Minimum model calculations on the co-action of hole vanishing Lifshitz transitions and correlation effects in ferropnictides are presented. The calculations predict non-Fermi-liquid behaviour and huge mass enhancements of the charge carriers at the Fermi level. The findings are compared with recent ARPES experiments and with measurements of transport and thermal properties of ferropnictides. The results from the calculation can be also applied to other unconventional superconductors and question the traditional view of quantum-critical points.
