We propose in this paper an effective low-energy theory for interacting fermion systems which supports exclusion statistics. The theory can be viewed as an extension of Landau Fermi liquid theory where besides quasi-particle energy $xi_{mathbf{k}}$, the kinetic momentum $mathbf{k}$ of quasi-particles depends also on quasi-particle occupation numbers as a result of momentum ($k$)-dependent current-current interaction. The dependence of kinetic momentum on quasi-particles excitations leads to change in density of states and exclusion statistics. The properties of this new Fermi liquid state is studied where we show that the state (which we call $U(1)$-Fermi liquid state) has Fermi-liquid like properties except that the quasi-particles are {em not} adiabatically connected to bare fermions in the system and the state may not satisfy Luttinger theorem.

We study in this paper the general properties of a many body system of fermions in arbitrary dimensions assuming that the {em momentum} of individual fermions are good quantum numbers of the system. We call these systems $k$-Fermi liquids. We show ho
w Fermi liquid, Luttinger liquid (or Fermi liquid with exclusion statistics) and spin-charge separation arises from this framework. Two exactly solvable $k$-Fermi liquid models with spin-charge separation are discussed as examples.
We investigate the role of generic scale invariance in a Mott transition from a U(1) spin-liquid insulator to a Landau Fermi-liquid metal, where there exist massless degrees of freedom in addition to quantum critical fluctuations. Here, the Mott quan
tum criticality is described by critical charge fluctuations, and additional gapless excitations are U(1) gauge-field fluctuations coupled to a spinon Fermi surface in the spin-liquid state, which turn out to play a central role in the Mott transition. An interesting feature of this problem is that the scaling dimension of effective leading local interactions between critical charge fluctuations differs from that of the coupling constant between U(1) gauge fields and matter-field fluctuations in the presence of a Fermi surface. As a result, there appear dangerously irrelevant operators, which can cause conceptual difficulty in the implementation of renormalization group (RG) transformations. Indeed, we find that the curvature term along the angular direction of the spinon Fermi surface is dangerously irrelevant at this spin-liquid Mott quantum criticality, responsible for divergence of the self-energy correction term in U(1) gauge-field fluctuations. Performing the RG analysis in the one-loop level based on the dimensional regularization method, we reveal that such extremely overdamped dynamics of U(1) gauge-field fluctuations, which originates from the emergent one-dimensional dynamics of spinons, does not cause any renormalization effects to the effective dynamics of both critical charge fluctuations and spinon excitations. However, it turns out that the coupling between U(1) gauge-field fluctuations and both matter-field excitations still persists at this Mott transition, which results in novel mean-field dynamics to explain the nature of the spin-liquid Mott quantum criticality.
At certain quantum critical points in metals an entire Fermi surface may disappear. A crucial question is the nature of the electronic excitations at the critical point. Here we provide arguments showing that at such quantum critical points the Fermi
surface remains sharply defined even though the Landau quasiparticle is absent. The presence of such a critical Fermi surface has a number of consequences for the universal phenomena near the quantum critical point which are discussed. In particular the structure of scaling of the universal critical singularities can be significantly modified from more familiar criticality. Scaling hypotheses appropriate to a critical fermi surface are proposed. Implications for experiments on heavy fermion critical points are discussed. Various phenomena in the normal state of the cuprates are also examined from this perspective. We suggest that a phase transition that involves a dramatic reconstruction of the Fermi surface might underlie a number of strange observations in the metallic states above the superconducting dome.
We report transport and thermodynamic properties of stoichiometric single crystals of the hexagonal iron-pnictide FeCrAs. The in-plane resistivity shows an unusual non-metallic dependence on temperature T, rising continuously with decreasing T from ~
800 K to below 100 mK. The c-axis resistivity is similar, except for a sharp drop upon entry into an antiferromagnetic state at T_N 125 K. Below 10 K the resistivity follows a non-Fermi-liquid power law, rho(T) = rho_0 - AT^x with x<1, while the specific heat shows Fermi liquid behaviour with a large Sommerfeld coefficient, gamma ~ 30 mJ/mol K^2. The high temperature properties are reminiscent of those of the parent compounds of the new layered iron-pnictide superconductors, however the T -> 0 properties suggest a new class of non-Fermi liquid.
We perform a microscropic analysis of how the constraints imposed by conservation laws affect $q=0$ Pomeranchuk instabilities in a Fermi liquid. The conventional view is that these instabilities are determined by the static interaction between low-en
ergy quasiparticles near the Fermi surface, in the limit of vanishing momentum transfer $q$. The condition for a Pomeranchuk instability is set by $F^{c(s)}_l =-1$, where $F^{c(s)}_l$ (a Landau parameter) is a properly normalized partial component of the anti-symmetrized static interaction $F(k,k+q; p,p-q)$ in a charge (c) or spin (s) sub-channel with angular momentum $l$. However, it is known that conservation laws for total spin and charge prevent Pomeranchuk instabilities for $l=1$ spin- and charge- current order parameters. Our study aims to understand whether this holds only for these special forms of $l=1$ order parameters, or is a more generic result. To this end we perform a diagrammatic analysis of spin and charge susceptibilities for charge and spin density order parameters, as well as perturbative calculations to second order in the Hubbard $U$. We argue that for $l=1$ spin-current and charge-current order parameters, certain vertex functions, which are determined by high-energy fermions, vanish at $F^{c(s)}_{l=1}=-1$, preventing a Pomeranchuk instability from taking place. For an order parameter with a generic $l=1$ form-factor, the vertex function is not expressed in terms of $F^{c(s)}_{l=1}$, and a Pomeranchuk instability does occur when $F^{c(s)}_1=-1$. We argue that for other values of $l$, a Pomeranchuk instability occurs at $F^{c(s)}_{l} =-1$ for an order parameter with any form-factor
