Non-Fermi Liquids in the Extended Hubbard Model

Abstract

I summarize recent work on non-Fermi liquids within certain generalized Anderson impurity model as well as in the large dimensionality ($D$) limit of the two-band extended Hubbard model. The competition between local charge and spin fluctuations leads either to a Fermi liquid with renormalized quasiparticle excitations, or to non-Fermi liquids with spin-charge separation. These results provide new insights into the phenomenological similarities and differences between different correlated metals. While presenting these results, I outline a general strategy of local approach to non-Fermi liquids in correlated electron systems.
