THE HUBBARD U=∞ MODEL IN ONE DIMENSION - THE SLAVE BOSON METHOD AS ALTERNATIVE BOSONIZATION SCHEME

D. Schmeltzer

Published Jan 1, 1991• 2 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The Hubbard U=∞ in one dimension is equivalent to a non-interacting spinless fermion in a gauge field. The gauge field induced by spin fluctuations is described by a gas of instantons. This gas is in the plasma phase which leads to the decoupling of spin and charge at large distances.

HubbardU=∞ model in one dimension: The slave-boson method as an alternative bosonization scheme

D. Schmeltzer

The Hubbard U=\ensuremath{\infty} in one dimension is equivalent to a noninteracting spinless fermion in a gauge field. The gauge field induced by spin fluctuations is described by a gas of instantons. This gas is in the plasma phase, which leads to the decoupling of spin and charge at large distances. These results are used to find the charge-change correlations and the Wowe-renormalization exponent \ensuremath{\theta}.

Slave-spin approach to the strongly correlated systems

Mardani, Masoud, Mohammad-Sadegh Vaezi, Abolhassan Vaezi

In this paper, we develop a new type of slave particle method which is similar to the slave rotor model except that the quantum rotor is substituted by a spin one slave particle. The spin-one slave particle itself can be represented in terms of Schwinger bosons/fermions. This approach is more conveniently applicable to the strongly correlated Hamiltonians with on-site Hubbard interaction and resolves the limitations of using the slave rotor model as well as the Anderson-Zou slave particle technique. For instance, the mean-field parameters of the slave spin method do not vanish above the Mott transition and this approach is smoothly connected to the non-interacting limit. As an example, we study the phase diagram of the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model using our current approach. In the absence of the spin-orbit interaction, the Mott transition occurs at $U_c ~ 3 t_1$. Several aspects of the slave spin method, its gauge theory and various possible mean-field states associated with this approach have been discussed.

BOSONIZATION OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL HUBBARD MODEL

Yu-Liang Liu, Zhao-Bin Su

By analyzing one-dimensional (1D) chains arranged into a two-dimensional (2D) mesh and considering electrons tunneling from chain to chain at the intersection points, we use the 1D bosonization methods to describe the 2D Hubbard model, and find that the 2D Hubbard model can be completely represented by the spin and charge fields. It may provide evidence for spin and charge separation in some 2D quantum systems.

Spin- and charge-rotation invariant approach to the Hubbard model

J. J. Vicente Alvarez, C. A. Balseiro, Hermenegildo Alejandro Ceccatto

We present a slave-boson formulation for the Hubbard model that preserves the spin-rotation and particle-hole symmetries of the paramagnetic phase at half filling. Fermion and boson fields are treated on an equal footing in a functional integral formulation. We show that, while in two and three dimensions there is a metal-insulator transition as the interaction U increases, in one dimension our approach always gives an insulating state. Short-range spin-spin correlations are included at the saddle-point level for all values of U, giving a good description of the insulating state. We show that the energy gap in the one-particle spectrum increases from zero as (U-${\mathit{U}}_{\mathit{c}}$${)}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\alpha}}}$, where ${\mathit{U}}_{\mathit{c}}$ is the critical value of the on-site interaction and the exponent \ensuremath{\alpha} is 1 and 1/2 for 2 and 3 dimensions, respectively. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Gauge theory of the Hubbard model on honeycomb lattice and its instanton effect

Abolhassan Vaezi, Xiao-Gang Wen

In this paper we investigate possible spin disordered phase in the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice. Using a slave-particle theory that include the charge fluctuations, we find a meanfield spin disordered phase in a range of on-site repulsion $U$. The spin disordered state is described by gapped fermions coupled to compact U(1) gauge field. We study the confinement/deconfinement problem of the U(1) gauge theory due to the instantons proliferation. We calculate all allowed instanton terms and compute their quantum numbers. It is shown that the meanfield spin disordered phase is unstable. The instantons proliferation induce a translation symmetry breaking.

Supersymmetric approach to the infinite U Hubbard Model

Piers Coleman, C. Pépin

We present a preliminary discussion on the use of supersymmetric representation of the Hubbard operator which unifies the slave boson and slave fermion representations into a single U(1) × SU(1|1) gauge theory to treat the physics of the infinite U Hubbard model. By looking for solutions to the Hamiltonian in which the spins can exist as both condensed ordered moments and as mobile charged carriers, we examine the possibility of a Nagaoka ferromagnetic phase at finite doping with a quantum critical point into the paramagnetic phase. Key words: Hubbard model, Supersymmetry, Ferromagnetism The infinite U Hubbard model[1] is a prototype model for strongly correlated electron systems. Interest in this venerable model has grown in recent times because of its link with one of the basic models of high temperature superconductivity, the t − J model.[2] The infinite U Hubbard model corresponds to the t − J model without antiferromagnetic interactions (J → 0). Despite the absence of antiferromagnetic interactions, evidence from finite temperature Lanzcos studies[3] suggests that many of high temperature properties associated with the cuprate metals are already present in the infinite U Hubbard model. The U = ∞ Hubbard hamiltonian is written HK = − t
