\title{Kondo effect: magnetic susceptibility}
\begin{itemize}
\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}
\itemptreset
\item Anti-ferromagnetic interaction: $\lambda_0<0$:
$$
\lim_{\beta\to\infty}\chi^{(\lambda_0)}(0,\beta)<\infty.
$$
\item {\it Strong-coupling} effect: the qualitative behavior changes as soon as $\lambda_0\neq0$.

\title{Previous results}
\begin{itemize}
\item \href{http://dx.doi.org/10.1143/PTP.32.37}{[J. Kondo, 1964]}: third order Born approximation.
\item \href{http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0022-3719/3/12/008}{[P. Anderson, 1970]}, \href{http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/RevModPhys.47.773}{[K. Wilson, 1975]}: renormalization group approach
\item{\tt Remark}: \href{http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.45.379}{[N.~Andrei, 1980]}: the Kondo model (suitably linearized) is exactly solvable via Bethe Ansatz (which breaks down under any perturbation of the model).
\end{itemize}

\title{Current results}
\begin{itemize}
\item Hierarchical Kondo model: idealization of the Kondo model that has the same scaling properties.
\item It is {\it exactly solvable}: reduces the system to a 2-dimensional discrete dynamical system.
\item Kondo effect in the hierarchical model.
\end{itemize}

\title{Open problem}
\begin{itemize}
\item Usual approach to the Renormalization group: perturb around the uncoupled theory.
\item Cannot access strongly-coupled effects.
\item Idea: perturb around hierarchical models.
\item How? Which hierarchical models?
\end{itemize}
