Abstract
The variational selfenergy method is applied to a study of the halffilled periodic Anderson model Trialselfenergies and the numerical value of the Luttinger–Ward functional are obtained by diagonalization of a single c – f dimer The dependence of the zerotemperature singleparticle gap on the c – fhybridization is found in qualitative agreement with meanfield theory for the Kondolattice the specific heat agrees well with numerical results from densitymatrixrenormalization group calculations The single particle spectral function at finitetemperature shows marked deviations from a hybridization picture which agree well with quantum Monte–Carlo results
