Interacting Case

We require the lowest single particle Ep(N) and hole Eh(N) excitations to satisfy this equation for a chain of length N

∼ο

Quasiparticle Interactions

We look at the difference between the lowest two-particle excitations Epp(N) and two single

particle excitations 2 Ep(N) . This interaction Upp(N) will depend on the excitations and chain

length N.

We can define a similar interaction Uhh(N) between holes Uph(N) and between a particle and hole

If they are all have the same value for large N, independent of N then we can identify this value with U

We calculate the self-energy in the Keldysh formalism to second order in the renormalised interaction which is known to be exact to second order in Vds for H=0. See poster J. Bauer with splitting also for finite voltage Vds with h=0

There is a critical value h=hc at which A2(h) changes sign signally the

Summary and Outlook

 _{We can do a perturbation theory in terms of renormalised parameter for a variety of impurity models,} which is asymptotically exact at low energies (including 2CKM).

 We can calculate the renormalised parameters from NRG calculations very accurately.

 We can generalise the approach to lattice models and calculate the renormalised parameters within DMFT, including an arbitrary magnetic field, and for broken symmetry states.

 _{We can use the Keldysh formalism to look at steady state non-equilibrium for small finite bias voltages.}

 _{Can we extend the non-equilibrium calculations accurately into the larger bias voltage regime?}

 _{Can we extend the results for the self energy and response functions to higher temperatures?}

 Other methods of deducing the renormalised parameters independent of NRG?
