Grassmann integral and Balian-Brézin decomposition in
Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov matrix elements
   [PDF]

Takahiro Mizusaki, Makito Oi, Fang-Qi Chen, Yang Sun
We present a new formula to calculate matrix elements of a general unitary operator with respect to Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov states allowing multiple quasi-particle excitations. The Balian-Br\'ezin decomposition of the unitary operator (Il Nuovo Cimento B 64, 37 (1969)) is employed in the derivation. We found that this decomposition is extremely suitable for an application of Fermion coherent state and Grassmann integrals in the quasi-particle basis. The resultant formula is compactly expressed in terms of the Pfaffian, and shows the similar bipartite structure to the formula that we have previously derived in the bare-particles basis (Phys. Lett. B 707, 305 (2012)).
