Generalized f-sum rules and Kohn formulas on nonlinear conductivities

The f-sum rule and the Kohn formula are well-established general constraints on the electric conductivity in quantum many-body systems. We present their generalization to nonlinear conductivities at all orders of the response in a unified manner by considering two limiting quantum time-evolution processes: a quench process and an adiabatic process. Our generalized formulas are valid in any stationary state, including the ground state and finite-temperature Gibbs states, regardless of the details of the system such as the specific form of the kinetic term, the strength of the many-body interactions, or the presence of disorders.
