A Functional Approach for the Spin Chain — •Stephan Filor and Thomas Pruschke — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Göttingen

We set up a new approach to the physics of spin systems which uses a resolvent method originally proposed by Keiter and Kuramoto. In analogy to the Baym-Kadanoff formalism the latter introduced the partition sum of a system as a functional of the resolvent of the Hamiltonian and its so called generalized self-energy. This functional is the starting point for a variational cluster method which is based on Potthoffs self-energy functional approach. In a first step we apply our ansatz to a Heisenberg spin chain.
