Nonadiabatic superconductivity and vertex corrections in uncorrelated systems

We investigate the issue of the nonadiabatic superconductivity in uncorrelated systems. A local approxima- tion is employed coherently with the weak dependence on the involved momenta. Our results show that nonadiabatic vertex corrections are never negligible, but lead to a strong suppression of Tc with respect to the conventional theory. This feature is understood in terms of the momentum-frequency dependence of the vertex function. In contrast to strongly correlated systems, where the small q selection probes the positive part of vertex function, vertex corrections in uncorrelated systems are essentially negative resulting in an effective reduction of the superconducting pairing. Our analysis shows that vertex corrections in nonadiabatic regime can never be disregarded independently of the degree of electronic correlation in the system.
