Static versus dynamic fluctuations in the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model

Abstract

The extended Hubbard Hamiltonian is a widely accepted model for uncovering the effects of strong correlations on the phase diagram of low-dimensional systems, and a variety of theoretical techniques have been applied to it. In this paper the world-line quantum Monte Carlo method is used to study spin, charge, and bond order correlations of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model in the presence of coupling to the lattice. A static alternating lattice distortion (the ionic Hubbard model) leads to enhanced charge density wave correlations at the expense of antiferromagnetic order. When the lattice degrees of freedom are dynamic (the Hubbard-Holstein model), we show that a similar effect occurs even though the charge asymmetry must arise spontaneously. Although the evolution of the total energy with lattice coupling is smooth, the individual components exhibit sharp crossovers at the phase boundaries. Finally, we observe a tendency for bond order in the region between the charge and spin density wave phases.

Phase transitions in strongly interacting quantum systems

Christopher N. Varney

Strongly correlated materials exhibit some of the most complex and technologically useful phenomena in condensed matter. We use the world line and determinant quantum Monte Carlo techniques to explore the phases of the Hubbard Hamiltonian, a model describing strong interactions, in a number of different contexts. We first consider the spin, charge, and bond order correlations of the one-dimensional extended fermion Hubbard model in the presence of a coupling to the lattice. A static alternating lattice distortion leads to enhanced charge density wave correlations at the expense of antiferromagnetic order. When the lattice degrees of freedom are dynamic, we show that a similar effect occurs even though the charge asymmetry must arise spontaneously. Although the evolution of the total energy with lattice coupling is smooth, the individual components exhibit sharp crossovers at the phase boundaries. Finally, we observe a tendency for bond order in the region between the charge and spin density wave phases. Second, we examine mixtures of bosons and fermions in one-dimensional optical lattices. We evaluate the density profiles and bosonic visibility [special characters omitted] resolving the discrepancy between theory and experiment by identifying parameter regimes where [special characters omitted] is reduced and increased. We present a simple qualitative picture of the different response to the fermion admixture in terms of the superfluid and Mott-insulating domains before and after the fermions are included. Finally, we show that [special characters omitted] exhibits kinks which are tied to the domain evolution present in the pure bosonic case, and also additional structure arising from the formation of boson-fermion molecules, a prediction for future experiments. Third, we report large scale calculations of the effective bandwidth, momentum distribution, and magnetic correlations of the square lattice fermion Hubbard Hamiltonian. The sharp Fermi surface of the non-interacting limit is significantly broadened by the electronic correlations, but retains signatures of the approach to the edges of the first Brillouin zone as the density increases. Finite size scaling of simulations on large lattices allows us to extract the interaction dependence of the antiferromagnetic order parameter, exhibiting its evolution from weak-coupling to the strong-coupling Heisenberg limit. Our lattices provide improved resolution of the momentum distribution, allowing a more quantitative comparison with time-of-flight optical lattice experiments.

Phase diagram of the two-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model

Natanael C. Costa, Kazuhiro Seki, Seiji Yunoki +1 more

Abstract The electron–electron and electron–phonon interactions play an important role in correlated materials, being key features for spin, charge and pair correlations. Thus, here we investigate their effects in strongly correlated systems by performing unbiased quantum Monte Carlo simulations in the square lattice Hubbard-Holstein model at half-filling. We study the competition and interplay between antiferromagnetism (AFM) and charge-density wave (CDW), establishing its very rich phase diagram. In the region between AFM and CDW phases, we have found an enhancement of superconducting pairing correlations, favouring (nonlocal) s-wave pairs. Our study sheds light over past inconsistencies in the literature, in particular the emergence of CDW in the pure Holstein model case.

Intermediate bond-order-wave phase and nature of the order-to-order transition in the one-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model

Weber, Manuel

The Hubbard-Holstein model is one of the central models that describe the competition between electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions. In one dimension and at half-filling, the interplay between an electronic spin-density wave and a phonon-driven charge-density wave is considered to stabilize an intermediate Luther-Emery liquid. Here we show that, once the extended metallic regime disappears, a narrow bond-order-wave phase emerges. We use an exact directed-loop quantum Monte Carlo method for retarded interactions to simulate system sizes of several hundred sites, necessary to observe the weak signatures of this novel phase. Our results suggest a second-order quantum phase transition between the two charge orders that only turns first-order at strong coupling. Our findings are reminiscent of the extended Hubbard model, but they are driven by competing frequency dependencies of the same dynamically-screened Hubbard interaction.

Stripe correlations in the two-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model

Seher Karakuzu, Andy Tanjaroon Ly, Peizhi Mai +3 more

Abstract Several state-of-the-art numerical methods have observed static or fluctuating spin and charge stripes in doped two-dimensional Hubbard models, suggesting that these orders play a significant role in shaping the cuprate phase diagram. Many experiments, however, also indicate that the cuprates have strong electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling, and it is unclear how this interaction influences stripe correlations. We study static and fluctuating stripe orders in the doped single-band Hubbard-Holstein model using zero temperature variational Monte Carlo and finite temperature determinant quantum Monte Carlo. We find that the lattice couples more strongly with the charge component of the stripes, leading to an enhancement or suppression of stripe correlations, depending on model parameters like the next-nearest-neighbor hopping $${t}^{{\prime} }$$ t′ or phonon energy Ω. Our results help elucidate how thee-ph interaction can tip the delicate balance between stripe and superconducting correlations in the Hubbard-Holstein model with implications for our understanding of the high-Tccuprates.

Sign change of the extended s -wave pairing vertex in the dynamic Hubbard model: A quantum Monte Carlo study

Karim Bouadim, Matthew Enjalran, F. Hébert +2 more

The ``dynamic'' Hubbard Hamiltonian describes interacting fermions on a lattice whose on-site repulsion is modulated by a coupling to a fluctuating bosonic field. We investigate one such model, introduced by Hirsch, using the determinant quantum Monte Carlo method. Our key result is that the extended $s$-wave pairing vertex, repulsive in the usual static Hubbard model, becomes attractive as the coupling to the fluctuating Bose field increases. The sign problem prevents us from exploring a low enough temperature to see if a superconducting transition occurs. We also observe a stabilization of antiferromagnetic correlations and the Mott gap near half-filling, and a near linear behavior of the energy as a function of particle density which indicates a tendency toward phase separation.
