Effective interactions for self-energy. I. Theory

Abstract

A systematic way of deriving effective interactions for self-energy calculations in Fermi-liquid systems is presented. The self-energy expression contains effects of density and spin fluctuations and also multiple scattering between particles. Results for arbitrarily polarized one-component Fermi-liquid systems and unpolarized two-component systems are explicitly given.

Effect of singular interaction terms on two-dimensional Fermi liquids

Philip C. E. Stamp

The structure of perturbation theory for an interacting two-dimensional Fermi system is analyzed, in the case where singular terms exist in the quasiparticle interactions. These give a hierarchy of singular terms in the one-particle self-energy. The dominant terms are self-consistently summed, to give a quasiparticle pole vanishing as Z(\ensuremath{\omega})\ensuremath{\sim}(\ensuremath{\omega}/${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$${)}_{0}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\rho}},\mathrm{\ensuremath{\delta}}2}$/${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Elzxh}}}^{2}$N(0)${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{0}$ near the Fermi energy (signaling a breakdown of Fermi-liquid theory), and a form for the scattering amplitude which is consistent with the assumed form for the quasiparticle interaction.

Perturbation Theory for an Infinite Medium of Fermions. III. Derivation of the Landau Theory of Fermi Liquids

Abraham Klein

The methods employed in the previous papers of this series for the ground-state energy of a normal Fermion system are extended to finite temperatures. The basic assumption is that the density matrix of the actual system in thermodynamic equilibrium can be derived by adiabatic transformation from the density matrix of system of noninteracting particles at the same temperature, volume, and chemical potential. However, the spectrum of the noninteracting system must be dependent on the intensive parameters. The self-consistency of the scheme is exhibited by demonstrating that the effective potential characterizing this system can be related to the self-energy operator of the actual system. Two equivalent versions of the theory are derived. In one of these the basic equations are precisely those of the Landau theory of Fermi liquids with the difference, however, that all quantities are given explicitly from first principles.

Coupling of Density and Spin Fluctuations to Quasiparticles in a Fermi Liquid

D J Amit, Joseph W. Kane, H. Wagner

The general interaction between quasiparticles and particle-hole excitations in a neutral Fermi system at $T=0$ is investigated. Density and spin-density fluctuations and collective modes are treated on an equal basis. Use is made of Ward identities to relate the vertex function $\ensuremath{\Gamma}$ to the quasiparticle self-energy $\ensuremath{\Sigma}$, and logarithmic corrections to the self-energy are obtained. The coefficients of the logarithmic terms are calculated analytically in terms of known Landau parameters.

Quasiparticle pseudo-Hamiltonian of an infinitesimally polarized Fermi liquid

Sudhakar Yarlagadda, Gabriele F. Giuliani

We present the microscopic derivation of a quasiparticle pseudo-Hamiltonian for an infinitesimally polarized electron liquid. The Hamiltonian is expressed in terms of suitably defined quasiparticle operators. Our approach is based on a canonical transformation which allows one to replace the bare Coulombic coupling between the interacting electrons with an effective interaction between quasiparticles in which collective charge and spin fluctuations are explicitly accounted for. The relevant matrix elements of the charge and spin-density operators enter our theory via linear-response functions: the charge response, the longitudinal and transverse spin responses, and the mixed charge-spin response. These susceptibilities are in turn expressed in terms of the appropriate many-body local fields. As a consequence our method can be seen as an attempt to satisfactorily include in a self-consistent manner the effects of the vertex corrections associated with charge and spin-fluctuations of the electron liquid. As a result useful expressions for the quasiparticle energy and the effective interaction between two quasiparticles are determined. These can, in turn, be employed in a microscopic determination of the parameters of the Landau theory of the Fermi liquid. The generalization of our results to a multicomponent system is also discussed.

Quasiparticle self-energy and many-body effective mass enhancement in a two-dimensional electron liquid

Reza Asgari, B. Davoudi, Marco Polini +3 more

Motivated by a number of recent experimental studies we have revisited the problem of the microscopic calculation of the quasiparticle self-energy and many-body effective mass enhancement in an unpolarized two-dimensional electron liquid. Our systematic study is based on the many-body local field theory and takes advantage of the results of the most recent diffusion Monte Carlo calculations of the static charge and spin response of the electron liquid. We report extensive calculations of both the real and imaginary parts of the quasiparticle self-energy. We also present results for the many-body effective mass enhancement and the renormalization constant over a broad range of electron densities. In this respect we critically examine the relative merits of the on-shell approximation, commonly used in weak coupling situations versus the actual self-consistent solution of the Dyson equation. We show that already for ${r}_{s}\ensuremath{\simeq}3$ and higher, a solution of the Dyson equation proves necessary in order to obtain a well-behaved effective mass. Finally we find confirmation that the inclusion of both charge- and spin-density fluctuations beyond the random phase approximation is indeed crucial to get reasonable agreement with recent measurements.
