Bond breaking and bond formation: how electron correlation is captured in many-body perturbation theory and density-functional theory.
For the paradigmatic case of H(2) dissociation, we compare state-of-the-art many-body perturbation theory in the GW approximation and density-functional theory in the exact-exchange plus random-phase approximation (RPA) for the correlation energy. For an unbiased comparison and to prevent spurious starting point effects, both approaches are iterated to full self-consistency (i.e., sc-RPA and sc...
متن کاملElectron-phonon coupling and charge-transfer excitations in organic systems from many-body perturbation theory
We review in the present article recent developments within the framework of ab initio manybody perturbation theory aiming at providing an accurate description of the electronic and excitonic properties of π-conjugated organic systems currently used in organic photovoltaic cells. In particular, techniques such as the GW and Bethe-Salpeter formalisms are being benchmarked for acenes, fullerenes,...

متن کاملA NUMERICAL RENORMALIZATION GROUP APPROACH FOR AN ELECTRON-PHONON INTERACTION
A finite chain calculation in terms of Hubbard X-operators is explored by setting up a vibronic Harniltonian. The model conveniently transformed into a form so that in the case of strong coupling a numerical renormalization group approach is applicable. To test the technique, a one particle Green function is calculated for the model Harniltonian
متن کاملMany-body perturbation theory using the density-functional concept: beyond the GW approximation.
We propose an alternative formulation of many-body perturbation theory that uses the density-functional concept. Instead of the usual four-point integral equation for the polarizability, we obtain a two-point one, which leads to excellent optical absorption and energy-loss spectra. The corresponding three-point vertex function and self-energy are then simply calculated via an integration, for a...
