Nov 4, 2022 at 4:03 | comment | added | Guoqing | @TomDickens I've checked the Gaussian integral $\int \exp(-ax^2+bx)dx\propto \exp(b^2/4a)$, and I think it still holds for a Grassmann variable $b$. | |
Nov 3, 2022 at 14:49 | comment | added | Tom Dickens | Are you using the fact that Grassmann variables anti-commute? | |
Nov 3, 2022 at 14:17 | comment | added | Guoqing | @CarloBeenakker. I try to perform this integral by decomposing $dH$ into $dH_{11}dH_{12}\cdots dH_{NN}$, but I find it's not consistent with the answer in text book, even for integral over diagonal element $dH_{11}dH_{22}\cdots dH_{NN}$. Could you help me to check my derivations? | |

Nov 2, 2022 at 16:39 | comment | added | Carlo Beenakker | the key reference is Efetov Supersymmetry in Disorder and Chaos --- this is quite sophisticated machinery, if you are unfamiliar with the basics I think you will first want to do some background reading. | |
