Comment on “ Boson - fermion model beyond the mean - field approximation ”

چکیده
In a recent paper [Alexandrov A S 1996 J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 8 6923–32; cond-mat/9603111], it has been suggested that there is no Cooper pairing in boson-fermion models of superconductivity. We show that this conjecture is based on an inconsistent approximation that violates an exact identity. Quite generally, the divergence of the fermion t-matrix (the Thouless criterion) is accompanied by the condensation of a boson mode.

Boson-fermion Model beyond Mean-field Approximation
A model of hybridized bosons and fermions is studied beyond the mean field approximation. The divergent boson self-energy at zero temperature makes the Cooper pairing of fermions impossible. The frequency and momentum dependence of the self-energy and the condensation temperature T c of initially localized bosons are calculated analytically. The value of the boson condensation temperature T c i...
متن کاملQuantum field theory of dilute homogeneous Bose-Fermi mixtures at zero temperature: general formalism and beyond mean-field corrections
We consider a dilute homogeneous mixture of bosons and spin-polarized fermions at zero temperature. We first construct the formal scheme for carrying out systematic perturbation theory in terms of single particle Green’s functions. We especially focus on the description of the boson-fermion interaction. To do so we need to introduce a new relevant object, the renormalized boson-fermion T -matri...

Neutron-proton pairing correlations are studied within the context of two solvable models, one based on the algebra SO(5) and the other on the algebra SO(8). Boson-mapping techniques are applied to these models and shown to provide a convenient methodological tool both for solving such problems and for gaining useful insight into general features of pairing. We first focus on the SO(5) model, w...
متن کاملThe Friedrichs-Model with fermion-boson couplings
In this work we present an extended version of the Friedrichs Model, which includes fermion-boson couplings. The set of fermion bound states is coupled to a boson field with discrete and continuous components. As a result of the coupling some of the fermion states may become resonant states. This feature suggests the existence of a formal link between the occurrence of Gamow Resonant States in ...
متن کاملDerivation of Lorentz Invariance and Three Space Dimensions in Generic Field Theory
A very general quantum field theory, which is not even assumed to be Lorentz invariant, is studied in the limit of very low energy excitations. Fermion and Boson field theories are considered in parallel. Remarkably, in both cases it is argued that, in the free and lowest energy approximation, a relativistic theory with just three space and one time dimension emerges for each particle type sepa...
