The absence of screening of the nonlocal Coulomb interaction in Dirac systems at charge neutrality leads to the breakdown of the Fermi liquid and divergence of the Fermi velocity.

To a first approximation, we find that the generic high-energy features, such as the formation of the upper Hubbard band near the phase transition, are primarily determined by the local effective Hubbard interaction. In the weakly interacting regime, the long-range Coulomb interaction enhances the bandwidth of quasiparticles and suppresses their lifetime.
