| contents | Self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation combined with solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation offers a powerful tool for studies of strong correlation effects arising in condensed matter models, nuclear physics, quantum field theories, and real materials. The standard finite-temperature approach would be to first solve the problem in the Matsubara representation and then apply numerical analytic continuation to the real-frequency axis to link theoretical results with experimental probes, but this ill-conditioned procedure often distorts important spectral features even for very accurate imaginary-frequency data. We demonstrate that the ladder-type finite-temperature Bethe-Salpeter equation in the Hartree-Fock basis for the 3-point vertex function and, ultimately, system's polarization can be accurately solved directly on the real frequency axis using the diagrammatic Monte Carlo technique and series resummation. We illustrate the method by applying it to the homogeneous electron gas model and demonstrate how multiple scattering events renormalize Landau damping. |
