Krylov implementation of the hybridization expansion impurity solver and application to 5-orbital models

arXiv:0908.0681 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.80.235117

Abstract

We present an implementation of the hybridization expansion impurity solver which employs sparse matrix exact-diagonalization techniques to compute the time evolution of the local Hamiltonian. This method avoids computationally expensive matrix-matrix multiplications and becomes advantageous over the conventional implementation for models with 5 or more orbitals. In particular, this method will allow the systematic investigation of 7-orbital systems (lanthanide and actinide compounds) within single-site dynamical mean field theory. We illustrate the power and usefulness of our approach with dynamical mean field results for a 5-orbital model which captures some aspects of the physics of the iron based superconductors.
