Antiferromagnetic or charge density wave fluctuations couple with light through the recently discovered {\pi}-ton contribution to the optical conductivity, and quite generically constitute the dominant vertex corrections in low-dimensional correlated electron systems. Here we study the arguably simplest version of these {\pi}-tons based on the semi-analytical random phase approximation (RPA) ladder in the transversal particle-hole channel. The vertex corrections to the optical conductivity are…
