We study polarons in the one-dimensional Bond-Peierls electron-phonon model, in which phonons on bonds of a lattice modulate the hopping of electrons between lattice sites, and contrast the results to those known for the Breathing-Mode…
In a system where a boson (e.g, a phonon) of finite frequency $\omega_0$ is coupled to electrons, two phenomena occur as the coupling is increased: electron pairing and polarization of the boson field. Within a path integral formalism and a…
