A functional renormalization group approach for treating interactions in strongly disordered electron systems — •Christian Seiler1,2 and Ferdinand Evers1,2 — 1Institut für Theorie der Kondensierten Materie, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany — 2Institut für Nanotechnologie, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany
We propose an approach to treat the effects of interactions in disordered electron systems on a numerical level. The idea is to solve the non-interacting disorder problem for a given disorder realization exactly. We then use the functional renormalization group method to introduce interactions on a perturbative level. In contrast to usual applications of the fRG, we formulate it in terms of the eigenfunctions of the disordered non-interacting Hamiltonian. Disorder averaging of physical quantities is performed as the final step. The main advantage of our approach is that we are able to treat disorder exactly from a numerical point of view. We compare our method to exact diagonalization and Hartree-Fock for small systems and discuss its applicability for larger systems.
