Dephasing rates within nonequilibrium RG: A generic approach — •Frank Reininghaus, Herbert Schoeller, and Thomas Korb — Institut für Theoretische Physik A, RWTH Aachen, 52056 Aachen, Germany

We consider a generic model for a local quantum system coupled to reservoirs and present a general solution to the problem how relaxation and dephasing rates can be implemented within nonequilibrium renormalization group. Generalizing previous RG-methods [1,2] to a specific frequency representation and using a cutoff on the imaginary frequency axis [3], we show that decay rates always cut off the RG flow and find the physical meaning of these rates. We illustrate the method for the nonequilibrium Kondo model.
