CHIRAL LIQUIDS IN ONE-DIMENSION - A NON-FERMI-LIQUID CLASS OF FIXED-POINTS

identify a non-Fermi-liquid class of fixed points describing the infra red behavior of interacting chiral fermions in one dimension. The ther modynamic properties and asymptotic correlation functions are characte rized by universal exponents, which we determine by means of conformal and Bethe Ansatz techniques. The mechanism leading to the breakdown o f Fermi-liquid theory is quite general and can be expected to be reali zed in systems with broken T invariance; As an example we study the ed ge states of interacting quantum Hall effect systems, where we calcula te the universal NMR response.
