Numerical evaluation of Green's functions based on the Chebyshev expansion

Abstract

We present a method to determine the impurity Greens function of the interacting resonant level model (IRLM) using numerical simulation techniques based on the expansion of a resolvent expression in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. The iterative determination of the contributions to the expansion is based on a Density Matrix Renormalisation Group algorithm. The spectral function has lorentzian shape, where we can show that the width grows monotonically with the interaction on the contact link. Moreover, for values of the interaction compareable to the band width, there are additional peaks showing up for energies located outside the conduction band.
