Scaling theory vs exact numerical results for spinless resonant level model

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2015-07-30 v1

Abstract

The continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo method is applied to the interacting resonant level model (IRLM) using double expansion with respect to Coulomb interaction Ufc and hybridization V. Thermodynamics of the IRLM without spin is equivalent to the anisotropic Kondo model in the low-energy limit. Exact dynamics and thermodynamics of the IRLM are derived numerically for a wide range of Ufc with a given value of V. For negative Ufc, excellent agreement including a quantum critical point is found with a simple scaling formula that deals with V in the lowest-order, and Ufc up to infinite order. As Ufc becomes positive and large, lower order scaling results deviate from exact numerical results. Possible relevance of the results is discussed to certain Samarium compounds with unusual heavy-fermion behavior.
