Dimensional crossover in ultracold Fermi gases from functional renormalization

We investigate the dimensional crossover from three to two dimensions in an ultracold Fermi gas across the whole BCS-BEC crossover. Of particular interest is the strongly interacting regime as strong correlations are more pronounced in reduced dimensions. Our results are obtained from first principles within the framework of the functional renormalisation group (FRG). Here, the confinement of the transverse direction is imposed by means of...
