New physics of metals: fermi surfaces without Fermi liquids.

P W Anderson 1
PMCID: PMC41393  PMID: 11607559

Abstract

I relate the historic successes, and present difficulties, of the renormalized quasiparticle theory of metals ("AGD" or Fermi liquid theory). I then describe the best-understood example of a non-Fermi liquid, the normal metallic state of the cuprate superconductors.
