A Perturbation Expansion Method to Study Highly Correlated Spins

Abstract

This paper proposes a new numerical algorithm to study dynamical spin dependent properties of local highly correlated structures. The method consists in diagonalizing a finite cluster containing the many-body terms of the Hamil- tonian and embedding it into the rest of the system, the Em- bedding Cluster Approximation (ECA), combined with Wil- son’s ideas of logarithmic discretization of the representa- tion of the Hamiltonian, the Logarithm Discretization Em- bedded Cluster Approximation (LDECA). The physics as- sociated to a dot and a side-coupled double dot connected to leads are discussed in detail.
