Density fluctuations and compressibility matrix for population or mass imbalanced Fermi-Fermi mixtures

We describe the relation between the isothermal atomic compressibility and density fluctuations in mixtures of two-component fermions with population or mass imbalance. We derive a generalized version of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem which is valid for both balanced and imbalanced Fermi-Fermi mixtures. Furthermore, we show that the compressibility, its critical exponents, and phase boundaries can be extracted via an analysis of the density fluctuations as a function of population imbalance, interaction parameter or temperature. Lastly, we demonstrate that in the presence of trapping potentials, the local compressibility and local density-density correlations can be extracted via a generalized fluctuation-dissipation theorem valid within the local density approximation.
