Abstract [en]

Two-dimensional Fermi liquids at low temperatures have been theoretically established to exhibit an odd-even effect in the collective quasiparticle relaxation rates where even-parity deformations of the Fermi surface decay at a much faster rate than odd-parity ones. A predicted consequence of this effect is a new tomographic transport regime that mixes hydrodynamic and collisionless transport. In the presence of a magnetic field, however, the tomographic regime is expected to evolve towards conventional transport regimes as soon as the cyclotron radius becomes smaller than the dominant odd-parity mean-free path. In this work, we examine this transition from the point of view of collective modes, using a numerically exact solution of the linearized Boltzmann equation within a generalized relaxation time approximation for the odd-parity and even-parity modes. In the absence of a magnetic field, the transverse conductivity exhibits two diffusive tomographic collective modes, and we find that at a critical magnetic field one of these two tomographic modes disappears. Which tomographic mode persists depends on the Landau parameters, and becomes increasingly dominated by hydrodynamic modes at high fields. We corroborate our analysis using a variational approach for the Fermi surface deformation that captures the angular structure of the deformation and the critical magnetic field strength. The collective modes discussed here can in principle be observed by examining the damping of longitudinal and transverse current responses in finite magnetic fields.
