We propose a new many-body method based on the correlation functions, in which the multiple products of the correlation functions are expanded into the many-body diagrams using the cluster expansion method and every diagram is independently…

Quantum many-body systems are typically endowed with a tensor product structure. This structure is inherited from probability theory, where the probability of two independent events is the product of the probabilities. The tensor product…
