The inclusion of the three-nucleon forces (3NFs) in textit{ab initio} many-body approaches is a formidable task, due to the computational load implied by the treatment of their matrix elements. For this reason, practical applications have mostly been limited to contributions where 3NFs enter as effective two-nucleon interactions. In this contribution, we derive the algebraic diagrammatic construction (ADC) working equations for a specific Feynman diagram of the self-energy that contains a fully irreducible three-nucleon force. This diagram is expected to be the most important among those previously neglected, because it connects dominant excited intermediate state configurations.

The present thesis aims at studying the properties of symmetric nuclear and pure neutron matter from a Greens functions point of view, including two-body and three-body chiral forces. An extended self-consistent Greens function formalism is defined to consistently incorporate three-body forces in the many-body calculations. The effect of three-nucleon interactions is included via the construction of a dressed two-body density dependent force. This is obtained performing an average of the leading order three-body terms in the chiral effective field theory expansion. The dressed force corresponds to the use of an in-medium propagator in the average which takes into account the correlations characterizing the system at each stage of the many-body calculation. The total energy of the system is obtained by means of a modified Galitskii-Migdal-Koltun sumrule to correctly account for the effect of three-body forces. Microscopic as well as macroscopic properties of symmetric nuclear and pure neutron matter are analyzed in detailed.
The consequences of the attractive, short-range nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction on the wave functions of the Elliott SU(3) and the proxy-SU(3) symmetry are discussed. The NN interaction favors the most symmetric spatial SU(3) irreducible representation, which corresponds to the maximal spatial overlap among the fermions. The percentage of the symmetric components out of the total in an SU(3) wave function is introduced, through which it is found, that no SU(3) irrep is more symmetric than the highest weight irrep for a certain number of valence particles in a three dimensional, isotropic, harmonic oscillator shell. The consideration of the highest weight irreps in nuclei and in alkali metal clusters, leads to the prediction of a prolate to oblate shape transition beyond the mid-shell region.
The consequences of the attractive, short-range nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction on the wave functions of nuclear models bearing the SU(3) symmetry are reviewed. The NN interaction favors the most symmetric spatial SU(3) irreducible representation (irrep), which corresponds to the maximal spatial overlap among the fermions. The consideration of the highest weight (hw) irreps in nuclei and in alkali metal clusters, leads to the prediction of a prolate to oblate shape transition beyond the mid-shell region. Subsequently, the consequences of the use of the hw irreps on the binding energies and two-neutron separation energies in the rare earth region are discussed within the proxy-SU(3) scheme, by considering a very simple Hamiltonian, containing only the three dimensional (3D) isotropic harmonic oscillator (HO) term and the quadrupole-quadrupole interaction. This Hamiltonian conserves the SU(3) symmetry and treats the nucleus as a rigid rotator.
Starting from general expressions of well-chosen symmetric nuclear matter quantities derived for both zero- and finite-range effective theories, we derive the contributions to the effective mass. We first show that, independently of the range, the two-body contribution is enough to describe correctly the saturation mechanism but gives an effective mass value around $m^*/m simeq 0.4$. Then, we show that the full interaction (by instance, an effective two-body density-dependent term on top of the pure two-body term) is needed to reach the accepted value $m^*/m simeq 0.7-0.8$.
New experimental data on 2+ energies of 136,138Sn confirms the trend of lower 2+ excitation energies of even-even tin isotopes with N > 82 compared to those with N< 82. However, none of the theoretical predictions using both realistic and empirical interactions can reproduce experimental data on excitation energies as well as the transition probabilities (B(E2; 6+ -> 4+)) of these nuclei, simultaneously, apart from one whose matrix elements have been changed empirically to produce mixed seniority states by weakening pairing. We have shown that the experimental result also shows good agreement with the theory in which three body forces have been included in a realistic interaction. The new theoretical results on transition probabilities have been discussed to identify the experimental quantities which will clearly distinguish between different views.
