Interacting spinning fermions with strong quasi-random disorder are analyzed via rigorous Renormalization Group (RG) methods combined with KAM techniques. The correlations are written in terms of an expansion whose convergence follows from number-theoretical properties of the frequency and cancellations due to Pauli principle. A striking difference appears between spinless and spinning fermions; in the first case there are no relevant effective interactions while in presence of spin an additional relevant quartic term is present in the RG flow. The large distance exponential decay of the correlations present in the non interacting case, consequence of the single particle localization, is shown to persist in the spinning case only for temperatures greater than a power of the many body interaction, while in the spinless case this happens up to zero temperature.

We consider a system of fermions with a quasi-random almost-Mathieu disorder interacting through a many-body short range potential. We establish exponential decay of the zero temperature correlations, indicating localization of the interacting ground state, for weak hopping and interaction and almost everywhere in the frequency and phase; this extends the analysis in cite{M} to chemical potentials outside spectral gaps. The proof is based on Renormalization Group and is inspired by techniques developed to deal with KAM Lindstedt series.
We consider a fermionic many body system in Zd with a short range interaction and quasi-periodic disorder. In the strong disorder regime and assuming a Diophantine condition on the frequencies and on the chemical potential, we prove at $T=0$ the exponential decay of the correlations and the vanishing of the Drude weight, signaling Anderson localization in the ground state. The proof combines Ward Identities, Renormalization Group and KAM Lindstedt series methods.
We analyze the ground state localization properties of an array of identical interacting spinless fermionic chains with quasi-random disorder, using non-perturbative Renormalization Group methods. In the single or two chains case localization persists while for a larger number of chains a different qualitative behavior is generically expected, unless the many body interaction is vanishing. This is due to number theoretical properties of the frequency, similar to the ones assumed in KAM theory, and cancellations due to Pauli principle which in the single or two chains case imply that all the effective interactions are irrelevant; in contrast for a larger number of chains relevant effective interactions are present.
Highly unconventional behavior of the thermodynamic response functions has been experimentally observed in a narrow gap semiconductor samarium hexaboride. Motivated by these observations, we use renormalization group technique to investigate many-body instabilities in the f-orbital narrow gap semiconductors with band inversion in the limit of weak coupling. After projecting out the double occupancy of the f-orbital states, we formulate a low-energy theory describing the interacting particles in two hybridized electron- and hole-like bands. The interactions are assumed to be weak and short-ranged. We take into account the difference between the effective masses of the quasiparticles in each band. Upon carrying out the renormalization group analysis we find that there is only one stable fixed point corresponding to the excitonic instability with time-reversal symmetry breaking for small enough mismatch between the effective masses.
We propose the use of an orthogonal wave packet basis to analyze the low-energy physics of interacting electron systems with short range order. We give an introduction to wave packets and the related phase space representation of fermion systems, and show that they lend themselves to an efficient description of short range order. We illustrate the approach within an RG calculation for the one-dimensional Hubbard chain.
