Polaron formation in insulators and the key role of hole scattering processes: Band insulators, charge density waves and Mott transition

I Amelio, G Mazza, N Goldman - arXiv preprint arXiv:2408.01377, 2024 - arxiv.org
A mobile impurity immersed in a non-interacting Fermi sea is dressed by the gapless particle-
hole excitations of the fermionic medium. This conventional Fermi-polaron setting is well …
