The interplay of interactions and disorder in two-dimensional (2D) electron systems has actively been studied for decades. The paradigmatic approach involves starting with a clean Fermi liquid and perturbing the system with both disorder and interactions. We instead start with a clean non-Fermi liquid near a 2D ferromagnetic quantum critical point and consider the effects of disorder. In contrast with the disordered Fermi liquid, we find that our model does not suffer from runaway flows to strong coupling and the system has a marginally stable fixed point with perfect conduction.

Significant effort has been devoted to the study of non-Fermi liquid (NFL) metals: gapless conducting systems that lack a quasiparticle description. One class of NFL metals involves a finite density of fermions interacting with soft order parameter f luctuations near a quantum critical point. The problem has been extensively studied in a large N limit (N corresponding to the number of fermion flavors) where universal behavior can be obtained by solving a set of coupled saddle-point equations. However a remarkable study by S.-S.~Lee revealed the breakdown of such approximations in two spatial dimensions. We show that an alternate approach, in which the fermions belong to the fundamental representation of a global SU(N) flavor symmetry, while the order parameter fields transform under the adjoint representation (a matrix large N theory), yields a tractable large N limit. At low energies, the system consists of an overdamped boson with dynamical exponent $z=3$ coupled to a non-Fermi liquid with self energy $Sigma(omega) sim omega^{2/3}$, consistent with previous studies.
Non-Fermi liquid (NFL) physics can be realized in quantum dot devices where competing interactions frustrate the exact screening of dot spin or charge degrees of freedom. We show that a standard nanodevice architecture, involving a dot coupled to bot h a quantum box and metallic leads, can host an exotic SO(5) symmetry Kondo effect, with entangled dot and box charge and spin. This NFL state is surprisingly robust to breaking channel and spin symmetry, but destabilized by particle-hole asymmetry. By tuning gate voltages, the SO(5) state evolves continuously to a spin and then flavor two-channel Kondo state. The expected experimental conductance signatures are highlighted.

In this paper we study the low temperature behaviors of a system of Bose-Fermi mixtures at two dimensions. Within a self-consistent ladder diagram approximation, we show that at nonzero temperatures $Trightarrow0$ the fermions exhibit non-fermi liqui d behavior. We propose that this is a general feature of Bose-Fermi mixtures at two dimensions. An experimental signature of this new state is proposed.
Landaus Fermi liquid theory is a cornerstone of quantum many body physics. At its heart is the adiabatic connection between the elementary excitations of an interacting fermion system and those of the same system with the interactions turned off. Rec ently, this tenet has been challenged with the finding of a non-Landau Fermi liquid, that is a strongly interacting Fermi liquid that cannot be adiabatically connected to a non-interacting system. In particular, a spin-1 two-channel Kondo impurity with single-ion magnetic anisotropy $D$ has a topological quantum phase transition at a critical value $D_c$: for $D < D_c$ the system behaves as an ordinary Fermi liquid with a large Fermi level spectral weight, while above $D_c$ the system is a non-Landau Fermi liquid with a pseudogap at the Fermi level, topologically characterized by a non-trivial Friedel sum rule with non-zero Luttinger integrals. Here, we develop a non-trivial extension of this new Fermi liquid theory to general multi-orbital problems with finite magnetic field and we reinterpret in a unified and consistent fashion several experimental studies of iron phthalocyanine molecules on Au(111) metal substrate that were previously described in disconnected and conflicting ways. The differential conductance measured using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) shows a zero-bias dip that widens when the molecule is lifted from the surface and is transformed continuously into a peak under an applied magnetic field. Numerically solving a spin-1 impurity model with single-ion anisotropy for realistic parameter values, we robustly reproduce all these central features, allowing us to conclude that iron phthalocyanine molecules on Au(111) constitute the first confirmed experimental realization of a non-Landau Fermi liquid.
We develop a procedure for detecting Fermi liquid instabilities by extending the analysis of Pomeranchuk to two-dimensional lattice systems. The method is very general and straightforward to apply, thus providing a powerful tool for the search of exo tic phases. We test it by applying it to a lattice electron model with interactions leading to $s$ and d-wave instabilities.
