Quantum Criticality of 1D Attractive Fermi Gas

We obtain an analytical equation of state for one-dimensional strongly attractive Fermi gas for all parameter regime in current experiments. From the equation of state we derive universal scaling functions that control whole thermodynamical properties in quantum critical regimes and illustrate physical origin of quantum criticality. It turns out that the critical properties of the system are described by these of free fermions and those of mixtures of fermions with mass $m$ and $2m$. We also show how these critical properties of bulk systems can be revealed from the density profile of trapped Fermi gas at finite temperatures and can be used to determine the T=0 phase boundaries without any arbitrariness.
