Abstract: We rigorously analyze the quantum phase transition between a metallic and an insulating phase in (non solvable) interacting spin chains or one dimensional fermionic systems. In particular, we prove the persistence of Luttinger liquid behavior in the presence of an interaction even arbitrarily close to the critical point, where the Fermi velocity vanishes and the two Fermi points coalesce. The analysis is based on two different multiscale analysis; the analysis of the first regime provides gain factors which compensate exactly the small divisors due to the vanishing Fermi velocity.

Review text

The authors focus on the quantum phase transition between a metallic and an insulating phase in interacting spin-chains or one-dimensional fermionic systems. The paper displays a detailed study of the behaviour of the system close to the metal insulator transition, using an expansion uniformly convergent in a domain of parameters which include the critical point. The study is expanded around the first regime and the second regime (in the metallic phase) of the renormalization group integration.
