We describe the development of a systematic theory of excitations in strongly interacting Fermi systems. Technically, we derive the equations of motion for multi–pair excitations from a stationarity principle. This method has, in Fermi systems, so far been developed only to the level of one–particle–one–hole excitations, where it leads to the (correlated) random phase approximation (RPA). We extend the analysis here to pair excitations. Our work is motivated by the fact that time–dependent pair correlations are necessary for explaining the physics of the phonon–roton spectrum in 4 He . It is therefore plausible that the same processes also have visible effects in the excitation spectrum of 3 He . Further motivation is derived from recent measurements of the dynamic structure function in two–dimensional 3 He . We first formulate the theory for a second quantized, weakly interacting Hamiltonian and then generalize the theory to a correlated ground state. We show that the inclusion of Jastrow–Feenberg type correlations leads to prescriptions for calculating weak effective interactions from a microscopic, strongly interacting Hamiltonian.

We analytically study quantum dissipative dynamics described by the Caldirola-Kanai model with inter-particle interactions. We have found that the dissipative quantum dynamics of the Caldirola-Kanai model can be exactly mapped to a dissipationless quantum dynamics under a negative external harmonic potential, even when the particles are strongly interacting. In particular, we show that the mapping is valid for the unitary Fermi gas, which is relevant for cold atoms and nuclear matters.

An overview is given of our present understanding of superconductivity with spontaneously broken translation symmetry in polarized Fermi systems. The existence of "crystalline" superconducting phases is considered in a wide range of systems, prominent examples being conduction electrons in metals, ultra-cold atoms in a trap, nuclear matter and dense quark systems. The underlying physics is delineated and theoretical approaches to the inhomogeneous phases and their properties are discussed. From the experimental side, it is argued that superconductivity with imbalance-induced order parameters is realized in layered organic compounds and potentially in heavy-fermion systems.
