Dynamical mean field theory extension to the nonequilibrium two-particle self-consistent approach

Abstract

Nonlocal correlations play an essential role in correlated electron systems, especially in the vicinity of phase transitions and crossovers, where two-particle correlation functions display a distinct momentum dependence. In nonequilibrium settings, the effect of nonlocal correlations on dynamical phase transitions, prethermalization phenomena, and trapping in metastable states is not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) extension to the nonequilibrium two-particle self-consistent (TPSC) approach, which allows to perform nonequilibrium simulations capturing short- and long-ranged nonlocal correlations in the weak-, intermediate-, and strong-correlation regimes. The method self-consistently computes local spin and charge vertices, from which a momentum-dependent self-energy is constructed. Replacing the local part of the self-energy by the DMFT result within this self-consistent scheme provides an improved description of local correlation effects. We explain the details of the formalism and the implementation, and demonstrate the versatility of DMFT+TPSC with interaction quenches and dimensional crossovers in the Hubbard model.

    Flow graph showing the connections between the two levels of TPSC, namely, the first- (blue boxes) and second-level (green boxes) approximations. The red line shows that second-level irreducible vertices could, in principle, be obtained from the second-level self-energy Σ(1). The α renormalization of the vertices introduced via Eq. (72) modifies the irreducible vertices such that the two levels of the approximation become consistent.
