Compact and Stable Representation of Real-Frequency Spectral Functions for Machine Learning

We introduce a compact and stable moment representation for real-frequency Green's functions, hybridization functions, and self-energies for machine-learning applications, avoiding the inefficiency of dense frequency grids as well as the ill-posed analytic continuation of Matsubara approaches. The representation is constructed from Cayley-mapped trigonometric moments with the Jacobian included, which preserve spectral-weight normalization, tie the moment sequence to a positive matrix-valued spectral measure, and admit a systematic route to a pole representation via ESPRIT. This provides a fixed-dimensional learning target in which physical constraints such as normalization and positivity can be imposed directly. Using a graph-attention neural network with FiLM conditioning, we benchmark the representation on single-orbital DMFT, antiferromagnetic DMFT, and a two-orbital impurity model. The results demonstrate accuracy matching or exceeding that of direct frequency-domain learning, reliable reproduction of the density and staggered magnetization, stable self-energy reconstruction through Dyson equation inversion, and accurate recovery of matrix-valued spectra with orbital mixing.

Validity and Limits of Low Order Hybridization Expansion Approaches for Multi-Orbital Systems

Low-order hybridization expansion methods such as the non-crossing approximation (NCA) and the one-crossing approximation (OCA) are widely used impurity solvers in the study of strongly correlated systems, yet their accuracy in genuine multi-orbital settings remains poorly understood. Using the decoupled orbital limit as a controlled reference point, we derive analytic results connecting multi-orbital restricted propagators and Green's functions to their single-orbital counterparts, identify the diagrammatic mechanisms responsible for the breakdown of low-order methods in multi-orbital settings, and determine their regimes of applicability. Our central finding is that the accuracy of these methods is governed by the least correlated orbital: i.e., the orbital with the most rapidly decaying retarded Green's function. That orbital's properties are transferred to all other orbitals through a spurious coupling generated by the truncated expansion, thereby suppressing correlation-induced features such as the Kondo resonance. This occurs even in orbitals that are themselves strongly correlated within single-orbital calculations using the same approximation scheme. We confirm this numerically across representative two-orbital model systems in the steady-state, systematically identifying the parameter regimes in which low-order methods succeed or fail. Our results provide a practical guide for assessing when insights from single-orbital calculations carry over to multi-orbital settings, and serve as a benchmark for the development and validation of higher-order multi-orbital impurity solvers.

Nonequilibrium Steady State Full Counting Statistics in the Noncrossing Approximation

Quantum transport is often characterized not just by mean observables like the particle or energy current, but by their fluctuations and higher moments, which can act as detailed probes of the physical mechanisms at play. However, relatively few theoretical methods are able to access the full counting statistics (FCS) of transport processes through electronic junctions in strongly correlated regimes. While most experiments are concerned with the steady state properties, most accurate theoretical methods rely on computationally expensive propagation from a tractable initial state. Here, we propose a simple approach for computing the FCS through a junction directly at the steady state, utilizing the propagator noncrossing approximation (NCA). Compared to time propagation, our method offers reduced computational cost at the same level of approximation; but the idea can also be used within other approximations or as a basis for numerically exact techniques. We demonstrate the method's capabilities by investigating the impact of lead dimensionality on electronic transport in the nonequilibrium Anderson impurity model at the onset of Kondo physics. Our results reveal a distinct signature of one dimensional leads in the noise and Fano factor not present for other dimensionalities, showing the potential of FCS measurements as a probe of the environment surrounding a quantum dot.
