquid theory in two dimensions
arXiv:2212.05177 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.107.043314
Abstract
The ultra-cold and weakly-coupled Fermi gas in two spatial dimensions is studied in an effective field theory framework. It has long been observed that universal corrections to the energy density to two orders in the interaction strength do not agree with Monte Carlo simulations in the weak-coupling regime. Here, universal corrections to three orders in the interaction strength are obtained for the first time, and are shown to provide agreement between theory and simulation. Special consideration is given to the scale ambiguity associated with the non-trivial renormalization of the singular contact interactions. The isotropic superfluid gap is obtained to next-to-leading order, and nonuniversal contributions to the energy density due to effective range effects, p-wave interactions and three-body forces are computed. Results are compared with precise Monte Carlo simulations of the energy density and the contact in the weakly-coupled attractive and repulsive Fermi liquid regimes. In addition, the known all-orders sum of ladder and ring diagrams is compared with Monte Carlo simulations at weak coupling and beyond.
