Strongly interacting fermions

It is shown that strongly interacting Fermi systems, such as ³He, transition metals, and the heavy-fermion systems can be consistently described within the ``induced''-interaction Fermi-liquid formalism. The general limiting features of the model are considered. In agreement with the Gutzwiller (half-filled case) solution to the Hubbard model, there is a localization of excitations as F₀ˢ and F₁ˢ{→}{∞}. Some of the large m* originate from a large ``dynamic'' mass, m_λ for f electrons, which is then shown to be further increased by many-body effects. In disagreement with the Gutzwiller solution in the half-filled case, but in agreement with the less-than-half-filled case, the compression modulus goes to a finite value as F₀ˢ,F₁ˢ{→}{∞}, so that---in a jellium model---the Debye frequency FTHETAD has a finite value. The implication of the spin-dependent parameter F₀ᵃ going to a finite limit are discussed. In particular, it is shown that ferromagnetic ordering cannot occur in the case of a short-ranged potential.
