Hi guys, I wass recently thinking about the Anderson model in its non-interacting limit U=0. I ommit spin in the following and then the hamiltonian is

[tex]H_{0} + \varepsilon_{0}d^{\dagger}d + \sum_{k} V_{k}c_{k}^{\dagger}d + \text{h.c}[/tex]

It is well know that due to the hybridization term V, a resonance of width ~ V^2 happens in the density of states of the impurity site. But suppose this term

[tex]\sum_{k} V_{k}c_{k}^{\dagger}d + \text{h.c}[/tex]

is now changed to the term:

[tex]\sum_{k} V_{k}c_{k}^{\dagger}d^{\dagger} + \text{h.c}[/tex]

i.e., particle number is NOT conserved in this modified Anderson hamiltonian at U=0. Would we still observe a resonance peak at the impurity density of states? The physics of such term are a bit unclear to me since it does not represent an hybridization term properly speaking, Thanks!
