20. Interwire forward scattering is not explicitly included in our model as it can be recast in a mere renormalization of the intrawire interaction strength gj of each wire. We also neglect electron tunneling between the two wires for two reasons: (i) It is a less relevant process than HC in a renormalization group sense, A. Komnik and R. Egger, Eur. Phys. J. B 19, 271 (2001). (ii) It can be tuned to zero in a Coulomb drag experiment. We assume it to be away from half-filling where umklapp scattering is forbidden. EPJBFY 1434-6028 10.1007/s100510170336
