Improving Spectral Resolution from Real-time Evolution for Correlated Systems

Abstract

Abstract The quality of numerically simulated spectra using real-time evolution methods for strongly correlated systems is affected by both the length of simulation time and the system size, limiting resolution in both frequency and momentum. In this work, we propose a computationally cheap, linear autoregressive machine learning-based framework to extend short-time and short-distance results over a wider range. We use the proposed method to extend the lesser Green’s function for both the Hubbard model and the much more computationally challenging Hubbard-extended Holstein model. This technique significantly improves both the frequency and momentum resolution of the single-particle removal spectrum $${\mathcal{A}}(k,\omega )$$ A ( k , ω ) , allowing the observation of otherwise obscured spectral features due to electron-phonon coupling.
