Nonequilibrium Green's function theory and related methods are widely used to describe transport phenomena in many-body systems, but they often require a costly inversion of a large matrix. We show here that the shift-invert Lanczos method can dramatically reduce the computational effort. We apply the method to two test problems, namely a simple model Hamiltonian and to a more realistic Hamiltonian for nuclear fission. For a Hamiltonian of dimension 66 103 we find that the computation time is reduced by a factor of 33 compared to the direct calculation of the Green's function.

In dealing with the one-dimensional lattice model, we replace the traditionally needed Born-Von-Karmann periodic boundary condition with two additional Hamiltonian terms to make up a ring-lattice. In so doing, a unitary phase operator and the corresponding Hermite phase angle operator can be introduced as those in quantum optics theory. The new Hamiltonian is invariant under the phase shift transformation. Moreover, the lattice Green's function in the p th nearest interaction approximation can also be easily derived from the new Hamiltonian, which becomes the well-known lattice Green's function when the ring is infinite.
