Performance analysis of continuous-time solvers for quantum impurity models

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

Impurity solvers play an essential role in the numerical investigation of strongly correlated electrons systems within the "dynamical mean field" approximation. Recently, a new class of continuous-time solvers has been developed, based on a diagrammatic expansion of the partition function in either the interactions or the impurity-bath hybridization. We investigate the performance of these two complementary approaches and compare them to the well-established Hirsch-Fye method. The results show that the continuous-time methods, and in particular the version which expands in the hybridization, provide substantial gains in computational efficiency.
