  3. Introduction non-equilibrium propagators why "semigroup rule" at all? A little primer on SG rule and quasiparticles

  4. Non-equilibrium propagators Even out of equilibrium and in the presence of external fields, the definition is the same: The propagators do not contain the whole story, but they have some advantages: The universal equal-time boundary condition The Dyson equation involving only retarded quantities has a pronounced causal structure, with times ordered from right to the left. Consequence: no singular terms in the self-energy even for correlated initial conditions. Semi-Group Property …

  9. Semi-group rule for propagators This is a postulated property of the propagator, not an exact result. … rule means indeed a composition rule: from two bits of the propagator put together their summary effect Semi-group means the following: associative non-commutative grupoid with unity, but with no inversion element. The grupoid operation is a plain (operator) multiplication at a fixed time, no time integration is involved. This is very different from the NGF symbolic multiplication. Compare SGR with How could anybody even conceive of such a strange "rule"? Semi-Group Property …

  10. Motivation for the Semi-group rule Old idea: GKBA and the "semi-group property" of propagators are closely related…In fact,SG  GKBA Semi-group property is exact for free particles (even with U(t) ): It is closely related with the quasi-particle model  Primer Semi-Group Property …

  16. Ways to correct the semi-group rule Semi-group rule (desired behavior): Quasi-particle composition rule (also just desired): If the quasi-particle picture is valid in equilibrium, this can be proved. Out of equilibrium, this rule itself serves to define the QP behavior… a double task. A vertex correction must appear for dressed propagators of the form: Our aim will be to derive this vertex correction, the Renormalized SG rule.
