Gutzwiller magnetic phase diagram of the undoped t−t′−U Hubbard model

Abstract

We calculate the magnetic phase diagram of the half-filled $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}{t}^{\ensuremath{'}}\text{\ensuremath{-}}U$ Hubbard model as a function of ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ and $U$, within the Gutzwiller approximation plus random-phase approximation. As $U$ increases, the system first crosses over to one of a wide variety of incommensurate phases, whose origin is clarified in terms of double nesting. We evaluate the stability regime of the incommensurate phases by allowing for symmetry breaking with regard to the formation of spin spirals, and find a crossover to commensurate phases as $U$ increases and a full gap opens. The results are compared with a variety of other recent calculations, and in general good agreement is found. For parameters appropriate to the cuprates, double occupancy should be only mildly suppressed in the absence of magnetic order, inconsistent with a strong-coupling scenario.

Magnetic phases of the anisotropic triangular Hubbard model from the ghost-Gutzwiller approximation in the rotating spin-frame

Azin Kazemi-Moridani, Samuele Giuli, Tsung-Han Lee +4 more

We investigate the magnetic phase diagram of the half-filled Hubbard model on the anisotropic triangular lattice using the Gutzwiller approximation (GA) and its ghost generalization (ghost-GA). By combining a rotating spin-frame formulation with high-resolution momentum grids, we determine magnetic ground states through direct total-energy minimization over the ordering wavevector. We benchmark standard GA and ghost-GA against dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) and dual-fermion results. We show that GA already captures the qualitative structure of the phase diagram, but systematically overestimates the stability of magnetic order due to the absence of dynamical fluctuations. We find that introducing a small number of auxiliary ''ghost'' orbitals is sufficient to recover most dynamical effects and significantly improves quantitative agreement with DMFT. Exploring the full Brillouin zone, we obtain a phase diagram comprising paramagnetic and various magnetic phases. In contrast to ladder dual-fermion susceptibility-based predictions, we find that the one-dimensional antiferromagnetic phase is never stabilized, despite being the leading instability in certain regimes. Our results establish ghost-GA as an efficient and systematically improvable framework for studying magnetism in frustrated systems, capable of achieving near-DMFT accuracy at a fraction of the computational cost. They also highlight that standard GA performs qualitatively well for capturing the general phase diagram, enabling the investigation of incommensurate magnetic orders in more complex systems.

Time-dependent Gutzwiller theory of magnetic excitations in the Hubbard model

G. Seibold, Federico Becca, Pavel Rubin +1 more

We use a spin-rotational invariant Gutzwiller energy functional to compute random-phase-approximation-like (RPA) fluctuations on top of the Gutzwiller approximation (GA). The method can be viewed as an extension of the previously developed $\mathrm{GA}+\mathrm{RPA}$ approach for the charge sector [G. Seibold and J. Lorenzana, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 2605 (2001)] with respect to the inclusion of the magnetic excitations. Unlike the charge case, no assumptions about the time evolution of the double occupancy are needed in this case. Interestingly, in a spin-rotational invariant system, we find the correct degeneracy between triplet excitations, showing the consistency of both computations. Since no restrictions are imposed on the symmetry of the underlying saddle-point solution, our approach is suitable for the evaluation of the magnetic susceptibility and dynamical structure factor in strongly correlated inhomogeneous systems. We present a detailed study of the quality of our approach by comparing with exact diagonalization results and show its much higher accuracy compared to the conventional $\mathrm{Hartree}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{Fock}+\mathrm{RPA}$ theory. In infinite dimensions, where the GA becomes exact for the Gutzwiller variational energy, we evaluate ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic instabilities from the transverse magnetic susceptibility. The resulting phase diagram is in complete agreement with previous variational computations.

Thermodynamic properties of one-dimensional hubbard model at finite temperatures

Yang C; Kocharian AN; Chiang YL

[[abstract]]The phase diagram and thermodynamic properties of the Hubbard model in one dimension are calculated numerically within the generalized self-consistent approach over a wide range of temperature T, magnetic field h, interaction strength U/t and electron concentration n. The temperature variation of the transverse magnetization, double occupied sites and chemical potential at various n, U/t and h is also analyzed. The wave vector q for the magnetic order parameter in the vicinity of the half-filling in the metallic phase shows a crossover from incommensurate magnetic phase (0 < q < pi) into the state with strong antiferromagnetic correlations (q = pi) as temperature is increased. Overall our numerical results in the approximate theory at finite temperatures are in good quantitative and qualitative agreement with the Bethe-ansatz results.

Phase diagram of the square-lattice Hubbard model with Rashba-type antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling

Masataka Kawano, Chisa Hotta

We clarify the ground-state phase diagram of the half-filled square-lattice Hubbard model with Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) characterized by the spin-split energy bands due to broken inversion symmetry. Although the Rashba metals and insulating magnets have been studied well, the intermediate interaction strength of the system remained elusive due to the lack of appropriate theoretical tools to unbiasedly describe the large-scale magnetic structures. We complementarily apply four different methods (sine-square deformed mean-field theory, random phase approximation, Luttinger-Tisza method, and density matrix embedding theory) and succeed in capturing the incommensurate spin-density-wave (SDW) phases with very long spatial periods which were previously overlooked. The transition to the SDW phases from the metallic phase is driven by an unprecedented instability that nests the two parts of the Fermi surface carrying opposite spins. For large SOC, the spiral, stipe, and vortex phases are obtained, when the four Dirac points exist near the Fermi level and their whole linear dispersions nest by a wavelength $\ensuremath{\pi}$, opening a band gap. These two types of transition provide Fermiology that distinguishes the antisymmetric SOC systems, generating a variety of magnetic phases that start from the relatively weak correlation regime and continue to the strongly interacting limit.

Magnetic Phase Diagram of the Three-Dimensional Doped Hubbard Model

Liam Rampon, Fedor Šimkovic, Michel Ferrero

We establish the phase diagram of the Hubbard model on a cubic lattice for a wide range of temperatures, dopings, and interaction strengths, considering both commensurate and incommensurate magnetic orders. We use the dynamical mean-field theory together with an efficient method to compute the free energy which enable the determination of the correct ordering vectors. Besides an antiferromagnetic state close to half filling, we identify a number of different magnetic spiral phases with ordering vectors (q,π,π), (q,q,π), and (q,q,q), as well as a region with close competition between them, hinting at spatial phase separation or at the onset of a stripe phase. Additionally, we extensively study several thermodynamic properties with direct relevance to cold-atom experiments: the entropy, energy, and double occupancy.
