postprocessing.maxent_gf_imp

Analytic continuation of the impurity Green’s function to the impurity spectral function using maxent.

Reads G_imp(i omega) from the h5 archive and writes A_imp(omega) back. See the docstring of main() for more information.

Not mpi parallelized.

postprocessing.maxent_gf_imp.main(external_path, iteration=None, sum_spins=False, maxent_error=0.02, n_points_maxent=200, n_points_alpha=50, omega_min=-20, omega_max=20)[source]

Main function that reads the impurity Greens (GF) function from h5, analytically continues it, writes the result back to the h5 archive and also returns the results.

Parameters:
external_pathstring

Path to the h5 archive to read from and write to.

iterationint/string

Iteration to read from and write to. Defaults to last_iter.

sum_spinsbool

Whether to sum over the spins or continue the impurity GF for the up and down spin separately, for example for magnetized results.

maxent_errorfloat

The error that is used for the analyzers.

n_points_maxentint

Number of omega points on the hyperbolic mesh used in the continuation.

n_points_alphaint

Number of points that the MaxEnt alpha parameter is varied on logarithmically.

omega_minfloat

Lower end of range where the GF is being continued. Range has to comprise all features of the impurity GF for correct normalization.

omega_maxfloat

Upper end of range where the GF is being continued. See omega_min.

Returns:
maxent_resultslist

The omega mesh and impurity spectral function from two different analyzers in a dict for each impurity
