Why not sample the

• Does the general idea work?
Skeleton diagrams up to high-order: do they make sense for g  1 ?
NO
Diverge for large g even if
are convergent for small g.
Dyson: Expansion in
powers of g is asymptotic
if for some (e.g. complex) g one
finds pathological behavior.

Bosons:
Math. Statement:
# of skeleton graphs

zero conv. radius

Skeleton diagrams up to high-order: do they make sense for g  1 ?
YES
Divergent series outside
of finite convergence radius
can be re-summed.
Dyson:
- Does not apply to the resonant Fermi
gas and the Fermi-Hubbard model at
finite T.
- not known if it applies to skeleton
graphs which are NOT series in bare
coupling g: recall the BCS answer
(one lowest-order diagram)
# of graphs is  2n n3/2 n !
but due to sign-blessing
they may compensate each
other to accuracy better then
1 / n ! leading to finite conv.

• Use MC to sample diagrams of different order and/or
different topology
