A Lattice-Gas Model Equivalent to the t-J Model

Abstract

A lattice gas model equivalent to the t-J model is proposed, in which the spins are represented by Bose particles with spin and the holes by Fermi particles with spin. In the zero hole density, the model reduces to a lattice gas of Bose particles with spin, equivalent to the Heisenberg model, where the average occupation number of a lattice site is unity, while a lattice site can accomodate two particles.

Classical Heisenberg lattice-gas model: Thermodynamics and phase diagrams

Hassan Chamati, Silvano Romano

The present paper addresses a simple lattice gas model, consisting of particles that carry a three-component classical spin (i.e., a three-component unit vector), and associated with a simple-cubic lattice; each site can host one particle at most, thus implicitly allowing for hard-core repulsion; the pair interaction, restricted to nearest neighbors, is ferromagnetic and isotropic in spin space. We have studied thermodynamic properties and phase diagrams of the model by means of mean-field and two-site cluster treatments, and identified the tricritical points. Note that the fluctuating occupation numbers give rise to additional fluidlike observables in comparison with the usual saturated-lattice situation. The case of zero chemical potential has been investigated by grand-canonical Monte Carlo simulations, so as to obtain a quantitative test of the named approximations, as well as a more detailed physical characterization. The mean-field treatment was found to yield only qualitative agreement with simulation results, and the two-site cluster treatment recognizably improved upon it. Extensive simulations point to a second-order transition, whose universality class was found to be the same as its saturated-lattice counterpart.

Properties of Bose gas in a lattice model (strong interaction)

É. G. Batyev

The doubts concerning validity of gas approximation for strong interaction (for example, hard spheres) are expressed. A contradictory example - a Bose system in a lattice model - is considered. Namely, the X-Y model for spin 1/2 is taken. A state with spins directed downwards is considered to be vacuum with respect to the particles. An inverse spin (+1/2) corresponds to a particle. There is an usual band spectrum (one band) for a single particle. A trial function is written for a multiple particle system. This function was shown to be a good one within a macroscopic limit, when the particle and lattice site numbers tend to infinity (the ratio of energy standard deviation to average energy tends to zero). A result within the gas limit (particle number is small compared with the lattice site number) is compared with that obtained via generally accepted approach.

Extended Bose Hubbard model of interacting bosonic atoms in optical lattices: From superfluidity to density waves

G. Mazzarella, S. M. Giampaolo, Fabrizio Illuminati

For systems of interacting, ultracold spin-zero neutral bosonic atoms, harmonically trapped and subject to an optical lattice potential, we derive an Extended Bose Hubbard (EBH) model by developing a systematic expansion for the Hamiltonian of the system in powers of the lattice parameters and of a scale parameter, the lattice attenuation factor. We identify the dominant terms that need to be retained in realistic experimental conditions, up to nearest-neighbor interactions and nearest-neighbor hoppings conditioned by the on-site occupation numbers. In the mean field approximation, we determine the free energy of the system and study the phase diagram both at zero and at finite temperature. At variance with the standard on site Bose Hubbard model, the zero-temperature phase diagram of the EBH model possesses a dual structure in the Mott insulating regime. Namely, for specific ranges of the lattice parameters, a density wave phase characterizes the system at integer fillings, with domains of alternating mean occupation numbers that are the atomic counterparts of the domains of staggered magnetizations in an antiferromagnetic phase. We show as well that in the EBH model, a zero-temperature quantum phase transition to pair superfluidity is, in principle, possible, but completely suppressed at the lowest order in the lattice attenuation factor. Finally, we determine the possible occurrence of the different phases as a function of the experimentally controllable lattice parameters.

COMPUTER SIMULATION EVIDENCE FOR A BEREZHINSKIĪ –KOSTERLITZ–THOULESS-LIKE TRANSITION IN A TWO-DIMENSIONAL LATTICE-GAS MODEL

Silvano Romano

We have considered a classical lattice-gas model, consisting of a two-dimensional lattice Z2, each site of which hosts at most one two-component unit vector; particles occupying pairs of nearest-neighbouring sites interact via the ferromagnetic potential [Formula: see text] where νj=0,1 denotes occupation numbers, uj are the unit vectors (classical spins) and ∊ is a positive constant setting energy and temperature scales; the total Hamiltonian is given by [Formula: see text] where ∑{j<k} denotes sum over all distinct nearest-neighbouring pairs of lattice sites. The saturated-lattice version of this model, where all sites are occupied, supports the well-known Berezhinskiĭ–Kosterlitz–Thouless transition; we report here a simulation study, carried out for both μ= 0.1 and μ=-0.2, showing evidence of a transition of this kind, in broad qualitative agreement with previous Renormalization-Group studies.

Phase diagram of ultracold atoms in optical lattices: Comparative study of slave fermion and slave boson approaches to Bose-Hubbard model

Yue Yu, S. T. Chui

We perform a comparative study of the finite temperature behavior of ultracold Bose atoms in optical lattices by the slave fermion and the slave boson approaches to the Bose-Hubbard model. The phase diagram of the system is presented. Although both approaches are equivalent without approximations, the mean field theory based on the slave fermion technique is quantitatively more appropriate. Conceptually, the slave fermion approach automatically excludes the double occupancy of two identical fermions on the same lattice site. By comparing to known results in limiting cases, we find the slave fermion approach better than the slave boson approach. For example, in the non-interacting limit, the critical temperature of the superfluid-normal liquid transition calculated by the slave fermion approach is closer to the well-known ideal Bose gas result. At zero-temperature limit of the critical interaction, strength from the slave fermion approach is also closer to that from the direct calculation using a zero-temperature mean field theory.
