Abstract: In this work, we present an improved version of the formulation of the four auxiliary bosons originally proposed by Kotliar and Ruckenstein, adapted to describe a quantum dot in the Kondo regime with finite electron-electron interaction U. The proposed refinement provides a more accurate treatment of strong electronic correlations while preserving the analytical tractability of the original approach, thereby enabling a reliable description of transport properties in nanoscale systems. Benchmark calculations show good agreement with the results of the numerical renormalization group, supporting the validity of the improved formulation. Our approach therefore provides an efficient and robust framework for investigating transport through strongly correlated quantum dots.
