4 From a plurality of nuclear models…
→ Useful to identify relevant d.o.f and symmetries → Decent account of phenomena based on employed d.o.f BUT ① No systematic improvement towards accuracy ② No proper understanding of their intrinsic limitations ③ No clear path to connect them Conventional energy density functional method Liquid drop and mic-mac models Collective and algebraic models Conventional shell model Landau theory Cluster models ab initio methods based on conventional interactions Tension between reductionist and emerging viewpoints not appropriately articulated

5 …to an arborescence of nuclear effective (field) theories
Rationale of effective theories ① Identify appropriate energy scales / d.o.f / symmetries ② All interactions complying with symmetries are compulsory ③ Naturalness provides power counting (+ possible fine tuning) ④ Fix LECs from data or from underlying effective theory Reductionist description Emerging phenomena Effective theory-based energy density functional method Effective (field) theory for emerging symmetry breaking Effective theory-based shell model Halo effective field theory Effective theory-based Laudau theory Pion-less effective field theory ab initio methods based on c potentials c-Effective field theory in 2N, 3N… AN sectors Quantum Chromodynamics Appropriate epistemic scheme to articulate reductionist and emerging viewpoints

7 Key concepts and shortcomings of current EDF method
Order parameters (SU(2), U(1)…) ➟ Use of product states essentially following an horizontal expansion ➟ Symmetry breaking (SR) = non-zero order parameters ➟ Symmetry restoration + GCM (MR) = fluctuation of phase + norm of order parameters ➟ Key ingredient = off-diagonal energy and norm kernels Empirically correlated -Density-dependent « operator » -Density (matrix) functional Uncorrelated Phenomenological mean-field form (See K. Bennaceur) ✪ Shortcomings ➟ MR calculations with density-dependent operator/density functional are ill defined ➟ Calculations with effective operator + mean-field kernels potentially lack flexibility ➟ Lack coupling to individual excitations/diabatic effects/vertical configurations in practice

8 Has made the fortune of the EDF method
Ab initio vs EDF approaches In which ways the EDF approach can be rooted into ab initio many-body methods? ✪ Pseudo data to fix param. of EDF kernels ➟ Complement data in unknown regions ➟ H+many-body must be mature enough ➟ NM EOS, static response… (cf. A. Gezerlis) Not yet mature enough in mid-mass nuclei that constitute the natural overlap with EDF method ✪ Analytical guidance to build EDF kernels ➟ Low-density neutron matter (cf. D. Lacroix) ➟ Must be based on same key principles ➟ Symmetry breaking and restoration Has made the fortune of the EDF method

9 EDF method in one slide - Focus on U(1) symmetry
Off-diagonal density matrix Gauge rotation Bogoliubov state Horizontal set of gauge-rotated Bogoliubov states ✪ Off-diagonal EDF kernels and their parametrisations Empirical choices break Pauli principle (self interaction/pairing) [Lacroix et al. 2009, Bender et al. 2009, Duguet et al. 2009] All h(j) are functionals of <= off-diagonal Wick theorem Pure (effective and phenomenological) mean-field kernels Norm kernel Energy kernel Classic choices 1970s’ 1990s’ ✪ SR implementation = HFB-like particle-number breaking scheme Diagonal kernels ✪ MR implementation = particle number restoration scheme Off-diagonal kernels Ill-defined for unappropriate h(j) [Dobaczewski et al. 2007] 2020s’?
