Effective models for Anderson impurity and Kondo problems from continuous unitary transformations

Abstract: The method of continuous unitary transformations (CUTs) is applied to the Anderson impurity and the Kondo model aiming at the systematic derivation of convergent effective models. If CUTs are applied in a conventional way, diverging differential equations occur. Similar to poor man's scaling the energy scale, below which the couplings diverge, corresponds to the Kondo temperature TK . We present a way to apply CUTs to the Kondo and to the Anderson impurity model so that no divergences occur but a converged eff… Show more

“…In the solid-state physics literature, the approach is also known as continuous unitary transformation (CUT) theory, see [65][66][67][68][69]. When we discuss our decoupling strategies for the nuclear many-body problem, it will become evident that the IMSRG is related to CC [58,70], canonical transformation theory (CT) [71][72][73], and the Irreducible (or Anti-Hermitian) Contracted Schrödinger Equation (ICSE) approach [74][75][76][77][78][79][80], and there is even some overlap with purely variational methods (see section 4.3).…”

“…One of such approaches was the so called poor man's scaling, pioneered by Anderson [3]. Models, similar to the one mentioned above, describe magnetic ions in a crystalline electric field [4,5], tunnelling centres [6] and system of quantum dots [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. It is known that the anisotropy can substantially change the physics of the model in comparison with the isotropic case [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

“…The single-impurity Kondo and Anderson models and their generalizations to include orbital degeneracy serve as testing grounds for methods that are aimed at the corresponding lattice problems. The Bethe ansatz solutions to the impurity models in turn provide benchmarks [1][2][3][4][5] for ground state and finite-temperature thermodynamic quantities. The numerical solution to the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz (TBA) equations is able to render the full crossover between local-moment behavior at high temperatures and Fermi-liquid behavior at low temperatures with relatively little numerical effort.…”
