Comparative study of many-body perturbation theory and time-dependent density functional theory in the out-of-equilibrium Anderson model
2011
We study time-dependent electron transport through an Anderson model. The electronic interactions on the impurity site are included via the self-energy approximations at Hartree-Fock (HF), second Born (2B), GW, and T-matrix levels as well as within a time-dependent density functional (TDDFT) scheme based on the adiabatic Bethe-ansatz local density approximation (ABALDA) for the exchange-correlation potential. The Anderson model is driven out of equilibrium by applying a bias to the leads, and its nonequilibrium dynamics is determined by real-time propagation. The time-dependent currents and densities are compared to benchmark results obtained with the time-dependent density matrix renormali…
Stochastic Models of Higher Order Dielectric Responses
2018
The nonlinear response for systems exhibiting Markovian stochastic dynamics is calculated using time-dependent perturbation theory for the Green’s function, the conditional probability to find the system in a given configuration at a certain time given it was in another configuration at an earlier time. In general, the Green’s function obeys a so-called master-equation for the balance of the gain and loss of probability in the various configurations of the system. Using various models for the reorientational motion of molecules it is found that the scaled modulus of the third-order response, \(X_3\), shows a hump-like behavior for random rotational motion in some cases and it exhibits “triv…
2021-$H_0$ Odyssey: Closed, Phantom and Interacting Dark Energy Cosmologies
2021
Up-to-date cosmological data analyses have shown that \textit{(a)} a closed universe is preferred by the Planck data at more than $99\%$ CL, and \textit{(b)} interacting scenarios offer a very compelling solution to the Hubble constant tension. In light of these two recent appealing scenarios, we consider here an interacting dark matter-dark energy model with a non-zero spatial curvature component and a freely varying dark energy equation of state in both the quintessential and phantom regimes. When considering Cosmic Microwave Background data only, a phantom and closed universe can perfectly alleviate the Hubble tension, without the necessity of a coupling among the dark sectors. Accountin…
Linear-response theory for Mukherjee's multireference coupled-cluster method: Static and dynamic polarizabilities
2012
The formalism of response theory is applied to derive expressions for static and dynamic polarizabilities within the state-specific multireference coupled-cluster theory suggested by Mukherjee and co-workers (Mk-MRCC) [J. Chem. Phys. 110, 6171 (1998)]. We show that the redundancy problem inherent to Mk-MRCC theory gives rise to spurious poles in the Mk-MRCC response functions, which hampers the reliable calculation of dynamic polarizabilities. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in the case of a symmetry-breaking perturbation a working response theory is obtained only if certain internal excitations are included in the responses of the cluster amplitudes. Exemplary calculations within the sing…
Perturbative treatment of scalar-relativistic effects in coupled-cluster calculations of equilibrium geometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies …
2007
An analytic scheme for the computation of scalar-relativistic corrections to nuclear forces is presented. Relativistic corrections are included via a perturbative treatment involving the mass-velocity and the one-electron and two-electron Darwin terms. Such a scheme requires mixed second derivatives of the nonrelativistic energy with respect to the relativistic perturbation and the nuclear coordinates and can be implemented using available second-derivative techniques. Our implementation for Hartree-Fock self-consistent field, second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory, as well as the coupled-cluster level is used to investigate the relativistic effects on the geometrical parameters an…
Towards the Hartree-Fock and coupled-cluster singles and doubles basis set limit: A study of various models that employ single excitations into a com…
2010
In explicitly correlated coupled-cluster singles and doubles [CCSD(F12)] calculations, the basis set incompleteness error in the double excitations is reduced to such an extent that the error in the Hartree–Fock energy and the error in the single excitations become important. Using arguments from perturbation theory to systematically truncate the coupled-cluster singles and CCSD(F12) Lagrangians, a series of coupled-cluster models are proposed and studied that reduce these basis set incompleteness errors through additional single excitations into a complementary auxiliary basis. Convergence with model and size of complementary basis is rapid and there appears to be no need to go beyond seco…
Axial, induced pseudoscalar, and pion-nucleon form factors in manifestly Lorentz-invariant chiral perturbation theory
2006
We calculate the nucleon form factors G_A and G_P of the isovector axial-vector current and the pion-nucleon form factor G_piN in manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory up to and including order O(p^4). In addition to the standard treatment including the nucleon and pions, we also consider the axial-vector meson a_1 as an explicit degree of freedom. This is achieved by using the reformulated infrared renormalization scheme. We find that the inclusion of the axial-vector meson effectively results in one additional low-energy coupling constant that we determine by a fit to the data for G_A. The inclusion of the axial-vector meson results in an improved description of t…
Form factors for semileptonic B -> pi and D -> pi decays from the Omnes representation
2000
We use the Omnes representation to obtain the q-squared dependence of the form factors f+ and f0 for semileptonic H -> pi decays from the elastic pi H -> pi H scattering amplitudes, where H denotes a B or D meson. The scattering amplitudes used satisfy elastic unitarity and are calculated from two-particle irreducible amplitudes obtained using tree-level heavy meson chiral perturbation theory (HMChPT). The q-squared dependences for the form factors agree with lattice QCD results when the HMChPT coupling constant, g, takes values smaller than 0.32, and confirm the milder dependence of f0 on q-squared found in sumrule calculations.

Some aspects of the nonperturbative renormalization of the phi^4 model
2007
A nonperturbative renormalization of the phi^4 model is considered. First we integrate out only a single pair of conjugated modes with wave vectors +/- q. Then we are looking for the RG equation which would describe the transformation of the Hamiltonian under the integration over a shell Lambda - d Lambda < k < Lambda, where d Lambda -> 0. We show that the known Wegner--Houghton equation is consistent with the assumption of a simple superposition of the integration results for +/- q. The renormalized action can be expanded in powers of the phi^4 coupling constant u in the high temperature phase at u -> 0. We compare the expansion coefficients with those exactly calculated by the…
