Optimal ramp shapes for the fermionic Hubbard model in infinite dimensions
We use non-equilibrium dynamical mean field theory and a real-time diagrammatic impurity solver to study the heating associated with time-dependent changes of the interaction in a fermionic Hubbard model. Optimal ramp shapes U(t) which minimize the excitation energy are determined for an infinitesimal change. For ramp times of a few inverse hoppings, these optimal U(t) are strongly oscillating with a frequency determined by the bandwidth. We show that the scaled versions of the optimized ramps yield substantially lower temperatures than linear ramps even far outside the perturbative regime.
