6. Studies on Unitary Fermi gas: Zero-rang interaction, Infinite scattering length, The only parameter akF goes to infinity (no expansion parameter ) Physical quantities become universal (scaled by Fermion density). Usual diagrammatic method is not reliable. (There is no expansion parameters. ) e.g.,

11. In Unitary limit and at Region of akF>0 Free Bose Gas (approximately) Mean field gives exact solution. Fluctuation develops as one goes to lower dimension Non-trivial vacuum: the unitary Fermi gas If expansion coefficients of epsilon are convergent, extrapolation to d=3 might give reliable results, a la, Wilsonian epsilon approach.

Here we impose the scaling to boson chemical pot.: so that reflecting free Bose gas. 1) 2)

17. In the Unitary limit: In BEC limit: from large B expansion up to B^2, we find

18. In BCS limit: Comparable to result by K. Huang and C.N. Yang (1956) Mean-field is exponentially small Two-loop gives a slope. Since we can not expect that physics at d=4 is trivial as free Bose gas anymore, counting rules should be changed: And B serves as an effective Boson mass at region of akF<0.

21. 4) Summary and outlook We have extended the epsilon expansion method to finite scattering region. Result, Slope and curvature of E/A and Chemical pot., is in overall good agreement with QMC and other low energy theorems.
