Abstract

We show that the two-dimensional density-matrix renormalization analysis is useful to detect the symmetry breaking in the fermionic model on a triangular lattice. Under the cylindrical boundary conditions with chemical potentials on edge sites, we find that the partially open edges work as perturbations which makes the spacial structure of a bulk long-range order but not the short-range ones appear directly in the local physical quantities. We also demonstrate that the ordinary size scaling analysis on the charge gap as well as that of the local charge density under this boundary condition could determine the metal-insulator phase boundary, which scales almost perfectly with the density of states and the exact solutions in the weak- and strong-coupling regions, respectively.

Neél Order in Square and Triangular Lattice Heisenberg Models

Steven R. White, A. L. Chernyshev

We show that the density matrix renormalization group can be used to study magnetic ordering in two-dimensional spin models. Local quantities should be extrapolated with the truncation error, not with its square root. We introduce sequences of clusters, using cylindrical boundary conditions with pinning fields, which provide for rapidly converging finite-size scaling. We determine the magnetization for both the square and triangular Heisenberg lattices with errors comparable to the best alternative approaches.

Exact Diagonalization Study of Mott Transition in the Hubbard Model on an Anisotropic Triangular Lattice

Takashi Koretsune, Yukitoshi Motome, Akira Furusaki

We study Mott transition in the two-dimensional Hubbard model on an anisotropic triangular lattice. We use the Lanczos exact diagonalization of finite-size clusters up to eighteen sites, and calculate Drude weight, charge gap, double occupancy and spin structure factor. We average these physical quantities over twisted boundary conditions in order to reduce finite-size effects. We find a signature of the Mott transition in the dependence of the Drude weight and/or charge gap on the system size. We also examine the possibility of antiferromagnetic order from the spin structure factor. Combining these information, we propose a ground-state phase diagram which has a nonmagnetic insulating phase between a metallic phase and an insulating phase with antiferromagnetic order. Finally, we compare our results with those reported in the previous theoretical studies, and discuss the possibility of an unconventional insulating state.

Local density of states of the one-dimensional spinless fermion model

E Jeckelmann

We investigate the local density of states of the one-dimensional half-filled spinless fermion model with nearest-neighbour hopping t > 0 and interaction V in its Luttinger liquid phase -2t < V ≤ 2t. The bulk density of states and the local density of states in open chains are calculated over the full band width ∼4t with an energy resolution ≤0.08t using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group (DDMRG) method. We also perform DDMRG simulations with a resolution of 0.01t around the Fermi energy to reveal the power-law behaviour D(ϵ) ∼ |ϵ - ϵ(F)|(α) predicted by the Luttinger liquid theory for bulk and boundary density of states. The exponents α are determined using a finite-size scaling analysis of DDMRG data for lattices with up to 3200 sites. The results agree with the exact exponents given by the Luttinger liquid theory combined with the Bethe Ansatz solution. The crossover from boundary to bulk density of states is analysed. We have found that boundary effects can be seen in the local density of states at all energies, even far away from the chain edges.

Ground states of long-range interacting fermions in one spatial dimension

Zhi-Hua Li

We systematically explore the ground state properties of one dimensional fermions with long-range interactions decaying in a power law ∼[Formula: see text] through the density matrix renormalization group algorithm. By comparing values of Luttinger liquid parameters precisely measured in two different ways, we show convincing evidence that Luttinger liquid theory is valid if [Formula: see text] is larger than some threshold, otherwise the theory breaks down. Combining analysis on structure factor, charge gap and charge stiffness, we determine how the metal-insulator transition point develops as the interaction range is continuously tuned. A region in the range of [Formula: see text] has small interactions and finite charge gaps, but, interestingly, it shows metallic nature at the same time. We obtain approximate phase diagrams for the entire parameter space and for band fillings equal to 1/2 and 1/3. Finally, we compare certain bosonization and field theory formulas with our quasi-exact numerical results, from which disagreements are found.

Hidden Charge Orders in Low-Dimensional Mott Insulators

Serena Fazzini, Arianna Montorsi

The opening of a charge gap driven by interaction is a fingerprint of the transition to a Mott insulating phase. In strongly correlated low-dimensional quantum systems, it can be associated to the ordering of hidden non-local operators. For Fermionic 1D models, in the presence of spin–charge separation and short-ranged interaction, a bosonization analysis proves that such operators are the parity and/or string charge operators. In fact, a finite fractional non-local parity charge order is also capable of characterizing some two-dimensional Mott insulators, in both the Fermionic and the bosonic cases. When string charge order takes place in 1D, degenerate edge modes with fractional charge appear, peculiar of a topological insulator. In this article, we review the above framework, and we test it to investigate through density-matrix-renormalization-group (DMRG) numerical analysis the robustness of both hidden orders at half-filling in the 1D Fermionic Hubbard model extended with long range density-density interaction. The preliminary results obtained at finite size including several neighbors in the case of dipolar, screened and unscreened repulsive Coulomb interactions, confirm the phase diagram of the standard extended Hubbard model. Besides the trivial Mott phase, the bond ordered and charge density wave insulating phases are also not destroyed by longer ranged interaction, and still manifest hidden non-local orders.

Density matrix renormalization group study of superconductivity in the triangular lattice Hubbard model

Jordan Venderley, Eun-Ah Kim

With the discovery of strong-coupling physics and superconductivity in moir\'e superlattices, it is essential to have an understanding of strong-coupling driven superconductivity in systems with trigonal symmetry. The simplest lattice model with trigonal symmetry is the triangular lattice Hubbard model. Although the triangular lattice spin model is a heavily studied model in the context of frustration, studies of the hole-doped triangular lattice Hubbard model are rare. Here, we use density matrix renormalization group to investigate the dominant superconducting channels in the hole-doped triangular lattice Hubbard model over a range of repulsive interaction strengths. We find a clear transition from $p$-wave superconductivity at a moderate on-site repulsion strength ($U/t=2$) at filling above 1/4 ($n\ensuremath{\sim}0.65$) to $d$-wave superconductivity at a strong on-site repulsion strength ($U/t=10$) at filling below 1/4 ($n\ensuremath{\sim}0.4$). The unusual tunability that moir\'e superlattices offer in controlling $U/t$ would open up the opportunity to realize this transition between $d$-wave and $p$-wave superconductivity.
