Abstract

Computing momentum-dependent susceptibilities in the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) requires solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation, which demands large computational cost. Exploiting the strong-coupling feature of local fluctuations, we derive a simplified formula that can be solved at a considerably lower cost. The validity and the physical meaning of the formula are confirmed by deriving the effective intersite interactions in the strong-coupling limit, such as the kinetic exchange and RKKY interactions. Furthermore, numerical calculations for single-orbital and multiorbital models demonstrate surprisingly wider applicability including a weak-coupling region. Based on this formula, we propose three levels of practical approximations that can be chosen depending on complexity of problems. Simpler evaluations of spin and orbital susceptibilities in multiorbital systems thus become possible within DMFT.

Dual Bethe-Salpeter equation for the multiorbital lattice susceptibility within dynamical mean-field theory

Erik G. C. P. van Loon, Hugo U. R. Strand

Dynamical mean-field theory describes the impact of strong local correlation effects in many-electron systems. While the single-particle spectral function is directly obtained within the formalism, two-particle susceptibilities can also be obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation. The solution requires handling infinite matrices in Matsubara frequency space. This is commonly treated using a finite frequency cutoff, resulting in slow linear convergence. A decomposition of the two-particle response in local and nonlocal contributions enables a reformulation of the Bethe-Salpeter equation inspired by the dual boson formalism. The reformulation has a drastically improved cubic convergence with respect to the frequency cutoff, considerably facilitating the calculation of susceptibilities in multi-orbital systems. This improved convergence arises from the fact that local contributions can be measured in the impurity solver. The dual Bethe-Salpeter equation uses the fully reducible vertex which is free from vertex divergences. We benchmark the approach on several systems including the spin susceptibility of strontium ruthenate Sr2RuO4 , a strongly correlated Hund's metal with three active orbitals.

Parametrizations of local vertex corrections from weak to strong coupling: Importance of the Hedin three-leg vertex

Viktor Harkov, Alexander I. Lichtenstein, Friedrich Krien

In the study of correlated systems, approximations based on the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) provide a practical way to take local vertex corrections into account, which capture, respectively, particle-particle screening at weak coupling and the formation of the local moment at strong coupling. We show that in both limits the local vertex corrections can be efficiently parametrized in terms of single-boson exchange, such that the two-particle physics described by DMFT and its diagrammatic extensions is recovered to good approximation and at a reduced computational cost. Our investigation highlights the importance of the frequency-dependent fermion-boson coupling (Hedin vertex) for local vertex corrections. Namely, at weak coupling the fermion--spin-boson coupling suppresses the N\'eel temperature of the DMFT approximation compared with the static mean field, whereas for large interaction it facilitates a huge enhancement of local spin-fluctuation exchange, giving rise to the effective-exchange energy scale $4{t}^{2}/U$. We find that parametrizations of the vertex which neglect the nontrivial part of the fermion-boson coupling fail qualitatively at strong coupling.

Efficient Bethe-Salpeter equation treatment in dynamical mean-field theory

Agnese Tagliavini, Stefan Hummel, Nils Wentzell +3 more

We present here two alternative schemes designed to correct the high-frequency truncation errors in the numerical treatment of the Bethe-Salpeter equations. The schemes are applicable to all Bethe-Salpeter calculations with a local two-particle irreducible vertex, which is relevant, e.g., for the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) and its diagrammatic extensions. In particular, within a purely diagrammatic framework, we could extend existing algorithms for treating the static case in the particle-hole sector to more general procedures applicable to all bosonic frequencies and all channels. After illustrating the derivation and the theoretical interrelation of the two proposed schemes, these have been applied to the Bethe-Salpeter equations for the auxiliary Anderson impurity models of selected DMFT calculations, where results can be compared against a numerically ``exact'' solution. The successful performance of the proposed schemes suggests that their implementation can significantly improve the accuracy of DMFT calculations at the two-particle level, in particular for more realistic multiorbital calculations where the large number of degrees of freedom substantially restricts the actual frequency range for numerical calculations, as well as---on a broader perspective---of the diagrammatic extensions of DMFT.

Dynamical mean-field theory of indirect magnetic exchange

Irakli Titvinidze, Andrej Schwabe, Niklas Rother +1 more

To analyze the physical properties arising from indirect magnetic exchange between several magnetic adatoms and between complex magnetic nanostructures on metallic surfaces, the real-space extension of dynamical mean-field theory (R-DMFT) appears attractive as it can be applied to systems of almost arbitrary geometry and complexity. While R-DMFT describes the Kondo effect of a single adatom exactly, indirect magnetic (RKKY) exchange is taken into account on an approximate level only. Here, we consider a simplified model system consisting of two magnetic Hubbard sites (``adatoms'') hybridizing with a noninteracting tight-binding chain (``substrate surface''). This two-impurity Anderson model incorporates the competition between the Kondo effect and indirect exchange but is amenable to an exact numerical solution via the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG). The particle-hole symmetric model at half filling and zero temperature is used to benchmark R-DMFT results for the magnetic coupling between the two adatoms and for the magnetic properties induced in the substrate. In particular, the dependence of the local adatom and the nonlocal adatom-adatom static susceptibilities as well as the magnetic response of the substrate on the distance between the adatoms and on the strength of their coupling with the substrate is studied. We find excellent agreement with the DMRG data even on subtle details of the competition between RKKY exchange and the Kondo effect but also complete failure of the R-DMFT, depending on the parameter regime considered. R-DMFT calculations are performed using the Lanczos method as impurity solver. With the real-space extension of the two-site DMFT, we also benchmark a simplified R-DMFT variant.

Improved effective vertices in the multiorbital two-particle self-consistent method from dynamical mean-field theory

Karim Zantout, Steffen Backes, Aleksandar Razpopov +2 more

In this paper, we present a multiorbital form of the two-particle self-consistent approach (TPSC) where the effective local and static irreducible interaction vertices are determined by means of the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). This approach replaces the approximate ansatz equations for the double-occupations $\ensuremath{\langle}{n}_{\ensuremath{\alpha},\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{}{n}_{\ensuremath{\beta},{\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}}^{}\ensuremath{\rangle}$ by sampling them directly for the same model using DMFT. Compared to the usual Hartree-Fock-like ansatz, this leads to more accurate local vertices in the weakly correlated regime and provides access to stronger correlated systems that were previously out of reach. This approach is extended by replacing the local component of the TPSC self-energy by the DMFT impurity self-energy, which results in an improved self-energy that incorporates strong local correlations but retains a nontrivial momentum dependence. We find that this combination of TPSC and DMFT provides a significant improvement over the multiorbital formulation of TPSC as it allows to determine the components of the spin vertex without artificial symmetry assumptions and opens the possibility to include the transversal particle-hole channel. The new approach is also able to remove unphysical divergences in the charge vertices in TPSC. We find a general trend that lower temperatures can be accessed in the calculation. Benchmarking single-particle quantities, such as the local spectral function with other many-body methods, we find significant improvement in the more strongly correlated regime.
