We theoretically investigate physical properties and strong-coupling effects in
the BCS-BEC crossover regime of a superfluid Fermi gas at T=0. Within the
framework of an extended T-matrix approximation, we evaluate various quantities,
such as the compressibility, chemical potential, sound velocity, as well as the Tan’s
contact. The calculated compressibility and chemical potential are shown to agree
well with the recent experiments on a
6
Li superfluid Fermi gas in the crossover
region. We also discuss how superfluid fluctuations affect these quantities at T=0.
Our results would be useful for the understanding of quantum many-body effects
in a strongly interacting Fermi superfluid.

We theoretically investigate normal state properties of a Bose-Fermi mixture
with a strong attractive interaction between Fermi and Bose atoms. We extend
the ordinary T-matrix approximation (TMA) with respect to Bose-Fermi pairing
fluctuations, to include the Hugenholtz-Pines’ relation for all Bose Green’s
functions appearing in TMA self-energy diagrams. This extension is shown to be
essentially important to correctly describe physical properties of the Bose-Fermi
mixture, especially near the BEC instability. Using this improved TMA, we clarify
how the formation of composite fermions affects Bose and Fermi single-particle
excitation spectra, over the entire interaction strength.
