27 Jun 1994 | Journal: | J.Phys. A28 (1995) 1169-1204 | Abstract: | We present a general method to bosonize systems of Fermions with infinitely many degrees of freedom, in particular systems of non-relativistic electrons at positive density, by expressing the quantized conserved electric charge- and current density in terms of a bosonic antisymmetric tensorfield of a rank d--1, where d is the dimension of space. This enables us to make concepts and tools from gauge theory available for the purpose of analyzing electronic structure of non-relativistic matter. We apply our bosonization identities and concepts from gauge theory, such as Wegner -’t Hooft duality, to a variety of systems of condensed matter physics: Landau-Fermi liquids, Hall fluids, London superconductors, etc.. Among our results are an exact formula for the plasmon gap in a metal, a simple derivation of the Anderson-Higgs mechanism in superconductors, and an analysis of the orthogonality catastrophe for static sources. | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/9406154 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
