Anomalous Self-Energy Features in the 2D Hubbard Model

Adolfo Avella, Francesco Paolo Mancini

Abstract

The electronic self-energy of the two-dimensional Hubbard model, computed in the non-crossing approximation within the composite operator method, is studied as a function of frequency as well as temperature at the Fermi surface, for a value of doping at which the pseudogap is already well developed.For values of momentum belonging to the phantom arc of the Fermi surface, both dependences show anomalous power law behavior in contrast to that expected from the Fermi liquid theory.

ANISOTROPIC PSEUDOGAP IN THE HALF-FILLING TWO-DIMENSIONAL HUBBARD MODEL AT FINITE TEMPERATURE

Taiichiro Saikawa, Álvaro Antônio Bandeira Ferraz

We have studied the pseudogap formation in the single-particle spectra of the half-filling two-dimensional Hubbard model. Using a Green's function with the one-loop self-energy correction of the spin and charge fluctuations, we have numerically calculated the self-energy, the spectral function, and the density of states in the weak-coupling regime at finite temperatures. Pseudogap formations have been observed in both the density of states and the spectral function at the Fermi level. The pseudogap in the spectral function is explained by the non-Fermi-liquid-like nature of the self-energy. The anomalous behavior in the self-energy is caused by both the strong antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation and the nesting condition on the non-interacting Fermi surface. In the present approximation, we find a logarithmic singularity in the integrand of the self-energy imaginary part. The pseudogap in the spectral function is highly momentum dependent on the Fermi surface. This anisotropy of the pseudogap is produced by the flatness of the band dispersion around the saddle point rather than the nesting condition on the Fermi level.

Anisotropic pseudogap in the half-filling 2-d Hubbard model at finite T

In the present approximation, we find a logarithmic singularity in the integrand of the imaginary part of the self-energy. Concerning the energy dependence of the spectral function and the self-energy, two theorems are proved. They give a necessary condition in the self-energy to produce the pseudogap at the Fermi level. The pseudogap in the spectral function is highly momentum dependent on the Fermi surface. It opens initially in the $(\pm π,0)$, $(0,\pm π)$ regions as the normal state pseudogap observed in the high-$T_c$ superconductors and if the interaction is increased, it spreads to other Fermi surface sectors. The anisotropy of the pseudogap is produced by the low-energy enhancement of the spin excitation around ${\bf Q}=(π,π)$ and the flatness of the band dispersion around the saddle point.

Pseudogap, non-Fermi-liquid behavior, and particle-hole asymmetry in the 2D Hubbard model

A. Liebsch, Ning-Hua Tong

The effect of doping in the two-dimensional Hubbard model is studied within finite temperature exact diagonalization combined with cluster dynamical mean field theory. By employing a mixed basis involving cluster sites and bath molecular orbitals for the projection of the lattice Green's function onto 2x2 clusters, a considerably more accurate description of the low frequency properties of the self-energy is achieved than in a pure site picture. The transition from Fermi-liquid to non-Fermi-liquid behavior for decreasing hole doping is studied as a function of Coulomb energy, next-nearest neighbor hopping, and temperature. In particular, the self-energy component Sigma_X associated with X=(pi,0) is shown to exhibit an onset of non-Fermi-liquid behavior as the hole doping decreases below a critical value delta_c. The imaginary part of Sigma_X(omega) then develops a collective mode above E_F, which exhibits a distinct dispersion with doping. Accordingly, the real part of Sigma_X(omega) has a positive slope above E_F, giving rise to an increasing particle-hole asymmetry as the system approaches the Mott transition. This behavior is consistent with the removal of spectral weight from electron states close to E_F and the opening of a pseudogap which increases with decreasing doping. The phase diagram reveals that delta_c = 0.15 ... 0.20 for various system parameters. For electron doping, the collective mode of Sigma_X(omega) and the concomitant pseudogap are located below the Fermi energy which is consistent the removal of spectral weight from hole states just below E_F. The critical doping which marks the onset of non-Fermi-liquid behavior, is systematically smaller than for hole doping.

The 2D Hubbard model and the pseudogap: a COM(SCBA) study

Adolfo Avella, Ferdinando Mancini

The two-dimensional Hubbard model is studied within the composite operator method (COM) with the electronic self-energy computed in the self-consistent Born approximation (SCBA). The main idea of the COM is to describe interacting electrons in terms of the composite elementary excitations appearing in the system owing to strong correlations; the residual interactions among these excitations are treated within the SCBA. By analysing the spectral function A(k,ω) on varying the filling, we find, at high doping, the ordinary Fermi-liquid behaviour of a weakly interacting metal and, at low doping, the opening of a pseudogap, as reported for cuprates superconductors.

Non-Fermi-liquid behavior due to short-range order

Ross H. McKenzie, David Scarratt

An exactly soluble one-dimensional model of electrons interacting with order-parameter fluctuations associated with short-range order is considered. The energy and momentum dependence of the electronic self-energy and spectral function are calculated and found to exhibit non-Fermi-liquid features similar to that seen for the two-dimensional Hubbard model: a pseudogap, shadow bands, anomalies in the self-energy, and breakdown of the quasiparticle picture. Deviations from Fermi-liquid behavior are largest close to the Fermi surface and as the correlation length increases.

Finite-temperature exact diagonalization cluster dynamical mean-field study of the two-dimensional Hubbard model: Pseudogap, non-Fermi-liquid behavior, and particle-hole asymmetry

A. Liebsch, Ning-Hua Tong

The effect of doping in the two-dimensional Hubbard model is studied within finite-temperature exact diagonalization combined with cluster dynamical mean-field theory. By employing a mixed basis involving cluster sites and bath molecular orbitals for the projection of the lattice Green's function onto $2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}2$ clusters, a considerably more accurate description of the low-frequency properties of the self-energy is achieved than in a pure site picture. To evaluate the phase diagram, the transition from Fermi-liquid to non-Fermi-liquid behavior for decreasing hole doping is studied as a function of Coulomb energy, next-nearest-neighbor hopping, and temperature. The self-energy component ${\ensuremath{\Sigma}}_{X}$ associated with $X=(\ensuremath{\pi},0)$ is shown to develop a collective mode above ${E}_{F}$, whose energy and strength exhibits a distinct dispersion with doping. This low-energy excitation gives rise to non-Fermi-liquid behavior as the hole doping decreases below a critical value ${\ensuremath{\delta}}_{c}$, and to an increasing particle-hole asymmetry, in agreement with recent photoemission data. This behavior is consistent with the removal of spectral weight from electron states above ${E}_{F}$ and the opening of a pseudogap, which increases with decreasing doping. The phase diagram reveals that ${\ensuremath{\delta}}_{c}\ensuremath{\approx}0.15\dots{}0.20$ for various system parameters. For electron doping, the collective mode of ${\ensuremath{\Sigma}}_{X}(\ensuremath{\omega})$ and the concomitant pseudogap are located below the Fermi energy, which is consistent with the removal of spectral weight from the hole states just below ${E}_{F}$. The critical doping, which marks the onset of non-Fermi-liquid behavior, is systematically smaller than for hole doping.
