The polaron optical conductivity is derived within the strong-coupling expansion, which is asymptotically exact in the strong-coupling limit. The polaron optical conductivity band is provided by the multiphonon optical transitions. The polaron optical conductivity spectra calculated within our analytic strong-coupling approach and the numerically accurate Diagrammatic Quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) data are in a good agreement with each other at large $alpha gtrapprox 9$.

We present accurate results for optical conductivity of the three dimensional Frohlich polaron in all coupling regimes. The systematic-error free diagrammatic quantum Monte Carlo method is employed where the Feynman graphs for the momentum-momentum c orrelation function in imaginary time are summed up. The real-frequency optical conductivity is obtained by the analytic continuation with stochastic optimization. We compare numerical data with available perturbative and non-perturbative approaches to the optical conductivity and show that the picture of sharp resonances due to relaxed excited states in the strong coupling regime is ``washed outby large broadening of these states. As a result, the spectrum contains only a single-maximum broad peak with peculiar shape and a shoulder.
Exact results for the density of states and the ac conductivity of the spinless Holstein model at finite carrier density are obtained combining Lanczos and kernel polynomial methods.
A Dirac-Fermi liquid (DFL)--a doped system with Dirac spectrum--is an important example of a non-Galilean-invariant Fermi liquid (FL). Real-life realizations of a DFL include, e.g., doped graphene, surface states of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators, and 3D Dirac/Weyl metals. We study the optical conductivity of a DFL arising from intraband electron-electron scattering. It is shown that the effective current relaxation rate behaves as $1/tau_{J}propto left(omega^2+4pi^2 T^2right)left(3omega^2+8pi^2 T^2right)$ for $max{omega, T}ll mu$, where $mu$ is the chemical potential, with an additional logarithmic factor in two dimensions. In graphene, the quartic form of $1/tau_{J}$ competes with a small FL-like term, $proptoomega^2+4pi^2 T^2$, due to trigonal warping of the Fermi surface. We also calculated the dynamical charge susceptibility, $chi_mathrm{c}({bf q},omega)$, outside the particle-hole continua and to one-loop order in the dynamically screened Coulomb interaction. For a 2D DFL, the imaginary part of $chi_mathrm{c}({bf q},omega)$ scales as $q^2omegaln|omega|$ and $q^4/omega^3$ for frequencies larger and smaller than the plasmon frequency at given $q$, respectively. The small-$q$ limit of $mathrm{Im} chi_mathrm{c}({bf q},omega)$ reproduces our result for the conductivity via the Einstein relation.

We utilize an exact variational numerical procedure to calculate the ground state properties of a polaron in the presence of a Rashba-like spin orbit interaction. Our results corroborate with previous work performed with the Momentum Average approxim ation and with weak coupling perturbation theory. We find that spin orbit coupling increases the effective mass in the regime with weak electron phonon coupling, and decreases the effective mass in the intermediate and strong electron phonon coupling regime. Analytical strong coupling perturbation theory results confirm our numerical results in the small polaron regime. A large amount of spin orbit coupling can lead to a significant lowering of the polaron effective mass.
We show that in crystals where light ions are symmetrically intercalated between heavy ions, the electron-phonon coupling for carriers located at the light sites cannot be described by a Holstein model. We introduce the double-well electron-phonon co upling model to describe the most interesting parameter regime in such systems, and study it in the single carrier limit using the momentum average approximation. For sufficiently strong coupling, a small polaron with a robust phonon cloud appears at low energies. While some of its properties are similar to those of a Holstein polaron, we highlight some crucial differences. These prove that the physics of the double-well electron-phonon coupling model cannot be reproduced with a linear Holstein model.
