Interacting one-dimensional quantum fluids are well-studied examples of systems in which the Fermi liquid paradigm of electron-like quasi-particles is known to break down. Instead, Luttinger liquid theory predicts separate spin- and charge-density waves - bosonic in nature - as the fundamental collective excitations at low energies.
Recently, the idea of fermionic quasi-particles for 1D quantum fluids was revived by the interest in dynamics beyond the Luttinger liquid paradigm. Here we propose a constructive approach to introduce fermionic quasi-particles for two-component Luttinger liquids. We point out that a model with weakly interacting fermionic quasi-particles at low energies - a good starting point for the universal theory of nonlinear Luttinger liquids - is a double Luther-Emery Point which can only be reached by fine tuning of strong interactions. Using density matrix renormalization group(DMRG) methods, we search for a lattice realization of this point in an extended Hubbard model with longer-range density-density and spin exchange interactions.
