Let nF(ω)=1eβ(ω)+1 be the Fermi function.
A fermionic reservoir correlation function is given by:
C12(t)=∫+∞−∞dω JR(ω)nF(ω)e−iωt
The Fermi function here is given in terms of Chebyshev polynomials.
The coefficients of the Chebyshev polynomials are given by:
ck=2π∫π0f(cosθ)cos(kθ)dθ
n′F(x)=n∑k=0[2π∫π0coskθdθeβ(EF−cosθ)+1]Tk(x)
Now, since the Fermi function here has no poles(as it's given in terms of Chebyshev interpolation polynomials which do not have any poles), the poles in the correlation function are only those of the Spectral Density: JR(ω)=m∑k=1pk4Ωk(ω−Ωk)2+Γ2k
There's only pole at: ω=Ωk−iΓk=Ω−k, and the residue is 1(ω−Ωk)−iΓk|ω=Ω−k=1−2iΓk.
Or the residue of JR(ω) at ω=Ω−k:
Resω=Ω−kJR(ω)=pk4Ωk(−2iΓk)
My question is: How can the integral of the correlation function now be solved using the theorem of residues/Jordan's lemma? Is it still possible or another scheme should be employed?
If the Fermi function was given in terms of Matsubara frequency sum, it would have had poles and then it's residues could be calculated. Now it does not, and I can't see how the integral can be solved now. If the Fermi function had poles, we could have said:
Noting that Poles of JR(ω): Ω−k, and the poles of nF(ω): ν∗k′, we could have gotten:
C12(t)=(−)(2iπ){m∑k=1Resω=Ω−k[JR(ω)]nF(Ω−k)e−iΩ−kt+∑k′Resω=ν∗k′[nF(ω)]JR(ν∗k′)e−iν∗k′t}
And then the residues could have been calculated.
A bit different Version of the same problem(If you decide to answer, kindly answer this first):
Here's a function:
C12(t)=∫+∞−∞dω JR(ω)nF(ω)e−iωt
Here's n′F(x)≈nF(ω):
n′F(x)=n∑k=0[2π∫π0coskθdθeβ(EF−cosθ)+1]Tk(x)
Also, n′F(x) has no poles.
And, JR(ω)=m∑k=1pk4Ωk(ω−Ωk)2+Γ2k
Are the prerequisites of Jordan's Lemma fulfilled? That is, can equation (1) be written as equation (4) after inserting (2) and (3) in (1) and then applying Jordan's Lemma?
C12(t)=(−)(2iπ){m∑k=1Resω=Ω−k[JR(ω)]n′F(Ω−k)e−iΩ−kt}
Answer
I have just found out that it is fundamentally wrong to approximate the fermi function with chebyshev polynomials. Representation of the Fermi function on the real axis by Chebychev polynomials might be okay, but the representation of the Fermi function in the complex plane and especially close to the poles of the Fermi function is certainly very poor (no pole versus pole). By applying Jordan's lemma to this poor representation we miss the most important ingredients, i.e. the poles, will certainly result in a poor result.
