Due to the dispersion of optical phonons, long range electron-phonon correlations renormalize downwards the coupling strength in the Holstein model. We evaluate the size of this effect both in a linear chain and in a square lattice for a…

We propose an electron-phonon parameterization which reliably reproduces the geometry and harmonic frequencies of a real system. With respect to standard electron-phonon models, it adds a "double-counting" correction, which takes into…

It is common practice to try to understand electron interactions in metals by defining a hierarchy of energy scales. Very often, the Fermi energy is considered the largest, so much so that frequently bandwidths are approximated as infinite.…
