37. Among a few known approaches, the EOM method has several merits. The most important for our purpose is that it is qualitatively correct in the whole parameter space and can follow analytically the effects of various network parameters. Of course, we do not claim to have a full quantitative understanding of the Kondo problem by using the EOM method. For a detailed analysis of this method, see, e.g., V. Kashcheyevs, A. Aharony, and O. Entin-Wohlman, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.73.125338 73, 125338 (2006).
