Memory truncated Kadanoff-Baym equations

Abstract: The Keldysh formalism for nonequilibrium Green's functions is a powerful theoretical framework for the description of the electronic structure, spectroscopy, and dynamics of strongly correlated systems. However, the underlying Kadanoff-Baym equations (KBE) for the two-time Keldysh Green's functions involve a memory kernel, which results in a high computational cost for long simulation times t max , with a cubic scaling of the computation time with t max . Truncation of the memory kernel can reduce the computat… Show more

“…Because this solution involves Dyson-type equations in which the self-energy plays the role of a memory kernel, a calculation which retains the memory back to the initial state is very costly in terms of memory [O(N 2 )] and computational complexity [O(N 3 ) in the NCA case]. To improve the scaling and propagate the solution to longer times a memory-truncation scheme has been proposed [29,30], in which the self-energy is stored only within a time window defined by a sufficiently large cutoff t cut = N cut h. This allows us to reduce the memory and computational costs to O(N 2 cut ) and O(N • N 2 cut ), respectively.…”

“…While the effective temperatures extracted from the charge and spin susceptibilities and single-particle Green's function are relatively well defined in frequency space, they differ substantially from each other and depend on the momentum, which shows that a unique nonequilibrium temperature of a strongly perturbed weakly interacting system cannot be defined within a few hopping times after a ramp. How exactly the different effective temperatures approach the thermal value in the weak-and intermediate-correlation regime is an interesting subject for further studies, which however requires the implementation of memory-truncation techniques [45] to access the long-time dynamics.…”

“…While dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) [37] is in principle ideally suited to study the Mott phase, previous simulations simply could not reach sufficiently long times to systematically examine the cold photo-doped states [24,35,36]. Here we use a systematic and convergent truncation of the Kadanoff-Baym equations within DMFT to reach about 50 times longer simulation times [38,39]. This allows us to study the properties of the photo-doped MI up to thousands of hopping times, corresponding to a picosecond timescale if the bandwidth is in the eV range.…”
