We study an exactly solvable quantum field theory (QFT) model describing interacting fermions in 2+1 dimensions. This model is motivated by physical arguments suggesting that it provides an effective description of spinless fermions on a square lattice with local hopping and density-density interactions if, close to half filling, the system develops a partial energy gap. The necessary regularization of the QFT model is based on this proposed relation to lattice fermions. We use bosonization methods to diagonalize the Hamiltonian and to compute all correlation functions. We also discuss how, after appropriate multiplicative renormalizations, all short- and long distance cutoffs can be removed. In particular, we prove that the renormalized two-point functions have algebraic decay with non-trivial exponents depending on the interaction strengths, which is a hallmark of Luttinger-liquid behavior.
An important question is whether the Mattis model describes a 2D Luttinger liquid @cite_5 . Different regularizations and treatments of Mattis-like models can give different results, as exemplified by Refs. @cite_3 and @cite_44 : these works are on such models that differ in regularization details of the interaction, they use different methods, and they obtain different results. This suggests to us that it is important to be mathematically precise both in the definition of the model and of Luttinger-liquid behavior, as well as in the methods used to study them.

We consider a system of two-dimensional interacting fermions with a flat Fermi surface. The apparent conflict between Luttinger and non-Luttinger liquid behaviors found through different approximations is resolved by showing the existence of a line of nontrivial fixed points, for the renormalization group (RG) flow, corresponding to Luttinger liquid behavior; the presence of marginally relevant operators can cause flow away from the fixed point. The analysis is nonperturbative and based on the implementation, at each RG iteration, of Ward identities obtained from local phase transformations depending on the Fermi surface side, implying the partial vanishing of the beta function. We consider a new mathematical model for nematic liquid crystal proposed by J. Ericksen using Landau’s order parameter approach. In this model, the static configuration of liquid crystal can be described by a map minimizing certain degenerate variational integral. Here we prove that minimizers exist and are Holder continuous. Abstract Motivated by the study on the uniqueness problem of the coupled model, in this paper, we revisit 2d incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in bounded domains. In fact, we establish some new smoothing estimates to the Leray solution based on the spectral analysis of Stokes operator. To understand well these estimates, on one hand, we establish some new Brezis–Waigner type inequalities in general domain and in any dimension and disclose the connection between both of them. On the other hand, we show that these new estimates can be applied to prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solutions for two coupled models: Boussinesq system with partial viscosity (no dissipation for the temperature) and Fluid Particle system, in two dimension and in bounded domains. We compute mean field phase diagrams of two closely related interacting fermion models in two spatial dimensions (2D). The first is the so-called 2D t-t′-V model describing spinless fermions on a square lattice with local hopping and density-density interactions. The second is the so-called 2D Luttinger model that provides an effective description of the 2D t-t′-V model and in which parts of the fermion degrees of freedom are treated exactly by bosonization. In mean field theory, both models have a charge-density-wave (CDW) instability making them gapped at half-filling. The 2D t-t′-V model has a significant parameter regime away from half-filling where neither the CDW nor the normal state are thermodynamically stable. We show that the 2D Luttinger model allows to obtain more detailed information about this mixed region. In particular, we find in the 2D Luttinger model a partially gapped phase that, as we argue, can be described by an exactly solvable model.
