Sublinear transport in Kagome metals from the interplay of Dirac cones and Van Hove singularities.

Recent experiments have revealed that many kagome metals exhibit sublinear temperature dependence in resistivity up to room temperature. Here, we develop a minimal semiclassical two-pocket model-comprising a Dirac cone and a Van Hove singularity-and show that, within an extended Fermi liquid scattering framework, internode electron-electron interactions naturally lead to sublinear scaling in both electrical and thermal transport at low temperatures. At higher temperatures, distinct scattering channels for charge and heat currents lead to a violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law. Our work provides a simple and broadly applicable framework for understanding anomalous transport in kagome metals, capturing non-Fermi-liquid behavior without requiring fine-tuning or exotic interactions.
