Quasiparticle Interactions for f$^2$-Impurity Anderson Model with Crystalline-Electric-Field: Numerical Renormalization Group Study

The aspect of the quasiparticle interaction of a local Fermi liquid, the impurity version of f$^2$-based heavy fermions, is studied by the Wilson numerical renormalization group method. In particular, the case of the f$^2$-singlet crystalline-electric-field ground state is investigated assuming the case of UPt$_3$ with the hexagonal symmetry. It is found that the interorbital interaction becomes larger than the intraorbital one in contrast to the case of the bare Coulomb interaction for the parameters relevant to UPt$_3$. This result offers us a basis to construct a microscopic theory of the superconductivity of UPt$_3$ where the interorbital interactions are expected to play important roles.
