Finite-temperature quantum field theories are formulated in terms of Greens functions and self-energies on the Matsubara axis. In multi-orbital systems, these quantities are related to positive semidefinite matrix-valued functions of the Caratheodory and Schur class. Analysis, interpretation and evaluation of derived quantities such as real-frequency response functions requires analytic continuation of the off-diagonal elements to the real axis. We derive the criteria under which such functions exist for given Matsubara data and present an interpolation algorithm that intrinsically respects their mathematical properties. For small systems with precise Matsubara data, we find that the continuation exactly recovers all off-diagonal and diagonal elements. In real-materials systems, we show that the precision of the continuation is sufficient for the analytic continuation to commute with the Dyson equation, and we show that the commonly used truncation of off-diagonal self-energy elements leads to considerable approximation artifacts. Our method paves the way for the systematic evaluation of Matsubara data with equations of many-body theory on the real-frequency axis.
In this article we perform a critical assessment of different known methods for the analytical continuation of bosonic functions, namely the maximum entropy method, the non-negative least-square method, the non-negative Tikhonov method, the Pade appr
Bayesian parametric analytic continuation (BPAC) is proposed for the analytic continuation of noisy imaginary-time Greens function data as, e.g., obtained by continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo simulations (CTQMC). Within BPAC, the spectral function
In this paper we consider functions in the Hardy space $mathbf{H}_2^{ptimes q}$ defined in the unit disc of matrix-valued. We show that it is possible, as in the scalar case, to decompose those functions as linear combinations of suitably modified ma
We develop an energy density matrix that parallels the one-body reduced density matrix (1RDM) for many-body quantum systems. Just as the density matrix gives access to the number density and occupation numbers, the energy density matrix yields the en
The density matrix formalism and the equation of motion approach are two semi-analytical methods that can be used to compute the non-equilibrium dynamics of correlated systems. While for a bilinear Hamiltonian both formalisms yield the exact result,
