\item $H_0$: kinetic term of the {\it electrons}

\item Non-interacting magnetic susceptibility
\itemptchange{$\scriptstyle\blacktriangleright$}
\begin{itemize}
\item Isolated impurity: $\chi^{(0)}(0,\beta)\displaystyle\mathop{\longrightarrow}_{\beta\to\infty}\infty$
\item Chain of electrons: $\displaystyle\lim_{\beta\to\infty}\lim_{L\to\infty}\frac1L\chi_e(0,\beta)<\infty.$
\end{itemize}

\item Anti-ferromagnetic interaction: $\lambda_0<0$:
$$
\lim_{\beta\to\infty}\chi^{(\lambda_0)}(0,\beta)<\infty.
$$
\item {\it Non-perturbative} effect: the qualitative behavior changes as soon as $\lambda_0\neq0$.

\title{Previous results}
\begin{itemize}
\item [J.~Kondo, 1964]: third order Born approximation.

\item [P.~Anderson, 1970], [K.~Wilson, 1975]: renormalization group approach
\itemptchange{$\scriptstyle\blacktriangleright$ }
\begin{itemize}
\item Sequence of effective Hamiltonians at varying energy scales.
\item For anti-ferromagnetic interactions, the effective Hamiltonians go to a {\it non-trivial fixed point}.
\end{itemize}
\itemptreset
\item{\tt Remark}: [N.~Andrei, 1980]: the Kondo model (suitably linearized) is exactly solvable via Bethe Ansatz.

\title{Current results}
\begin{itemize}
\item Hierarchical Kondo model: idealization of the Kondo model that shares its scaling properties.
\item It is {\it exactly solvable}: the map relating the effective theories at different scales is {\it explicit} (no perturbative expansions).
\item For $\lambda_0<0$, the flow tends to a non-trivial fixed point, and $\chi^{(\lambda_0)}<\infty$ in the $\beta\to\infty$ limit (Kondo effect).
