Two-site dynamical mean field theory for the dynamic Hubbard model

Abstract

At zero temperature, two-site dynamical mean field theory is applied to the dynamic Hubbard model. The dynamic Hubbard model describes the orbital relaxation that occurs when two electrons occupy the same site, by using a two-level boson field at each site. At finite boson frequency, the appearance of a Mott gap is found to be enhanced even though it shows a metallic phase with the same bare on-site interaction $U$ in the conventional Hubbard model. The lack of electron-hole symmetry is highlighted through the quasiparticle weight and the single-particle density of states at different fillings, which qualitatively differentiates the dynamic Hubbard model from other conventional Hubbard-type models.

Mott transition in the dynamic Hubbard model within slave boson mean-field approach

Duc‐Anh Le

At zero temperature, the Kotliar–Ruckenstein slave boson mean-field approach is applied to the dynamic Hubbard model. In this paper, the influences of the dynamics of the auxiliary boson field on the Mott transition are investigated. At finite boson frequency, the Mott-type features of the Hubbard model is found to be enhanced by increasing the pseudospin coupling parameter g. For sufficiently large pseudospin coupling g, the Mott transition occurs even for modest values of the bare Hubbard interaction U. The lack of electron–hole symmetry is highlighted through the quasiparticle weight. Our results are in good agreement with the ones obtained by two-site dynamical mean-field theory and determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulation.

Dynamical mean-field theory of the Hubbard-Holstein model at half filling: Zero temperature metal-insulator and insulator-insulator transitions

Gun Sang Jeon, Tae-Ho Park, Jung Hoon Han +2 more

We study the Hubbard-Holstein model which includes both the electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions, characterized by $U$ and $g$, respectively. The model is solved with $U$ and $g$ on an equal footing in the infinite dimensions by employing the dynamical mean-field theory in combination with Wilson's numerical renormalization group. A zero temperature phase diagram of symmetry unbroken states at half filling is mapped out which exhibits the interplay between the two kinds of interactions and combines the two separately studied interaction-driven metal-insulator transitions of the Hubbard and Holstein models within a single frame. The ground state is metallic when both $U$ and $g$ are small, but is insulating when $U$ or $g$ is large, referred to as, respectively, Mott-Hubbard insulator (MHI) and bipolaron insulator (BPI). As the phase boundary between the metallic and MHI (BPI) states is approached from the metallic region, the quasiparticle weight $z$ goes to 0 continuously (discontinuously). Moreover, the two insulating states are distinct and cannot be adiabatically connected, and there is a first order phase transition between them.

Mott Transitions in Three-Orbital Hubbard Model at Fractional Band Filling

Tomoko Kita, Takuma Ohashi, Norio Kawakami

We investigate the Mott transitions in the three-orbital Hubbard model by means of the dynamical mean field theory with continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We obtain the phase diagram determined in the orbital level splitting versus Hubbard interaction plane in the case of two electrons per site. It is also found that the introduction of holes into the orbital selective Mott insulating phase induces the metallic state with heavy quasiparticles.

Critical Behaviour near the Mott Transition in a Two-Band Hubbard Model

Ohashi, Yasuo, Yoshiaki Ōno

The Mott metal-insulator transition in the two-band Hubbard model in infinite dimensions is studied by using the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The discontinuity in the chemical potential for the change from hole to electron doping is calculated analytically as a function of the on-site Coulomb interaction $U$, and the charge-transfer energy $Δ$ between the $d$- and $p$-orbitals, transfer integrals $t_{pd}$, $t_{pp}$, $t_{dd}$ between $p$-$d$, $p$-$p$ and $d$-$d$ sites respectively. The critical behaviour of the quasiparticle weight is also obtained analytically.

Phase diagram and quasiparticle properties of the Hubbard model within cluster two-site dynamical mean-field theory

E. C. Carter, A. J. Schofield

We present a cluster dynamical mean-field treatment of the Hubbard model on a square lattice to study the evolution of magnetism and quasiparticle properties as the electron filling and interaction strength are varied. Our approach for solving the dynamical mean-field equations is an extension of Potthoff's ``two-site'' method [Phys. Rev. B. 64, 165114 (2001)], where the self-consistent bath is represented by a highly restricted set of states. As well as the expected antiferromagnetism close to half-filling, we observe distortions of the Fermi surface. The proximity of a van Hove point and the incipient antiferromagnetism lead to the evolution from an electronlike Fermi surface away from the Mott transition, to a holelike one near half-filling. Our results also show a gap opening anisotropically around the Fermi surface, close to the Mott transition (reminiscent of the pseudogap phenomenon seen in the cuprate high-${T}_{c}$ superconductors). This leaves Fermi arcs that are closed into pockets by lines with very small quasiparticle residue.

Mott transition in three-orbital Hubbard model with orbital splitting

Tomoko Kita, Takuma Ohashi, Norio Kawakami

We study the Mott transition in the three-orbital Hubbard model. To investigate how the orbital level splitting and the Ising-type Hund's coupling affect the Mott transition in the case of two electrons per site, we use the dynamical mean-field theory combined with continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The calculation of the double occupancy reveals that the critical interaction strength separating a metallic phase and two kinds of insulating phases shows a nonmonotonic behavior as a function of the level splitting. We find that this behavior is characteristic for $1/3$ filling, in comparison with the preceding results for different fillings and for two-orbital models. Strong competition between the two insulators results in an intriguing first-order transition to an insulating phase having intermediate characters between Mott and band insulators. It is also found that the two insulators show different behaviors in the phase boundary with the metallic phase in the interaction-temperature plane, which is reflected in a difference in the quasiparticle behavior around the transition. We also discuss the orbital selective Mott transition for larger Hund's coupling, which is compared with previous study at zero temperature.
