Classical behavior of strongly correlated Fermi systems near a quantum critical point. Transport properties

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

The low-temperature kinetics of the strongly correlated electron liquid inhabiting a solid is analyzed. It is demonstrated that a softly damped branch of transverse zero sound emerges when several bands cross the Fermi surface simultaneously near a quantum critical point at which the density of states diverges. Suppression of the damping of this branch occurs due to a mechanism analogous to that affecting the phonon mode in solids at room temperature, giving rise to a classical regime of transport at extremely low temperatures in the strongly correlated Fermi system.
