For many-electron systems, we consider a nonequilibrium state (NES) that is driven by a pump field(s), which is either an optical field or a longitudinal electric field. For the differential optical conductivity describing the differential response of the NES to a probe optical field, we derive exact sum rules and asymptotic behaviors, which open wide possibilities for experiments. In deriving these results, we have also derived universal properties of general differential response functions of time-dependent NESs of general systems.

  • 16 When A(t) is monochromatic, one might be interested in σαβA (ω;ν), which is the FT of σαβA (ω; t) with respect to t. If A(t) is sufficiently weak, σαβA (ω;ν) has a peak at ν=Ω, where Ω is the frequency of A(t). As A(t) becomes stronger, σαβA (ω;ν) has more peaks as a function ofν, until, for a strong A(t), it has a broad spectrum in addition to multiple peaks. Google Scholar
