Abstract

We study the thermodynamics of a zero-dimensional, cubic cluster described with a Hubbard Hamiltonian, focusing our interest on the magnetic properties. The range in which the studied cluster is paramagnetic is considered. The results are obtained by means of exact numerical diagonalization. Such thermodynamic quantities as entropy, specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, spin-spin correlations and double occupancy are discussed. Particular emphasis is put on the behaviour of local maxima of specific heat and susceptibility, which are analysed in terms of Schottky anomalies.

Exact Diagonalization Study of an Extended Hubbard Model for a Cubic Cluster at Quarter Filling

Karol Szałowski, T. Balcerzak, M. Jaščur +2 more

In the paper the thermodynamics of a cubic cluster with 8 sites at quarter filling is characterized by means of exact diagonalization technique. Particular emphasis is put on the behaviour of such response functions as specific heat and magnetic susceptibility. The system is modelled with extended Hubbard model which includes electron hopping between both first and second nearest neighbours as well as coulombic interactions, both on-site and between nearest-neighbour sites. The importance of hopping between second nearest neighbours and coulombic interactions between nearest neighbours for the temperature dependences of thermodynamic response functions is analysed. In particular, the predictions of Schottky model are compared with the calculations based on the full energy spectrum.

Hubbard model for a cubic cluster

J. Callaway, D. P. Chen, Yi Zhang

The ground-state and thermodynamic properties of a simple Hubbard Hamiltonian are studied for an eight-site cubic cluster as functions of the number of electrons and the strength of the electron interaction. The ground-state energy and spin are determined, and the excitation spectrum is computed. Thermodynamic properties including the specific heat, the magnetic susceptibility, and spin correlation functions are calculated. Computations are performed both by explicit diagonalization of the Hamiltonian and by Monte Carlo simulation.

Ground-state and thermodynamic properties of the Hubbard model applied to small clusters

J. Callaway, D. P. Chen, R. Tang

The Hubbard Model with nearest-neighbor hopping and one type of orbital is applied to small clusters, with emphasis on an octahedron (six sites). The complete eigenvalue spectrum is calculated. A rather complicated dependence of the spin of the ground state on occupation number, geometry, and model parameters is found. Thermodynamic properties are computed with use of a canonical ensemble. Results are reported for the specific heat, spin susceptibility, and spin-spin correlation functions.

Properties of the one-dimensional half-filled-band extended Hubbard model

Fernando O. Freire, Cláudio Andrade Macedo

With the aim of contributing to a better understanding of the finite-temperature properties of low-dimensional strongly correlated systems we study a one-dimensional half-filled-band extended Hubbard model with a term of exchange interaction between neighboring sites. We analyze the temperature dependence of the specific heat, internal energy, entropy, number of doubly occupied sites, magnetic susceptibility, spin-spin correlation functions, and also investigate a detailed diagram of magnetic correlations. We use the method of small-cluster exact diagonalization calculations with the application of the grand canonical ensemble and of extrapolation techniques to the infinite chain. Our results show that the examined model exhibits a rich structure of magnetic properties due to the competition between the onsite Coulombian repulsion and the exchange interaction.

Magnetic and thermodynamical properties of the simple-cubic Hubbard model

Y. Kakehashi, Hideo Hasegawa

Magnetic and thermodynamical properties of the half-filled Hubbard model on the simple-cubic lattice have been investigated by using the two analytical theories for band magnetism: the single-site spin fluctuation (SSF) theory proposed independently by Hubbard and Hasegawa and the Gutzwiller-type variational approach (VA) developed by Kakehashi and Fulde. We have calculated, as a function of the temperature T and the electron-electron interaction U, the sublattice magnetization, amplitude of local moments, susceptibilities, energy, and entropy, from which the U-T phase diagram is obtained. Our ground-state results, particularly of the VA, are in good agreement with those obtained in the variational Monte Carlo calculations performed by Yokoyama and Shiba. Our finite-temperature calculations are compared with those in the recent Monte Carlo (MC) simulations made by Hirsch. It is shown that, as far as local quantities such as the amplitude of local moments and the Curie constants are concerned, our results are consistent with the MC results. It is realized, however, that the antiferromagnetic correlation is much overestimated in a small 4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4 cluster in Hirsch's MC simulation, yielding N\'eel temperatures, ${T}_{N}$, about 70% higher than those in the mean-field-type theories of the SSF and VA approaches.

Quantum critical behavior and thermodynamics of the repulsive one-dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field

Ovidiu I. Pâţu, Andreas Klümper, Angela Foerster

Even though the Hubbard model is one of the most fundamental models of highly correlated electrons, analytical and numerical data describing its thermodynamics at nonzero magnetization are relatively scarce. We present a detailed investigation of the thermodynamic properties for the one-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model in the presence of an arbitrary magnetic field for all values of the filling fraction and temperatures as low as $T\ensuremath{\sim}0.005t.$ Our analysis is based on the system of integral equations derived in the quantum transfer matrix framework. We determine the critical exponents of the quantum phase transitions and also provide analytical derivations for some of the universal functions characterizing the thermodynamics in the vicinities of the quantum critical points. Extensive numerical data for the specific heat, susceptibility, compressibility, and entropy are reported. The experimentally relevant double occupancy presents an interesting doubly nonmonotonic temperature dependence at intermediate values of the interaction strength and also at large repulsion and magnetic fields close to the critical value. The susceptibility in zero magnetic field has a logarithmic singularity at low temperatures for all filling factors similar to the behavior of the same quantity in the spin-1/2 isotropic Heisenberg model. We determine the density profiles for a harmonically trapped system and show that while the total density profile seems to depend mainly on the value of chemical potential at the center of the trap the distribution of phases in the inhomogeneous system changes dramatically as we increase the magnetic field.
