In interaction-dominated two-dimensional electron gases at intermediate temperatures, electron transport is not diffusive as in the conventional Drude picture but instead hydrodynamic. The relevant transport coefficient in this regime is the shear viscosity. Here, we develop a numerically exact basis expansion to solve the Fermi liquid equation, and apply it to compute the shear viscosity of the electron gas with screened Coulomb interactions. Our calculations are valid at all temperatures and in particular describe the response beyond the asymptotic low-temperature limit, where perturbative approaches exist. We show that even in this low-temperature limit, there is a nonanalytic exchange contribution to the shear viscosity, highlighting the need for a full nonperturbative solution of the Fermi liquid equation. We hope that the techniques developed in this work will serve as a platform to determine the response of interacting Fermi liquids.

  1. A low-energy effective Hamiltonian for Landau quasiparticles: II Application to the contact Fermi gas

    cond-mat.quant-gas 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Second-order corrections in the scattering length shift the zero-sound velocity by factors exp(6) (density) and exp(-2) (polarization) relative to RPA predictions in a weakly interacting Fermi gas.

  2. A low-energy effective Hamiltonian for Landau quasiparticles: I. A unified theory of transport and superfluidity in Fermi liquids

    cond-mat.quant-gas 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A single effective Hamiltonian built from an energy cutoff unifies Landau interactions, collisions, and pairing, yielding new zero-sound prefactors and the Gor'kov-Melik-Barkhudarov correction for Fermi gases.

  3. Magnetic field suppression of tomographic electron transport

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2024-11 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A small magnetic field suppresses tomographic electron transport at a field scale set by the odd-parity mean free path, much below the scale for hydrodynamic suppression.

  4. Tomographic flow regime vs even-odd effect for the magnetotransport in the Corbino geometry

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a Corbino disk, long-lived odd angular harmonics make the resistance sensitivity to B-squared peak at small magnetic fields, strongest near the tomographic crossover.
