Renormalization Group Theory for the Imbalanced Fermi Gas

Abstract

We formulate a wilsonian renormalization group theory for the imbalanced Fermi gas. The theory is able to recover quantitatively well-established results in both the weak-coupling and the strong-coupling (unitarity) limit. We determine for the latter case the line of second-order phase transitions of the imbalanced Fermi gas and in particular the location of the tricritical point. We obtain good agreement with the recent experiments of Y. Shin et al. [Nature 451, 689 (2008)].
