Cellular Dynamical Mean Field Approach to Strongly Correlated Systems

Abstract

We propose a cellular version of dynamical-mean field theory which gives a natural generalization of its original single-site construction and is formulated in different sets of variables. We show how non-orthogonality of the tight-binding basis sets enters the problem and prove that the resulting equations lead to manifestly causal self energies.Comment: RevTex, 4 pages, 1 embedded figur
