Abstract

The partition function by means of the static path approximation (SPA) plus the random-phase approximation (RPA) treatment can be written as a contour integral form without solving the RPA equations for a separable interaction. This method is an efficient way to evaluate numerically the partition function for realistic calculations. As an illustration, we adopt the pairing model at finite temperature.
