Non chiral bosonization of a luttinger liquid

Abstract

In this work the powerful Non chiral bosonization technique NCBT is introduced which is a non trivial modification of the standard Fermi Bose correspondence in one spatial dimension made in order to facilitate the study of strongly inhomogeneous Luttinger liquids LL where the properties of free fermions plus the source of inhomogeneities are reproduced exactly The formalism is applied to obtain the correlation functions of translationally non invariant systems like LL with a cluster of im...
