Recent advances in description of few two-component fermions

Overview of the recent advances in description of the few two-component fermions is presented. The model of zero-range interaction is generally considered to discuss the principal aspects of the few-body dynamics. Particular attention is paid to detailed description of two identical fermions of mass $m$ and a distinct particle of mass $m_1$: it turns out that two $L^P = 1^-$ three-body bound states emerge if mass ratio $m/m_1$ increases up to the critical value $μ_c \approx 13.607$, above which the Efimov effect takes place. The topics considered include rigorous treatment of the few-fermion problem in the zero-range interaction limit, low-dimensional results, the four-body energy spectrum, crossover of the energy spectra for $m/m_1$ near $μ_c$, and properties of potential-dependent states. At last, enlisted are the problems, whose solution is in due course.
