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 investigate the scattering of an electron by phonons in a small structure between two one-dimensional tight-binding leads. This model mimics the quantum electron transport through atomic wires or molecular junctions coupled to metallic…
We consider an electron-phonon system in two and three dimensions on square, hexagonal and cubic lattices. The model is a modification of the standard Holstein model where the optical branch is appropriately curved in order to have a…
Numerically "exact" methods addressing the dynamics of coupled electron--phonon systems have been intensively developed. Nevertheless, the corresponding results for the electron mobility $\mu_\mathrm{dc}$ are scarce, even for the…
We study, at zero temperature, the dynamics of a single electron in a Holstein model augmented by site-diagonal, binary-alloy type disorder. The average over the phonon vacuum and the alloy configurations is performed within a generalized…
The spectral weight functions and the optical conductivity of the Holstein model are studied on a one-dimensional six-site lattice with periodic boundary conditions for three different electron concentrations: a single electron, two…
We discuss a semiclassical approach to solve the quantum impurity model within non-equilibrium dynamical mean-field theory for electron-lattice models. The effect of electronic fluctuations on the phonon is kept beyond Ehrenfest dynamics,…
Electron-phonon interactions play a key role in many branches of solid-state physics. Here, our focus is on the transport properties of one-dimensional systems, and we apply efficient real-time matrix-product state methods to compute the…
We investigate the effect of electron-phonon interaction on the phononic properties in the one-dimensional half-filled Holstein model of spinless fermions. By means of determinantal Quantum Monte Carlo simulation we show that the behavior…
We study the finite-temperature transport of electrons coupled to anharmonic local phonons. Our focus is on the high-temperature incoherent regime, where controlled calculations are possible both for weak and strong electron--phonon…
We derive the steady-state electron distribution function for a semiconductor driven far from equilibrium by the inter-band photoexcitation assumed homogeneous over the nanoscale sample. Our analytical treatment is based on the…
We calculate the spectral properties of the one-dimensional Holstein and breathing polarons using the self-consistent Born approximation. The Holstein model electron-phonon coupling is momentum independent while the breathing coupling…
We extend a recently introduced semiclassical approach to calculating the influence of local lattice fluctuations on electronic properties of metals and metallic molecular crystals. The effective action of electrons in degenerate orbital…
The dynamical interplay between electron-electron interactions and electron-phonon coupling is investigated within the Anderson-Holstein model, a minimal model for open quantum systems that embody these effects. The influence of phonons on…
Numerical modeling is used to investigate the dynamics of a polaron in a chain with small random Langevin-like perturbations which imitate the environmental temperature $T$ and under the influence of a constant electric field. In the…
We study the phase-ordering dynamics of a quasi-classical Holstein model. At half-filling, the zero-temperature ground state is a commensurate charge-density-wave (CDW) with alternating occupied and empty sites. This quasi-classical…
We provide a comprehensive solution to the lattice dynamics problem in the two dimensional Holstein model at finite electron density and finite temperature. We work in the physically relevant adiabatic regime and vary the electron-phonon…
When an electron interacts with phonons, the electron can exhibit either free electron-like or polaron-like properties. The latter tends to occur for very strong coupling, and results in a phonon cloud accompanying the electron as it moves,…
The thermodynamic and spectral properties of electrons coupled to quantum phonons are studied within the spinless Holstein model. Using quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we obtain accurate results for the specific heat and the…
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…
