Abstract

We study the ground-state properties of the double-chain Hubbard model coupled with ferromagnetic exchange interaction by using the weak-coupling theory, density-matrix renormalization-group technique, and Lanczos exact-diagonalization method. We determine the ground-state phase diagram in the parameter space of the ferromagnetic exchange interaction and band filling. We find that, in high electron-density regime, the spin gap opens and the spin-singlet ${d}_{xy}$-wave-like pairing correlation is most dominant, whereas in low electron-density regime, the fully-polarized ferromagnetic state is stabilized where the spin-triplet ${p}_{y}$-wave-like pairing correlation is most dominant.

Ferromagnetism in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with orbital degeneracy: From low to high electron density

Harumi Sakamoto, Tsutomu Momoi, Kenn Kubo

We studied ferromagnetism in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with doubly degenerate atomic orbitals by means of the density-matrix renormalization-group method and obtained the ground-state phase diagrams. It was found that ferromagnetism is stable from low to high $(0<n<1.75)$ electron density when the interactions are sufficiently strong. The quasi-long-range order of triplet superconductivity coexists with the ferromagnetic order for a strong Hund coupling region, where the interorbital interaction ${U}^{\ensuremath{'}}\ensuremath{-}J$ is attractive. At quarter-filling $(n=1),$ the insulating ferromagnetic state appears, accompanying orbital quasi-long-range order. For low densities $(n<1),$ ferromagnetism occurs owing to the ferromagnetic exchange interaction caused by virtual hoppings of electrons, the same as in the quarter-filled system. This comes from separation of the charge and spin-orbital degrees of freedom in the strong-coupling limit. This ferromagnetism is fragile against variation of band structure. For high densities $(n>1),$ the phase diagram of the ferromagnetic phase is similar to that obtained in infinite dimensions. In this case, the double exchange mechanism is operative for stabilizing the ferromagnetic order and this long-range order is robust against variation of the band dispersion. A partially polarized state appears in the density region $1.68\ensuremath{\lesssim}n\ensuremath{\lesssim}1.75$ and phase separation occurs for n just below the half-filling $(n=2).$

Competition of magnetic and superconducting ordering in one-dimensional generalized Hubbard models

C. Dziurzik

In the present work the numerical density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm is used to analyze the ground state properties of the Hubbard model with transverse spin-exchange. The DMRG algorithm, which was developed by White in 1992, is based on the following simple but effective concept: the ground-state wavefunction as well as the low energy excitations of a large interacting chain are obtained by increasing the lattice size iteratively, starting with a small one that can be diagonalized exactly. The exponentially growing Hilbert space is controlled by a renormalization procedure in which 'less important' degrees of freedom are integrated out. Motivated by recent experimental findings showing evidence for the competition or even coexistence of triplet superconductivity and ferromagnetism we focused our investigations on a rather simple extension of the Hubbard model including transverse spin exchange between electrons on nearest-neighbour sites. In the half-filled case, we showed that the phase diagram obtained in the weak-coupling limit has to be modified. A new phase, described by spin and charge excitation gap, shows long-range order in the longitudinal spin correlation, whereas superconducting correlations are surpressed and decay exponentially as expected for the case of a finite charge gap. In general, the presence of a repulsive on-site Coulomb interaction U leads to an enlargement of the sectors with nonvanishing charge gap at the expense of the sectors with spin gap. We extend our analysis to the case of a quarter-filled band. Depending on the value J/t the model belongs either to a gapless excitation phase or to a spin gapped phase with gapless charge degrees of freedom.

Phase diagram of the one-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

Satoshi Nishimoto, Kazuhiro Sano, Y. Ohta

We study the one-dimensional Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor hopping integrals by using the density-matrix renormalization group method and Hartree-Fock approximation. Based on the calculated results for the spin gap, total-spin quantum number, and Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid parameter, we determine the ground-state phase diagram of the model in the entire filling and wide parameter region. We show that, in contrast to the weak-coupling regime where a spin-gapped liquid phase is predicted in the region with four Fermi points, the spin gap vanishes in a substantial region in the strong-coupling regime. It is remarkable that a large variety of phases, such as the paramagnetic metallic phase, spin-gapped liquid phase, singlet and triplet superconducting phases, and fully polarized ferromagnetic phase, appear in such a simple model in the strong-coupling regime.

Ground-State Properties of the t–J Model for the CuO Double-Chain Structure

Tatsuya Kaneko, Satoshi Ejima, K. Sugimoto +1 more

We investigate the ground-state properties of a correlated model for the double-chain structure in cuprates. We consider the $t$-$J$ model, in which the nearest-neighbor spin interaction $J_1$ is smaller than the next-nearest-neighbor interaction $J_2$ corresponding to the CuO double-chain structure. We vary $J_1$ from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic values and calculate the correlation functions including the superconducting pair correlation function. Employing the density-matrix renormalization group method, we show that the ground state for antiferromagnetic $J_1$ exhibits the hallmarks of the Luther-Emery liquid phase, in which the spin-singlet pair and charge-density-wave correlations exhibit power-law decays against distance, and the spin correlation function decays exponentially. Its signatures are gradually dismissed as $J_1$ approaches the ferromagnetic regime. Our findings suggest that the antiferromagnetic double-chain structure without ferromagnetic bonds is favorable for superconductivity.

Partial Ferromagnetism in a Two-Band Hubbard Model with Semimetallic Bands: Numerical Evidences and a Rigorous Result

Koichi Kusakabe, Shinji Watanabe, Yoshio Kuramoto

Role of the double exchange for appearance of partial ferromagnetism in a semimetal is explored for a semimetallic two-band Hubbard model in one-dimension. In a strong coupling limit, a ferromagnetic exchange interaction between two neighboring triplet excitons becomes dominant compared with anti-ferromagnetic couplings and a partial spin polarization is shown to appear. Exact evaluation of magnetization is possible for the partially ferromagnetic ground state in this limit. Obtained phase diagram has a doping dependence similar to our DMRG results for finite interactions. The ferromagnetism is favored in semimetallic systems by the interplay of the intra-orbital Coulomb repulsion and the inter-orbital Hund-rule coupling.

Phase diagram of the one dimensional $t_1-t_2-J$ model: Ferromagnetism, triplet pairing, charge and pair density waves

Luhang Yang, Adrian E. Feiguin

We present a density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) study of an extended $t-J$ model with hopping to the first and second neighbors -- the one dimensional $t_1-t_2-J$ model. The full phase diagram as a function of the density $n$ and exchange strength $J$, for both positive and negative values of $t_2$, is obtained. For $t_2=-0.5$ we observe that, in the strongly interacting region, Nagaoka Ferromagnetism (FM) is accompanied by a triplet pair density wave (PDW) upon doping. As the spin exchange $J$ increases, a charge density wave (CDW) phase emerges and then gives way to singlet superconductivity (SC). This phase behaves as a singlet PDW with vanishing spacial average of the order parameter and a spin gap. When $t_2=0.5$, the physics is basically reminiscent of the conventional $t-J$ model, undergoing a transition from a metallic to a SC phase as a function of $J$.
