Breakdown of the many-body perturbation theory: Vertex divergences in the Anderson Impurity Model — •Patrick Chalupa, Patrik Gunacker, Thomas Schäfer, Karsten Held, and Alessandro Toschi — Technische Universität Wien, Karlsplatz 13, 1040 Wien

The recently discovered [1,2] occurrence of multiple divergences in the irreducible vertex functions of strongly correlated electron models, poses serious problems to the state-of-the-art many-body theory. Dynamical mean-field theory calculations for the Hubbard model have shown several lines of divergences, surrounding the Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transition, a clear hint of a highly non-perturbative origin. At high temperatures/large U, where the Hubbard model approaches the atomic limit, the divergences could be ascribed to a unique underlying energy scale ν^*. This simple picture is however not applicable in the most interesting parameter regime of low temperatures and intermediate U.

For this reason we analysed a simpler model where a similar physics could be realized: the Anderson impurity model. This provides a more feasible way to treat quasiparticle physics in the parameter regime of interest. Our CT-HYB calculations, performed with w2dynamics [3] at the two particle level, extending to even lower temperatures than before, provide novel insight into this topic.
