We present a pedagogical discussion of Similarity Renormalization Group (SRG) methods, in particular the In-Medium SRG (IMSRG) approach for solving the nuclear many-body problem. These methods use continuous unitary transformations to evolve the nuclear Hamiltonian to a desired shape. The IMSRG, in particular, is used to decouple the ground state from all excitations and solve the many-body Schrodinger equation. We discuss the IMSRG formalism as well as its numerical implementation, and use the method to study the pairing model and infinite neutron matter. We compare our results with those of Coupled cluster theory, Configuration-Interaction Monte Carlo, and the Self-Consistent Greens Function approach. The chapter concludes with an expanded overview of current research directions, and a look ahead at upcoming developments.

The application of renormalization group methods to microscopic nuclear many-body calculations is discussed. We present the solution of the renormalization group equations in the particle-hole channels for neutron matter and the application to S-wave
pairing. Furthermore, we point out that the inclusion of tensor and spin-orbit forces leads to spin non-conserving effective interactions in nuclear matter.
Efforts to describe nuclear structure and dynamics from first principles have advanced significantly in recent years. Exact methods for light nuclei are now able to include continuum degrees of freedom and treat structure and reactions on the same fo
oting, and multiple approximate, computationally efficient many-body methods have been developed that can be routinely applied for medium-mass nuclei. This has made it possible to confront modern nuclear interactions from Chiral Effective Field Theory, that are rooted in Quantum Chromodynamics with a wealth of experimental data. Here, we discuss one of these efficient new many-body methods, the In-Medium Similarity Renormalization Group (IMSRG), and its applications in modern nuclear structure theory. The IMSRG evolves the nuclear many-body Hamiltonian in second-quantized form through continuous unitary transformations that can be implemented with polynomial computational effort. Through suitably chosen generators, we drive the matrix representation of the Hamiltonian in configuration space to specific shapes, e.g., to implement a decoupling of low- and high-energy scales, or to extract energy eigenvalues for a given nucleus. We present selected results from Multireference IMSRG (MR-IMSRG) calculations of open-shell nuclei, as well as proof-of-principle applications for intrinsically deformed medium-mass nuclei. We discuss the successes and prospects of merging the (MR-)IMSRG with many-body methods ranging from Configuration Interaction to the Density Matrix Renormalization Group, with the goal of achieving an efficient simultaneous description of dynamic and static correlations in atomic nuclei.
Over the past decade the in-medium similarity renormalization group (IMSRG) approach has proven to be a powerful and versatile ab initio many-body method for studying medium-mass nuclei. So far, the IMSRG was limited to the approximation in which onl
y up to two-body operators are incorporated in the renormalization group flow, referred to as the IMSRG(2). In this work, we extend the IMSRG(2) approach to fully include three-body operators yielding the IMSRG(3) approximation. We use a perturbative scaling analysis to estimate the importance of individual terms in this approximation and introduce truncations that aim to approximate the IMSRG(3) at a lower computational cost. The IMSRG(3) is systematically benchmarked for different nuclear Hamiltonians for ${}^{4}text{He}$ and ${}^{16}text{O}$ in small model spaces. The IMSRG(3) systematically improves over the IMSRG(2) relative to exact results. Approximate IMSRG(3) truncations constructed based on computational cost are able to reproduce much of the systematic improvement offered by the full IMSRG(3). We also find that the approximate IMSRG(3) truncations behave consistently with expectations from our perturbative analysis, indicating that this strategy may also be used to systematically approximate the IMSRG(3).
In the past few years in-medium similarity renormalization group methods have been introduced and developed. In these methods the Hamiltonian is evolved using a unitary transformation in order to decouple a reference state from the rest of the Hilber
t space. The evolution by itself will generate, even if we start from a two-body interaction, many-body forces which are usually neglected. In this work we estimate the effect of these residual many-body forces by comparing results obtained with the Hybrid Multi-determinant method, which keeps the Hamiltonian within the two-body sector, with the corresponding ones obtained with the in-medium similarity renormalization group. Although percentage-wise the effect of neglecting these induced many-body forces is not too large, they can be appreciable depending on the nucleus, the shell model space and the harmonic oscillator frequency.
We have developed a novel ab initio Gamow in-medium similarity renormalization group (Gamow IMSRG) in the complex-energy Berggren framework. The advanced Gamow IMSRG is capable of describing the resonance and nonresonant continuum properties of weakl
y bound and unbound nuclear many-body systems. As test grounds, carbon and oxygen isotopes have been calculated with chiral two- and three-nucleon forces from the effective field theory. Resonant states observed in the neutron-dripline 24O are well reproduced. The halo structure of the known heaviest Borromean nucleus 22C is clearly seen by calculating the density distribution in which the continuum s channel plays a crucial role. Furthermore, we predict low-lying resonant excited states in 22C. The Gamow IMSRG provides tractable ab initio calculations of weakly bound and unbound open quantum systems.
