We present a compressive sensing approach for the long standing problem of Matsubara summation in many-body perturbation theory. By constructing low-dimensional, almost isometric subspaces of the Hilbert space we obtain optimum imaginary time and frequency grids that allow for extreme data compression of fermionic and bosonic functions in a broad temperature regime. The method is applied to the random phase and self-consistent $GW$ approximation of the grand potential. Integration and transformation errors are investigated for Si and SrVO$_3$.

The bandstructure of gold is calculated using many-body perturbation theory (MBPT). Different approximations within the GW approach are considered. Standard single shot G0W0 corrections shift the unoccupied bands up by ~0.2 eV and the first sp-like occupied band down by ~0.4 eV, while leaving unchanged the 5d occupied bands. Beyond G0W0, quasiparticle self-consistency on the wavefunctions lowers the occupied 5d bands by 0.35 eV. Globally, many-body effects achieve an opening of the interband gap (5d-6sp gap) of 0.35 to 0.75 eV approaching the experimental results. Finally, the quasiparticle bandstructure is compared to the one obtained by the widely used HSE (Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof) hybrid functional.
We develop a numerically exact scheme for resumming certain classes of Feynman diagrams in the self-consistent perturbation expansion for the electron and magnon self-energies in the nonequilibrium Green function formalism applied to a coupled electron-magnon (mbox{e-m}) system which is driven out of equilibrium by the applied finite bias voltage. Our scheme operates with the electronic and magnonic GFs and the corresponding self-energies viewed as matrices in the Keldysh space, rather than conventionally extracting their retarded and lesser components. This is employed to understand the effect of inelastic mbox{e-m} scattering on charge and spin current vs. bias voltage $V_b$ in F/I/F magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), which are modeled on a one-dimensional (1D) tight-binding lattice for the electronic subsystem and 1D Heisenberg model for the magnonic subsystem. For this purpose, we evaluate Fock diagram for the electronic self-energy and the electron-hole polarization bubble diagram for the magnonic self-energy. The respective electronic and magnonic GF lines within these diagrams are the fully interacting ones, thereby requiring to solve the ensuing coupled system of nonlinear integral equations self-consistently. Despite using the 1D model and treating mbox{e-m} interaction in many-body fashion only within a small active region consisting of few lattice sites around the F/I interface, our analysis captures essential features of the so-called zero-bias anomaly observed in both MgO- and AlO$_x$-based realistic 3D MTJs where the second derivative $d^2 I/dV_b^2$ (i.e., inelastic electron tunneling spectrum) of charge current exhibits sharp peaks of opposite sign on either side of the zero bias voltage.
We describe the second version (v2.0.0) of the code ADG that automatically (1) generates all valid off-diagonal Bogoliubov many-body perturbation theory diagrams at play in particle-number projected Bogoliubov many-body perturbation theory (PNP-BMBPT) and (2) evaluates their algebraic expression to be implemented for numerical applications. This is achieved at any perturbative order $p$ for a Hamiltonian containing both two-body (four-legs) and three-body (six-legs) interactions (vertices). All valid off-diagonal BMBPT diagrams of order $p$ are systematically generated from the set of diagonal, i.e., unprojected, BMBPT diagrams. The production of the latter were described at length in https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2018.11.023 dealing with the first version of ADG. The automated evaluation of off-diagonal BMBPT diagrams relies both on the application of algebraic Feynmans rules and on the identification of a powerful diagrammatic rule providing the result of the remaining $p$-tuple time integral. The new diagrammatic rule generalizes the one already identified in https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2018.11.023 to evaluate diagonal BMBPT diagrams independently of their perturbative order and topology. The code ADG is written in Python3 and uses the graph manipulation package NetworkX. The code is kept flexible enough to be further expanded throughout the years to tackle the diagrammatics at play in various many-body formalisms that already exist or are yet to be formulated.
We investigate a many-body localization transition based on a Boltzmann transport theory. Introducing weak localization corrections into a Boltzmann equation, Hershfield and Ambegaokar re-derived the Wolfle-Vollhardt self-consistent equation for the diffusion coefficient [Phys. Rev. B {bf 34}, 2147 (1986)]. We generalize this Boltzmann equation framework, introducing electron-electron interactions into the Hershfield-Ambegaokar Boltzmann transport theory based on the study of Zala-Narozhny-Aleiner [Phys. Rev. B {bf 64}, 214204 (2001)]. Here, not only Altshuler-Aronov corrections but also dephasing effects are taken into account. As a result, we obtain a self-consistent equation for the diffusion coefficient in terms of the disorder strength and temperature, which extends the Wolfle-Vollhardt self-consistent equation in the presence of electron correlations. Solving our self-consistent equation numerically, we find a many-body localization insulator-metal transition, where a metallic phase appears from dephasing effects dominantly instead of renormalization effects at high temperatures. Although this mechanism is consistent with that of recent seminal papers [Ann. Phys. (N. Y). {bf 321}, 1126 (2006); Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 95}, 206603 (2005)], we find that our three-dimensional metal-insulator transition belongs to the first order transition, which differs from the Anderson metal-insulator transition described by the Wolfle-Vollhardt self-consistent theory. We speculate that a bimodal distribution function for the diffusion coefficient is responsible for this first order phase transition.
Kagome-net, appearing in areas of fundamental physics, materials, photonic and cold-atom systems, hosts frustrated fermionic and bosonic excitations. However, it is extremely rare to find a system to study both fermionic and bosonic modes to gain insights into their many-body interplay. Here we use state-of-the-art scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to discover unusual electronic coupling to flat-band phonons in a layered kagome paramagnet. Our results reveal the kagome structure with unprecedented atomic resolution and observe the striking bosonic mode interacting with dispersive kagome electrons near the Fermi surface. At this mode energy, the fermionic quasi-particle dispersion exhibits a pronounced renormalization, signaling a giant coupling to bosons. Through a combination of self-energy analysis, first-principles calculation, and a lattice vibration model, we present evidence that this mode arises from the geometrically frustrated phonon flat-band, which is the lattice analog of kagome electron flat-band. Our findings provide the first example of kagome bosonic mode (flat-band phonon) in electronic excitations and its strong interaction with fermionic degrees of freedom in kagome-net materials.
