Talk:Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation is an example of the method of auxiliary fields, but really should have a page of its own.
I plan to add one here in the not-too-distant future, with roughly the following contents:
- Basic physical motivation
- Path-integral formulation
- Mathematical identity
- Example: fermions with an attractive interaction
- Discrete Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation
- Hamiltonian formulation
- Physical motivation
- Equivalence to path-integral formulation
