Scaling approach to a time-dependent Kondo model: from adiabatic switching to an interaction quench — •Constantin Tomaras and Stefan Kehrein — LMU München, Department für Physik und Arnold-Sommerfeld-Center for Theoretical Physics, Theresienstraße 37, D-80333 München, Germany

The time-dependent quantum many-body problem has become of particular interest within the recent years [1]. Less is known about the transition from adiabatic turning on the interaction to an interaction quench in generic many-body systems. For the Hubbard model the quench physics were accessible with the help of flow equations [2], while the transition to an adiabatic switching procedure has been investigated by means of Keldysh perturbation theory [3]. Here we consider the isotropic ferromagnetic Kondo model, in which the interaction is switched on according to the time-dependent exchange couplings J_kk′(t). Following [4,5], a convenient measure of the deviation of the impurity-spin z-component, from idealized adiabatic evolution is the ratio µ=⟨0|S^z(t→∞)−S^z|0⟩/(⟨0|S^z|0⟩−⟨0|S^z|0⟩). |0⟩,|0⟩ are the ground states of the interacting and non-interacting system. Applying some generalized renormalization scheme, the ratio µ is shown to interpolate continuously between its quenched and adiabatic value.
