Self–Consistent Conserving Theory for Quantum Impurity Systems: Renormalization Group Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
We review the diagrammatic, conserving theory for quantum impurities with strong on-site repulsion. The method is based on auxiliary particle technique, where Wick’s theorem is valid, which opens up the possibility for generalizations to more complicated situations. An analysis in terms of the perturbative renormalization group (RG) shows that on the level of the Conserving T– matrix Approximation the theory correctly describes the RG flow, including the non-scaling of potential scattering terms and the correct Kondo temperature.

Spectral Properties of the Anderson Impurity Model: Comparison of Numerical Renormalization Group and Non–Crossing Approximation
A comparative study of the numerical renormalization group and non– crossing approximation results for the spectral functions of the U = ∞ Anderson impurity model is carried out. The non–crossing approximation is the simplest conserving approximation and has led to useful insights into strongly correlated models of magnetic impurities. At low energies and temperatures the method is known to be ...
متن کاملFunctional renormalization group approach to zero-dimensional interacting systems
We apply the functional renormalization group method to the calculation of dynamical properties of zero-dimensional interacting quantum systems. As case studies we discuss the anharmonic oscillator and the single impurity Anderson model. We truncate the hierarchy of flow equations such that the results are at least correct up to second order perturbation theory in the coupling. For the anharmon...
متن کاملA Numerical Renormalization Group approach to Non-Equilibrium Green’s Functions for Quantum Impurity Models
We present a method for the calculation of dynamical correlation functions of quantum impurity systems out of equilibrium using Wilson’s numerical renormalization group. Our formulation is based on a complete basis set of the Wilson chain and embeds the recently derived algorithm for equilibrium spectral functions. Our method fulfills the spectral weight conserving sum-rule exactly by construct...
متن کاملThe numerical renormalization group method for quantum impurity systems
In the beginning of the 1970’s, Wilson developed the concept of a fully non-perturbative renormalization group transformation. Applied to the Kondo problem, this numerical renormalization group method (NRG) gave for the first time the full crossover from the high-temperature phase of a free spin to the low-temperature phase of a completely screened spin. The NRG has been later generalized to a ...
متن کاملSpin-Dependent Local Moment Approach to Anderson Impurity Model
We present an extension of the local moment approach to the Anderson impurity model with spin-dependent hybridization. By employing the two self-energy description, as originally proposed by Logan and coworkers, we applied the symmetry restoration condition for the case with spin-dependent hybridization. Self-consistent ground states were determined through the variational minimization of groun...
