We study the influence of a linear energy bias on a non-equilibrium excitation on a chain of molecules coupled to local phonons (a tilted Holstein model) using both a random-walk rate kernel theory and a nonperturbative, massively…

We use the moment approach of Nolting (exact sum rules) (Z. Physik 255, 25 (1972)) for the attractive Hubbard model in the superconducting phase. Our diagonal and off - diagonal spectral functions are constructed and evaluated with the sum…

We obtain the self-energy of the electronic propagator due to the presence of Holstein polarons within the first Born approximation. This leads to a renormalization of the Fermi velocity of one percent. We further compute the optical…
From the early days of many-body physics, it was realized that the self-energy governs the relaxation or lifetime of the retarded Green$'$s function. So it seems reasonable to directly extend those results into the nonequilibrium domain.…
