Electron Liquid In Disordered Conductors

This volume proceeds from a description of a disordered electron liquid via effective functional or diffusion modes to a theory of interacting electrons in disordered conductors that is of the Fermi-liquid type but with renormalizable parameters. The influence of disorder on the temperature of the superconducting transition in homogeneous amorphous films is analyzed theoretically. Critical properties in the vicinity of metal-insulator transitions are discussed and spin instability is considered: the latter shows the great importance of spin fluctuation in the region of the transition.
