Motivated by the intriguing physics of quasi-2d fermionic systems, such as high-temperature superconducting oxides, layered transition metal chalcogenides or surface or interface systems, the development of many-body computational methods geared at including both local and non-local electronic correlations has become a rapidly evolving field. It has been realized, however, that the success of such methods can be hampered by the emergence of noncausal features in the effective or observable quantities involved. Here, we present a new approach of extending local many-body techniques such as dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) to nonlocal correlations, which preserves causality and has a physically intuitive interpretation. Our strategy has implications for the general class of DMFT-inspired many-body methods, and can be adapted to cluster, dual boson or dual fermion techniques with minimal effort.

We develop the perturbation theory of the fidelity susceptibility in biorthogonal bases for arbitrary interacting non-Hermitian many-body systems with real eigenvalues. The quantum criticality in the non-Hermitian transverse field Ising chain is investigated by the second derivative of ground-state energy and the ground-state fidelity susceptibility. We show that the system undergoes a second-order phase transition with the Ising universal class by numerically computing the critical points and the critical exponents from the finite-size scaling theory. Interestingly, our results indicate that the biorthogonal quantum phase transitions are described by the biorthogonal fidelity susceptibility instead of the conventional fidelity susceptibility.
We apply the quasi-particle self-consistent GW (QSGW) approximation to some of the iron pnictide and chalcogenide superconductors. We compute Fermi surfaces and density of states, and find excellent agreement with experiment, substantially improving over standard band-structure methods. Analyzing the QSGW self-energy we discuss non-local and dynamic contributions to effective masses. We present evidence that the two contributions are mostly separable, since the quasi-particle weight is found to be essentially independent of momentum. The main effect of non locality is captured by the static but non-local QSGW effective potential. Moreover, these non-local self-energy corrections, absent in e.g. dynamical mean field theory (DMFT), can be relatively large. We show, on the other hand, that QSGW only partially accounts for dynamic renormalizations at low energies. These findings suggest that QSGW combined with DMFT will capture most of the many-body physics in the iron pnictides and chalcogenides.
Using a separable many-body variational wavefunction, we formulate a self-consistent effective Hamiltonian theory for fermionic many-body system. The theory is applied to the two-dimensional Hubbard model as an example to demonstrate its capability and computational effectiveness. Most remarkably for the Hubbard model in 2-d, a highly unconventional quadruple-fermion non-Cooper-pair order parameter is discovered.
We give a brief summary of the current status of the electron many-body problem in graphene. We claim that graphene has intrinsic dielectric properties which should dress the interactions among the quasiparticles, and may explain why the observation of electron-electron renormalization effects has been so elusive in the recent experiments. We argue that the strength of Coulomb interactions in graphene may be characterized by an effective fine structure constant given by $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k},omega)equiv2.2/epsilon(mathbf{k},omega)$, where $epsilon(mathbf{k},omega)$ is the dynamical dielectric function. At long wavelengths, $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k},omega)$ appears to have its smallest value in the static regime, where $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k}to0,0)approx1/7$ according to recent inelastic x-ray measurements, and the largest value in the optical limit, where $alpha^{star}(0,omega)approx2.6$. We conclude that the strength of Coulomb interactions in graphene is not universal, but depends highly on the scale of the phenomenon of interest. We propose a prescription in order to reconcile different experiments.
We study the impact of the inter-level energy constraints imposed by Haldane Exclusion Statistics on relaxation processes in 1-dimensional systems coupled to a bosonic bath. By formulating a second-quantized description of the relevant Fock space, we identify certain universal features of this relaxation dynamics, and show that it is generically slower than that of spinless fermions. Our study focuses on the Calogero-Sutherland model, which realizes Haldane Exclusion statistics exactly in one dimension; however our results apply to any system that has the associated pattern of inter-level occupancy constraints in Fock space.
