CONSERVING APPROXIMATIONS FOR STRONGLY FLUCTUATING ELECTRON-SYSTEMS .2. NUMERICAL RESULTS AND PARQUET EXTENSION

We describe an iterative technique for solution of the de Dominicis-Martin parquet equations for lattice electrons and state the relationship of this approach to conserving extensions of Hartree-Fock theory. We propose a physically motivated and computationally feasible pseudopotential approximation, which allows the solution of the parquet equations for the two-dimensional Hubbard model. We present calculations of static and dynamic Hubbard-model correlation functions based on the pseudopotential parquet and a simpler conserving approximation. For a wide parameter range the pseudopotential parquet results are in nearly quantitative agreement with finite-lattice quantum Monte Carlo results.
