# The Anderson Impurity Model

In these two examples, we use the fermionic chain mapping proposed in [^khon_efficient_2021] to perform tensor network simulations of the Single Impurity Anderson Model (SIAM). The SIAM Hamiltonian is defined as:

$$
\hat H^\text{SIAM} = \hat H_\text{loc} + \hat H_\text{hyb} + \hat H_\text{cond} = \overbrace{\epsilon_d \hat d^\dagger \hat d}^{\hat H_\text{loc}} + \underbrace{\sum_{k} V_k \Big( \hat d^\dagger \hat c_k + \hat c_k^\dagger \hat d \Big)}_{H_\text{hyb}} + \underbrace{\sum_k \epsilon_k \hat c_k^\dagger \hat c_k}_{H_I^\text{chain}}.
$$

All of the operators obey to the usual fermionic anti-commutation relations: $\{\hat c_i, \hat c_j^\dagger \} = \delta_{ij}$, $\{\hat c_i, \hat c_j \} =\{\hat c_i^\dagger, \hat c_j^\dagger \} =0$ $\forall i,j$. The chain mapping is based on a thermofield-like transformation [2], performed with fermions: ancillary fermionic operators $\hat c_{2k}$ are defined, one for each of the original fermionic modes $\hat c_{1k}$. A Bogoliubov transformation is then applied, so that two new fermionic modes $\hat f_{1k}$ and $\hat f_{2k}$ are defined as a linear combination of $\hat c_{1k}$ and $\hat c_{2k}$. Two chains are defined: the chain labelled $1$ for the empty modes, the chain labelled $2$ for the filled modes.
The following relations are used to define the functions equivalent to the spectral density of the bosonic case, one for each chain:

$$
\begin{split}
&V_{1k} = V_{k} \sin \theta_k = \sqrt{\frac{1}{e^{\beta \epsilon_k}+1}} \\
&V_{2k} = V_{k} \cos \theta_k = \sqrt{\frac{1}{e^{-\beta \epsilon_k}+1}},
\end{split}
$$

where we choose the spectral function that characterizes the fermionic bath to be: $V_k= \sqrt{1-k^2}$, and we define the dispersion relation as: $e_k = k$, that is, a linear dispersion relation with propagation speed equal to $1$. This latter choice corresponds to a model of metals (gapless energy spectrum). We select a filled state as the initial state of the defect.
Using the mapping proposed in [^khon_efficient_2021], the chain Hamiltonian becomes:
$$
\begin{split}
\hat H^\text{chain} = \hat H_\text{loc} &+ \sum_{i = \{1,2\}}\bigg[ J_{i,0} \Big(\hat d^\dagger \hat a_{i,0} + \hat d \hat a_{i,0}^\dagger \Big) + \\ &+ \sum_{n=1}^\infty \Big( J_{i,n} \hat a_{i,n}^\dagger \hat a_{i,n-1} + J_{i,n} \hat a_{i,n-1}^\dagger \hat a_{i,n} \Big) + \sum_{n=0}^\infty E_{i,n} \hat a_{i,n}^\dagger \hat a_{i,n} \bigg],
\end{split}
$$
where the $J_{i,n}$ coefficients are the couplings between the chain sites and the $E_{i,n}$ coefficients are the energies associated to each chain site. Clearly, the interactions are between nearest neighbors. This, combined with the fact that the fermions in our model are spinless, enables a straightforward mapping into fermionic operators of the bosonic creation and annihilation operators, that on their part obey to the bosonic commutation relations: $[\hat b_i, \hat b_j^\dagger] = \delta_{ij}$, $[\hat b_i, \hat b_j] =[\hat b_i^\dagger, \hat b_j^\dagger] =0$ $\forall i,j$. The mapping derived from Jordan-Wigner transformations for spinless fermions is:

$$
\hat a_{i}^\dagger \hat a_{i+1} + \hat a_{i+1}^\dagger \hat a_{i} = \hat b_{i}^\dagger \hat b_{i+1} + \hat b_{i+1}^\dagger \hat b_{i}.

It is possible to find the analytical form also for MPOs with long range interaction \cite{mpo}.
