We study the effect of strong electron-phonon interactions on the damping of the Higgs amplitude mode in superconductors by means of nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field simulations of the Holstein model. In contrast to the BCS dynamics, we find that the damping of the Higgs mode strongly depends on the temperature, becoming faster as the system approaches the transition temperature. The...

We study collective amplitude modes of the superconducting order parameter in strongly coupled electron-phonon systems described by the Holstein model using the nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory with the self-consistent Migdal approximation as an impurity solver. The frequency of the Higgs amplitude mode is found to coincide with the superconducting gap even in the strongly coupled...

We study the relaxation of the Holstein model after a sudden switch-on of the interaction by means of the nonequilibrium dynamical mean field theory, with the self-consistent Migdal approximation as an impurity solver. We show that there exists a qualitative change in the thermalization dynamics as the interaction is varied in the weak-coupling regime. On the weaker interaction side of this...
