Abstract: We study the effect of electron-electron interaction on the one-particle density of states (DOS) rho((d))(epsilon,T) of low-dimensional disordered metals near Fermi energy within the framework of the finite temperature conventional impurity diagram technique. We consider only diffusive limit and, by a geometric resummation of the most singular first-order self-energy corrections via the Dyson equation, we obtain a nondivergent solution for the DOS at low energies while for higher energies the well-known Altshuler-Aronov corrections are recovered. At the Fermi level rho((d))(epsilon,T=0)-> 0, this indicates that interacting disordered two-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional systems are in insulating state at zero temperature. The obtained results are in good agreement with recent tunneling experiments on two-dimensional GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures and quasi-one-dimensional doped multiwall carbon nanotubes.
