Spectral function method for Hall conductivity of incoherent metals

Abstract

Using a model spectral function of the electron the Hall conductivity in the normal metallic state of the Pr_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_4 (PCCO) superconductor is calculated neglecting the current vertex-correction. The result is qualitatively consistent with the experiment. Consequently the reason becomes clear why the Fermi-liquid theory fails to explain the anomaly of the Hall conductivity. The inconsistency of the fluctuation-exchange approximation also becomes clear.
