Nonequilibrium sum rules for the retarded self-energy of strongly   correlated electrons
  We derive the first two moment sum rules of the conduction electron retarded self-energy for both the Falicov-Kimball model and the Hubbard model coupled to an external spatially uniform and time-dependent electric field (this derivation also extends the known nonequilibrium moment sum rules for the Green's functions to the third moment). These sum rules are used to further test the accuracy of nonequilibrium solutions to the many-body problem; for example, we illustrate how well the self-energy sum rules are satisfied for the Falicov-Kimball model in infinite dimensions and placed in a uniform electric field turned on at time t=0. In general, the self-energy sum rules are satisfied to a significantly higher accuracy than the Green's functions sum rules.
