opendf - an implementation of the dual fermion method for strongly correlated systems

Abstract

The dual fermion method is a multiscale approach for solving lattice problems of interacting strongly correlated systems. In this paper, we present the \texttt{opendf} code, an open-source implementation of the dual fermion method applicable to fermionic single-orbital lattice models in dimensions $D=1,2,3$ and $4$. The method is built on a dynamical mean field starting point, which neglects all local correlations, and perturbatively adds spatial correlations. Our code is distributed as an open-source package under the GNU public license version 2.
