Abstract

We study an interplay of disorder and correlation in the one-dimensional hole-doped Hubbard-model with disorder (Anderson-Hubbard model) by using the density-matrix renormalization group method. Concentrating on the doped-hole-density profile, we find in a large U/t regime that the clean system exhibits a simple fluidlike behavior whereas finite disorders create locally Mott regions which expand their area with increasing the disorder strength contrary to the conventional sense. We propose that such an anomalous Mott phase formation assisted by disorder is easily observable in atomic Fermi gases by setting up the box-shape trap.

Interplay of Anderson localization and strong interactions in disordered systems

Peter Henseler

We study the interplay of disorder localization and strong local interactions within the Anderson-Hubbard model. Taking into account local Mott-Hubbard physics and static screening of the disorder potential, the system is mapped onto an effective single-particle Anderson model, which is studied within the self-consistent theory of electron localization. For fermions, we find rich nonmonotonic behavior of the localization length ξ, particularly in two-dimensional systems, including an interaction-induced exponential enhancement of ξ for small and intermediate disorders and a strong reduction of ξ due to hopping suppression by strong interactions. In three dimensions, we identify for half filling a Mott-Hubbard-assisted Anderson localized phase existing between the metallic and the Mott-Hubbardgapped phases. For small U there is re-entrant behavior from the Anderson localized phase to the metallic phase. For bosons, the unrestricted particle occupation number per lattice site yields a monotonic enhancement of ξ as a function of decreasing interaction, which we assume to persist until the superfluid Bose- Einstein condensate phase is entered. Besides, we study cold atomic gases expanding, by a diffusion process, in a weak random potential. We show that the density-density correlation function of the expanding gas is strongly affected by disorder and we estimate the typical size of a speckle spot, i.e., a region of enhanced or depleted density. Both a Fermi gas and a Bose-Einstein condensate (in a mean-field approach) are considered.

Magnetic localization in the spin-polarized one-dimensional Anderson-Hubbard model

Masahiko Okumura, S. Yamada, Nobuhiko Taniguchi +1 more

In order to study an interplay of disorder, correlation, and spin imbalance on antiferromagnetism, we systematically explore the ground state of one-dimensional spin-imbalanced Anderson-Hubbard model by using the density-matrix renormalization-group method. We find that disorders localize the antiferromagnetic spin-density wave induced by imbalanced fermions and the increase in the disorder magnitude shrinks the areas of the localized antiferromagnetized regions. Moreover, the antiferromagnetism finally disappears above a large disorder. The localization behaviors are observable in atomic Fermi gases loaded on optical lattices as broadening of the momentum distribution of the spin density by using the Stern-Gerlach type of time-of-flight imaging.

Anderson localization effects on the doped Hubbard model

Nathan Giovanni, Marcello Civelli, Maria C. O. Aguiar

We derive the disorder vs doping phase diagram of the doped Hubbard model via dynamical mean-field theory combined with typical medium theory, which allows the description of both Mott (correlation driven) and Anderson (disorder driven) metal-insulator transitions. We observe a transition from a metal to an Anderson-Mott insulator for increasing disorder strength at all interactions. In the weak correlation regime and rather small doping, the Anderson-Mott insulator displays properties which are similar to the ones found at half filling. In particular, this phase is characterized by the presence of empty sites. If we further increase either the doping or the correlation, however, an Anderson-Mott phase of a different kind arises for sharply weaker disorder strength. This phase occupies the largest part of the phase diagram in the strong-correlation regime and is characterized by the absence of the empty sites.

Finite-size scaling of correlation functions in the one-dimensional Anderson-Hubbard model

Satoshi Nishimoto, Tomonori Shirakawa

We study the one-dimensional Anderson-Hubbard model using the density-matrix renormalization-group method. The influence of disorder on the Tomonaga- Luttinger liquid behavior is quantitatively discussed. Based on the finite-size scaling analysis of density-density correlation functions, we find the following results: (i) the charge exponent is significantly reduced by disorder at low filling and near half filling, (ii) the localization length decays as $\ensuremath{\xi}\ensuremath{\sim}{\ensuremath{\Delta}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$, where $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ is the disorder strength, independently of the on-site Coulomb interaction as well as band filling, and (iii) the localization length is strongly suppressed by the on-site Coulomb interaction near half filling in association with the formation of the Mott plateaus.

Signatures of Delocalization in the Fermionic 1D Hubbard Model with Box Disorder: Comparative Study with DMRG and R-DMFT

Julia Wernsdorfer, Georg Harder, Schollwoeck, Ulrich +1 more

We investigate the 1D Anderson-Hubbard model at half filling with box-disorder. The ground state phase diagram is obtained by means of real-space dynamical mean-field theory (R-DMFT) and the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). We find Mott insulating and Anderson localized regimes as well as a strong indication of a delocalized phase for intermediate interaction and disorder strength within accessible system sizes. These phases are characterized and distinguished by qualitatively different scaling behavior of the local density of states, the energy gap in the excitation spectrum and the inverse participation number.

The Mott-Anderson transition in the disordered one-dimensional Hubbard model

Ramesh V. Pai, Alexander Punnoose, Rudolf A. Römer

We use the density matrix renormalization group to study the quantum transitions that occur in the half-filled one-dimensional fermionic Hubbard model with onsite potential disorder. We find a transition from the gapped Mott phase with algebraic spin correlations to a gapless spin-disordered phase beyond a critical strength of the disorder $Δ_c \approx U/2$. Both the transitions in the charge and spin sectors are shown to be coincident. We also establish the finite-size corrections to the charge gap and the spin-spin correlation length in the presence of disorder and using a finite-size-scaling analysis we obtain the zero temperature phase diagram of the various quantum phase transitions that occur in the disorder-interaction plane.
