Abstract

We present a unified perspective on Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT), Density-Matrix Embedding Theory (DMET) and Rotationally Invariant Slave Bosons (RISB). We show that DMET can be regarded as a simplification of the RISB method where the quasiparticle weight is set to unity. This relation allows to easily transpose extensions of a given method to another: for instance, a temperature-dependent version of RISB can be used to derive a temperature-dependent free-energy formula for DMET.
