Many-body vacuum diagrams and their recursive graphical construction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The grand-canonical potential of many-body physics can be considered as a functional of the interaction-free correlation function. As such it obeys a nonlinear functional differential equation which can be turned into a recursion relation. This is solved graphically order by order in the two-particle interaction to find all connected vacuum diagrams with their proper weights. As a special case, the procedure is applied to generate the Hugenholtz diagrams for a weakly interacting Bose gas.

Recursive graphical construction of Feynman diagrams and their multiplicities in f and fA theory
The free energy of a field theory can be considered as a functional of the free correlation function. As such it obeys a nonlinear functional differential equation that can be turned into a recursion relation. This is solved order by order in the coupling constant to find all connected vacuum diagrams with their proper multiplicities. The procedure is applied to a multicomponent scalar field th...
متن کاملRecursive Graphical Solution of Closed Schwinger-Dyson Equations in φ-Theory – Part1: Generation of Connected and One-Particle Irreducible Feynman Diagrams
Recently, it has been shown that the Schwinger-Dyson equations of QED can be closed in a certain functionalanalytic sense [8]. Using functional derivatives with respect to the free propagators and the interaction [8–14] two closed sets of equations were derived. The first one involves the connected electron and two-point function as well as the connected three-point function, whereas the second...
متن کاملGeneration of Diagrams
In Section 5.4, we have developed a functional formalism to find all connected vacuum diagrams and their multiplicities. These serve as a basis for deriving all diagrams contributing to two-and four-point functions. This is done by removing from the connected vacuum diagrams one line and two lines, respectively. Instead of the two lines we may also remove a vertex, as pointed out in Section 5.5...
متن کاملA recursive construction of a class of finite normalized tight frames
Finite normalized tight frames are interesting because they provide decompositions in applications and some physical interpretations. In this article, we give a recursive method for constructing them.
متن کاملFunctional Closure of Schwinger–Dyson Equationsin Quantum Electrodynamics1. Generation of Connected and One-Particle Irreducible Feynman Diagrams
Using functional derivatives with respect to free propagators and interactions we derive a closed set of Schwinger–Dyson equations in quantum electrodynamics. Its conversion to graphical recursion relations allows us to systematically generate all connected and one-particle irreducible Feynman diagrams for the n-point functions and the vacuum energy together with their correct weights.
