Phase diagram of a generalizedt-Jmodel: Renormalization-group approach
Sergio Alejandro Cannas, Constantino Tsallis
Abstract
A generalized t-J Hamiltonian is analyzed within the framework of a quantum real-space renormalization group. Besides the usual hopping (t), exchange (J), and chemical-potential (\ensuremath{\mu}) terms, the Hamiltonian contains a nearest-neighbor charge interaction term and is invariant under the renormalization. The finite-temperature phase diagram of the d=2 and d=3 model is calculated in the full range of the parameters. Our results show that many of the critical properties of the La- and Y-based high-${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$ superconductors can be explained by the present model.
