We derive analytical expressions for the frequency and damping of the lowest collective modes of a two-dimensional Fermi gas using kinetic theory. For strong coupling, we furthermore show that pairing correlations overcompensate the effects of Pauli blocking on the collision rate for a large range of temperatures, resulting in a …
