Abstract

This paper presents a renormalization approach to many-particle systems. By starting from a bare Hamiltonian with an unperturbed part and a perturbation ,we define an effective Hamiltonian which has a band-diagonal shape with respect to the eigenbasis of . This means that all transition matrix elements are suppressed which have energy differences larger than a given cutoff that is smaller than the cutoff of the original Hamiltonian. This property resembles a recent flow equation approach on the basis of continuous unitary transformations. For demonstration of the method we discuss an exact solvable model, as well as the Anderson-lattice model where the well-known quasiparticle behavior of heavy fermions is derived.
