We study the dynamics of large polarons described by the Froehlich Hamiltonian in the limit of strong coupling. The initial conditions are (perturbations of) product states of an electron wave function and a phonon coherent state, as…
Fr\"{o}hlich's polaron Hamiltonian describes an electron coupled to the quantized phonon field of an ionic crystal. We show that in the strong coupling limit the dynamics of the polaron is approximated by an effective non-linear partial…
We review old and new results on the Fr\"ohlich polaron model. The discussion includes the validity of the (classical) Pekar approximation in the strong coupling limit, quantum corrections to this limit, as well as the divergence of the…
Starting from recent advances in the first-principles modeling of polarons, variational polaron equations in the strong-coupling adiabatic approximation are formulated in Bloch space. In this framework, polaron formation energy as well as…
The optical absorption of the Fr\"{o}hlich polaron model is obtained by an approximation-free Diagrammatic Monte Carlo method and compared with two new approximate approaches that treat lattice relaxation effects in different ways. We show…
We consider the dynamics of the mean-field polaron in the weak-coupling limit of vanishing electron-phonon interaction, $\varepsilon \to 0$. This is a singular limit formally leading to a Schr\"odinger--Poisson system that is equivalent to…
The solution for the large-radius Fr\"{o}hlich polaron in the Schr\"{o}dinger representation of the quantum theory is constructed in the entire range of variation of the coupling constant. The energy and the effective mass of the polaron…
We consider the Fr\"ohlich model of a polaron, and show that its effective mass diverges in the strong coupling limit.
The electronic structure of condensed matter can be significantly affected by the electron-phonon interaction, leading to important phenomena such as electrical resistance, superconductivity or the formation of polarons. This interaction is…
This paper is concerned with Fr\"ohlich polarons subject to external electromagnetic fields in the limit of large electron-phonon coupling. To leading order in the coupling constant, $\sqrt\alpha$, the ground state energy is shown to be…
We present a detailed and self-contained theoretical study of polarons in two-dimensional (2D) polar materials, which extends the classical macroscopic theory of Fr\"ohlich polarons to the 2D case. The theory is fully determined by…
In the present work, the problem of an all-coupling analytic description for the optical conductivity of the Froehlich polaron is treated, with the goal being to bridge the gap in validity range that exists between two complementary…
Polarons, that is, charge carriers correlated with lattice deformations, are ubiquitous quasiparticles in semiconductors, and play an important role in electrical conductivity. To date most theoretical studies of so-called large polarons,…
We describe a variational method to solve the Holstein model for an electron coupled to dynamical, quantum phonons on an infinite lattice. The variational space can be systematically expanded to achieve high accuracy with modest…
An variational expression for the zero temperature polaron impedance is obtained by minimizing the free energy in a generalized quadratic Feynman model. The impedance function of the quadratic model serves as the variational parameter. It…
New variational ansatz for the large-radius Fr\"ohlich polaron is considered. The corresponding operator estimation for the energy of polaron proves to be very similar to the result found by Feynman on the basis of the variational principle…
We consider a one dimensional model of an electron in a doubly (or nearly) degenerate band that interacts with elastic distortions. We show that the electron equations of motion reduce to a set of coupled non-linear Schrodinger equations.…
We present accurate results for optical conductivity of the three dimensional Frohlich polaron in all coupling regimes. The systematic-error free diagrammatic quantum Monte Carlo method is employed where the Feynman graphs for the…
We study a class of polaron-type Hamiltonians with sufficiently regular form factor in the interaction term. We investigate the strong-coupling limit of the model, and prove suitable bounds on the ground state energy as a function of the…
We study the qualitative behaviour of the energy-momentum relation of the Fr\"ohlich polaron at fixed coupling strength. Among other properties, we show that it is non-decreasing and that the correction to the quasi-particle energy is…
