    Going beyond the Cumulant Approximation:Power Series Correction to the Single-Particle Green's Function in the Holstein System

    No full text
    In the context of a single-electron two orbital Holstein system coupled to dispersionless bosons, we develop a general method to correct the single-particle Green's function using a power series correction (PSC) scheme. We outline the derivations of various flavors of cumulant approximation through the PSC scheme explaining the assumptions and approximations behind them. Finally, we compare the PSC spectral function with cumulant and exact diagonalized spectral functions and elucidate three regimes of this problem - two where the cumulant explains and one where the cumulant fails. We find that the exact and the PSC spectral functions match within spectral broadening across all three regimes.</p

    We report on detailed structural, electronic, and magnetic studies of GdMn1-xCrxO3 for Cr doping levels; x = 0 &lt;= x &lt;= 1. X-ray diffraction studies suggest that GdMn0.5Cr0.5O3 has a monoclinic P2(1)/b structure with alternate arrangements of Mn and Cr atoms along the [001] direction. In the solid solutions, the Jahn-Teller distortion associated with Mn3+ ions gives rise to major changes in the be-plane sublattice and also an effective orbital ordering in the ab plane, which persist up to compositions x similar to 0.35. These distinct features in the lattice and orbital degrees of freedom are also correlated with be-plane anisotropy of the local Gd environment. A gradual evolution of electronic states with doping is also clearly seen in O K-edge x-ray absorption spectra. Evidence of magnetization reversal in field-cooled-cooling mode for x &gt;= 0.35 coinciding with the Jahn-Teller crossover suggests a close correlation between magnetic interaction and structural distortion. These observations indicate a strong entanglement between lattice, spin, electronic, and orbital degrees of freedom. The nonmonotonic variation of remnant magnetization can be explained by doping-induced modification of magnetic interactions. Density-functional-theory calculations are consistent with layer-by-layer-type arrangements of Cr ions and Mn ions with ferromagnetic (antiferomagnetic) coupling between Mn (Cr) ions for intermediate compounds (x = 0.5). For x = 0.25 compositions, we found alternate layers of Mn and mixed Mn-Cr atoms stacked along the c axis with intralayer ferromagnetic coupling and interlayer antiferromagnetic coupling. For x = 0.75 compositions, there exists strong antiferomagnetic coupling between half-filled t(2g) orbitals of in-plane Cr ions along with a feromagnetic Mn-Cr coupling
