We discuss problems of theory of systems with a fermion condensate or, in different words, systems with flat bands pinned to the Fermi surface, employing the duality of the momentum distribution n(p) and the density distribution ρ(r). We propose that the Lifshitz topological phase transition associated with the formation of additional pockets of the Fermi surface is the precursor of fermion condensation.
