Generating functional for the full parquet approximation
  Parquet diagrams sum self-consistently Feynman graphs for the vertex function with all two-particle multiple scatterings. We show how the complete parquet equations for the Hubbard-like models can be integrated to a generating functional from which all thermodynamic quantities are derived via (functional) derivatives. An explicit Luttinger-Ward functional $\Phi[G;\Lambda,{\cal K};U]$ is constructed containing only the renormalized one-particle, $G$, irreducible, $\Lambda$, and reducible, ${\cal K}$, two-particle propagators as independent variational functions. The parquet approximation is proven to be a thermodynamically consistent, $\Phi$-derivable theory obeying the necessary conservation laws.
