Hubbard model plays a critical role in the study of strongly correlated electron systems. The only available exact solutions of 1-D Hubbard Hamiltonian, obtained through nested Bethe ansatz, show a spin charge decoupling for infinite U when there is no possibility of double occupancy of an electron orbital state. It had been shown that these features can be directly obtained by employing orthofermion algebra. In the present communication, the thermodynamic properties, namely, specific heat and entropy are provided for a 1-D chain and 2-D square lattice using orthofermion approach. It is shown that in 1-D, our results are identical to the known exact results. We have also compared the thermodynamic properties of free fermions and orthofermions in both 1-D and 2-D. Our thermodynamic results, based on orthofermion approach, can be used to ascertain the accuracy of the approximate methods employed in the context of infinite U Hubbard model.

The infinite U Hubbard model, which excludes double occupancy of electrons on a lattice site, can be considered as an exactly solvable non-interacting orthofermion model. We obtained several thermodynamic and transport properties like specific heat, entropy, magnetization, magnetic susceptibility and thermoelectric power for the non-interacting orthofermions. It is found that in one dimension our results coincides with that of known exact results. In case of thermoelectric power, we have also obtained the generalized Heikes formula in high temperature limits and Stafford results at low temperatures. Since the non-interacting orthofermion model is exactly solvable in any dimension, our results can be used as a guide to ascertain the accuracy of the approximations, used to solve the finite U Hubbard model, frequently employed for the study of the strongly correlated electron systems.
We investigate the thermodynamic properties of the Hubbard model on the Bethe lattice with a coordination number of 3 using the thermal canonical tree tensor network method. Our findings reveal two distinct thermodynamic phases: a low-temperature antiferromagnetic phase, where spin SU(2) symmetry is broken, and a high-temperature paramagnetic phase. A key feature of the system is the separation of energy scales for charge and spin excitations, which is reflected in the temperature dependence of thermodynamic quantities and the disparity between spin and charge gaps extracted from their respective susceptibilities. At the critical point, both spin and charge susceptibilities exhibit singularities, suggesting that charge excitations are not fully decoupled from their spin counterparts. Additionally, the double occupancy number exhibits a nonmonotonic temperature dependence, indicative of an entropy-driven Pomeranchuk effect. These results demonstrate that the loopless Bethe lattice effectively captures the essential physics of the Hubbard model while providing a computationally efficient framework for studying strongly correlated electronic systems.
We present results on the thermodynamic quantities, resistivity, and optical conductivity for the Hubbard model on a simple hypercubic lattice in infinite dimensions. Our results for the paramagnetic phase display the features expected from an intuitive analysis of the one-particle spectra and substantiate the similarity of the physics of the Hubbard model to those of heavy-fermion systems. The calculations were performed using an approximate solution to the single-impurity Anderson model, which is the key quantity entering the solution of the Hubbard model in this limit. To establish the quality of this approximation we compare its results, together with those obtained from two other widely used methods, to essentially exact quantum Monte Carlo results.
The thermodynamics of the inhomogeneous one-dimensional repulsive fermionic Hubbard model with parabolic confinement is studied by a density-functional-theory approach, based on Mermin's generalization to finite temperatures. A local-density approximation (LDA), based on exact results for the homogeneous model, is used to approximate the correlation part in the Helmholtz free-energy, comprising the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz LDA (TBALDA). The general presentation of the method is given and some properties of the homogeneous model that are relevant to the DFT approach are analyzed. Extensive comparison between TBALDA and numerical exact diagonalization results for thermodynamic properties of small inhomogeneous chains is discussed. In the remaining, a classical thermodynamic treatment of the confined system is developed with the focus on global properties of large systems. It is observed that, depending on the temperature and specific volume, the system can have its temperature increased under isentropic expansion. Such unusual behavior becomes more pronounced with the increase of the intrasite interaction U and can be understood considering the peculiar behavior of the correlation entropy per site of the Hubbard model around half-filling. A related nonmonotonic variation of the temperature under isentropic change of U is also studied. At the end, the dependence of the double occupancy on temperature and volume per particle is discussed.
We present analytical results of fundamental properties of one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model with a repulsive interaction, ranging from fractional excitations to universal thermodynamics, interaction-driven criticality, correlation functions, Contact susceptibilities and quantum cooling. Using the exact solutions of the Bethe Ansatz equations of the Hubbard model, we first rigorously calculate the gapless spin and charge excitations, exhibiting exotic features of fractionalized spinons and holons. Based on the analysis on the fractional charge and spin excitations, the spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid with only the charge propagation mode is elucidated by the asymptotic of the two-point correlation functions with the help of the conformal field theory. Near quadruple critical point, we then further analytically obtain the thermodynamical properties, dimensionless ratios and scaling functions near quantum phase transitions in terms of chemical potential, magnetic field and interaction. In particular, we determine additivity rules of spin and charge susceptibilities, and derive explicit forms of thermodynamics of spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid. Finally, in order to capture deeper insight into the Mott insulator and interaction driven criticality, we further study the double occupancy and its associated Contact and Contact susceptibilities through which an adiabatic cooling scheme upon the quantum criticality is introduced.
Abstract We present analytical results of the fundamental properties of the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model with a repulsive interaction. The new model results with arbitrary external fields include: (I) using the exact solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations of the Hubbard model, we first rigorously calculate the gapless spin and charge excitations, exhibiting exotic features of fractionalized spinons and holons. We then investigate the gapped excitations in terms of the spin string and the k − Λ string bound states at arbitrary driving fields, showing subtle differences in spin magnons and charge η -pair excitations. (II) For a high-density and high spin magnetization region, i.e. near the quadruple critical point, we further analytically obtain the thermodynamic properties, dimensionless ratios and scaling functions near quantum phase transitions. (III) Importantly, we give the general scaling functions at quantum criticality for arbitrary filling and interaction strength. These can directly apply to other integrable models. (IV) Based on the fractional excitations and the scaling laws, the spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid (SILL) with only the charge propagation mode is elucidated by the asymptotic of the two-point correlation functions with the help of conformal field theory. We also, for the first time, obtain the analytical results of the thermodynamics for the SILL. (V) Finally, to capture deeper insights into the Mott insulator and interaction-driven criticality, we further study the double occupancy and propose its associated contact and contact susceptibilities, through which an adiabatic cooling scheme based upon quantum criticality is proposed. In this scenario, we build up general relations among arbitrary external- and internal-potential-driven quantum phase transitions, providing a comprehensive understanding of quantum criticality. Our methods offer rich perspectives of quantum integrability and offer promising guidance for future experiments with interacting electrons and ultracold atoms, both with and without a lattice.
