Non-fermi liquid behavior due to \(U(1)\) gauge field in two dimensions




Abstract: We study the damping rate of massless Dirac fermions due to the U(1) gauge field in (2+1)-dimensional quantum electrodynamics. In the absence of a Maxwell term for the gauge field, the fermion damping rate mathrmImSigma(omega,T) is found to diverge in both perturbative and self-consistent results. In the presence of a Maxwell term, there is still divergence in the perturbative results for mathrmImSigma(omega,T). Once the Maxwell term is included into the self-consistent equations for fermion self-energy and vacuum polarization functions, the fermion damping rate is free of divergence and exhibits non-Fermi liquid behavior: mathrmImSigma(omega,T)proptomathrmmax(sqrtomega,sqrtT).
