Pseudogap opening in the two-dimensional Hubbard model: A functional renormalization group analysis

Using the recently introduced multiloop extension of the functional renormalization group, we compute the frequency- and momentum-dependent self-energy of the two-dimensional Hubbard model at half filling and weak coupling. We show that, in the truncated-unity approach for the vertex, it is essential to adopt the Schwinger-Dyson form of the self-energy flow equation in order to capture the pseudogap opening. We provide an analytic understanding of the key role played by the flow scheme in correctly accounting for the impact of the antiferromagnetic fluctuations. For the resulting pseudogap, we present a detailed numerical analysis of its evolution with temperature, interaction strength, and loop order.Comment: 15 pages, 15 figures, version as publishe

Single boson exchange representation of the functional renormalization group for strongly interacting many-electron systems

We present a reformulation of the functional renormalization group (fRG) for many-electron systems, which relies on the recently introduced single boson exchange (SBE) representation of the parquet equations [Phys. Rev. B 100, 155149 (2019)]. The latter exploits a diagrammatic decomposition, which classifies the contributions to the full scattering amplitude in terms of their reducibility with respect to cutting one interaction line, naturally distinguishing the processes mediated by the exchange of a single boson in the different channels. We apply this idea to the fRG by splitting the one-loop fRG flow equations for the vertex function into SBE contributions and a residual four-point fermionic vertex. Similarly as in the case of parquet solvers, recasting the fRG algorithm in the SBE representation offers both computational and interpretative advantages: the SBE decomposition not only significantly reduces the numerical effort of treating the high-frequency asymptotics of the flowing vertices, but it also allows for a clear physical identification of the collective degrees of freedom at play. We illustrate the advantages of an SBE formulation of fRG-based schemes, by computing through the merger of dynamical mean-field theory and fRG the susceptibilities and the Yukawa couplings of the two-dimensional Hubbard model from weak to strong coupling, for which we also present an intuitive physical explanation of the results. The SBE formulation of the one-loop flow equations paves a promising route for future multiboson and multiloop extensions of fRG-based algorithms.Comment: 22 Pages, 18 figure

Olive Oil as a Transport Medium for Bioactive Molecules of Plants? : An In Situ Study

(1) Caries and erosions still remain a challenge for preventive dentistry. Certain plant extracts have shown beneficial effects in preventive dentistry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial, anti-adherent and erosion-protective properties of ellagic acid (EA) as a polyphenolic agent. The combination with olive oil was investigated additionally to verify a possible improved bioactive effect of EA. (2) An in situ study was carried out with six subjects. Individual splints were prepared with bovine enamel specimens. The splints were worn for 1 min (pellicle formation time). Thereafter, 10 min rinses were performed with EA in water/in oil. Bacterial adherence was evaluated by fluorescence microscopy (DAPI, ConA, BacLight) after an 8 h oral exposition time. Additionally, the splints were worn for 30 min to quantify demineralization processes. The ultrastructure of the pellicle was investigated after an oral exposure time of 2 h under a transmission electron microscope. Statistical analysis was performed by Kruskal–Wallis tests, Mann–Whitney U tests and Bonferroni– Holm correction. (3) Rinsing with EA led to a significant reduction of adherent vital and dead bacteria. The combination with olive oil did not improve these outcomes. The assessment of glucan structures after rinsing with EA in water showed significant effects. Significant differences were observed for both rinses in calcium release at pH 3.0. After rinsing with EA in oil, significantly less calcium was released compared to rinsing with EA in water (pH = 3.0). (4) Olive oil is not suitable as a transport medium for lipophilic polyphenols. EA has anti-adherent and antibacterial properties in situ. EA also shows erosion-protective effects, which can be enhanced in combination with olive oil depending on the pH value. Ellagic acid has a neutral pH and could be an opportunity in the treatment of specific patient groups (xerostomia or mucositis)

The great tit HapMap project: a continental‐scale analysis of genomic variation in a songbird

A major aim of evolutionary biology is to understand why patterns of genomic diversity vary within taxa and space. Large-scale genomic studies of widespread species are useful for studying how environment and demography shape patterns of genomic divergence. Here, we describe one of the most geographically comprehensive surveys of genomic variation in a wild vertebrate to date; the great tit (Parus major) HapMap project. We screened ca 500,000 SNP markers across 647 individuals from 29 populations, spanning ~30 degrees of latitude and 40 degrees of longitude – almost the entire geographical range of the European subspecies. Genome-wide variation was consistent with a recent colonisation across Europe from a South-East European refugium, with bottlenecks and reduced genetic diversity in island populations. Differentiation across the genome was highly heterogeneous, with clear ‘islands of differentiation’, even among populations with very low levels of genome-wide differentiation. Low local recombination rates were a strong predictor of high local genomic differentiation (FST), especially in island and peripheral mainland populations, suggesting that the interplay between genetic drift and recombination causes highly heterogeneous differentiation landscapes. We also detected genomic outlier regions that were confined to one or more peripheral great tit populations, probably as a result of recent directional selection at the species' range edges. Haplotype-based measures of selection were related to recombination rate, albeit less strongly, and highlighted population-specific sweeps that likely resulted from positive selection. Our study highlights how comprehensive screens of genomic variation in wild organisms can provide unique insights into spatio-temporal evolutionary dynamics

Microhabitat partitioning of <em>Apodemus flavicollis</em> and <em>Myodes glareolus</em> in the sub-montane Alps: a preliminary assessment

Interspecific competition can cause partitioning in habitat use by sympatric species. This study gives a preliminary contribution to the understanding of microhabitat partitioning of <em>Apodemus flavicollis</em> and <em>Myodes glareolus</em> in sub-montane habitats. A total<br />of 1000 trap nights in the subalpine forest in the Austrian Ötscher mountain showed that high- and low-tree cover, high-shrub cover, plot location in or out of the forest, and distance from the forest edge were the variables which discriminated the sites of capture of the two species. <em>A. flavicollis</em> seemed to be more associated with the forest edge than <em>M. glareolus</em>, which, in contrast, preferred areas well within the forest with high tree and shrub cover. Our results suggest that the two species show some level of partitioning according to microhabitat structure
