SUMMARY:Nonlinear Quantum Liquids in One Dimension\, Physics Department Colloquium\, Leonid Glazman\, Yale University
DESCRIPTION:The conventional description of one-dimensional quantum fluids is based on the Luttinger liquid theory. In that theory\, the true energy-momentum relation of particles making up the fluid is replaced by a linear one. This simplification is crucial for the theory\, and abandoning it has proven to be difficult. The talk presents a breakthrough which allowed one to circumvent the difficulty. The new theory describes dynamic responses of a fluid consisting of particles with a generic spectrum. It is applicable to a diverse group of systems\, including\, for example\, electrons in quantum wires and cold atomic gases in one-dimensional traps.
