Persistent currents in mesoscopic rings: A numerical and renormalization group study

V. Meden, Ulrich Schollwöck

The persistent current in a lattice model of a one-dimensional interacting electron system is systematically studied using a complex version of the density-matrix renormalization group algorithm and the functional renormalization group method. We mainly focus on the situation where a single impurity is included in the ring penetrated by a magnetic flux. Due to the interplay of the electron-electron interaction and the impurity the persistent current in a system of N lattice sites vanishes faster than $1/N.$ Only for very large systems and large impurities our results are consistent with the Bosonization prediction obtained for an effective field theory. The results from the density-matrix renormalization group and the functional renormalization group agree well for interactions as large as half the bandwidth, even though as an approximation in the latter method the flow of the two-particle vertex is neglected. This confirms that the functional renormalization group method is a very powerful tool to investigate correlated electron systems. The method will become very useful for the theoretical description of the electronic properties of small conducting ring molecules.

Persistent current and Drude weight for the one-dimensional Hubbard model from current lattice density functional theory

A. Akande, S. Sanvito

The Bethe-Ansatz local density approximation (LDA) to lattice density functional theory (LDFT) for the one-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model is extended to current-LDFT (CLDFT). The transport properties of mesoscopic Hubbard rings threaded by a magnetic flux are then systematically investigated by this scheme. In particular we present calculations of ground state energies, persistent currents and Drude weights for both a repulsive homogeneous and a single impurity Hubbard model. Our results for the ground state energies in the metallic phase compares favorably well with those obtained with numerically accurate many-body techniques. Also the dependence of the persistent currents on the Coulomb and the impurity interaction strength, and on the ring size are all well captured by LDA-CLDFT. Our study demonstrates that CLDFT is a powerful tool for studying one-dimensional correlated electron systems with high accuracy and low computational costs.

Persistent current and Drude weight for the one-dimensional Hubbard model from current lattice density functional theory

As its computational overheads are rather modest, we propose this method as a tool for studying problems where both disorder and interaction are present.
