Universal Fermi-surface anisotropy renormalization for interacting Dirac fermions with long-range interactions
ORAL
Abstract
Recent evidence suggest an intriguing universal relationship between the Fermi surface anisotropy of the non-interacting parent two-dimensional electron gas and the strongly correlated composite Fermi liquid formed in a strong magnetic field close to half-filling. Inspired by these observations, we explore more generally the question of anisotropy renormalization in interacting 2D Fermi systems. Using a recently developed [1] non-perturbative and numerically-exact projective quantum Monte Carlo simulation as well as other numerical and analytic techniques, only for Dirac fermions with long-range Coulomb interactions do we find a universal square-root decrease of the Fermi-surface anisotropy [2]. Our proposed universality can be tested in several anisotropic Dirac materials including graphene, topological insulators and organic conductors.
