High-temperature thermodynamics of the Hubbard model: An exact numerical solution

Pieter B. Visscher

Published Aug 1, 1974• 15 citations
Publisher

Abstract

A new first-principles method for numerically calculating finite-temperature properties of quantum many-body systems is described. It is used to compute the thermodynamic properties and magnetic correlations of the Hubbard model, with negligible error at temperatures near the bandwidth or above. Results for the half-filled band and a simple cubic or one-dimensional lattice confirm the existence of a high-temperature peak in the specific heat which has been associated with a smooth but rapid change in conductivity. Correlations calculated for the non-half-filled band simple cubic Hubbard model suggest condensation, an entirely unexpected phenomenon whose existence is shown (by unrelated methods) in Paper II.

Thermodynamic Properties of the One-Dimensional Half-Filled-Band Hubbard Model

Hiroyuki Shiba, Philip A. Pincus

In order to investigate the thermal properties (specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, entropy, internal energy, and some correlation functions) of the one-dimensional half-filled-band Hubbard model, we have studied linear chains and rings containing two to six atoms, by performing machine calculations. Supplementing the low-temperature behavior obtained from the exact solution for the infinite chain by Lieb and Wu, our results should be suggestive of the properties of the infinite system throughout the entire temperature domain. It is shown that when the ratio of the correlation energy $U$ to the total width $\ensuremath{\Delta}$ of the band of single-particle excitations is larger than 1, the specific heat has two peaks. The high-temperature peak arises from the gradual metal-insulator transition (or the gradual formation of local moments), while the low-temperature peak is associated with the antiferromagnetic short-range ordering. When $\frac{U}{\ensuremath{\Delta}}$ becomes small, the two peaks merge into one. This picture is consistent with all other thermal properties, including correlation functions. The high-temperature properties are compared with the results predicted by Hubbard's approximate theory based on the truncation of the equations of motion of the Green's functions.

Thermodynamic Properties of the One-Dimensional Half-Filled-Band Hubbard Model. II

Hiroyuki Shiba

In order to determine finite-temperature properties of the infinite one-dimensional Hubbard model for the half-filled band, finite systems such as chains with 2 to 5 atoms and rings with 4 and 6 atoms are studied with the application of the grand canonical ensemble. The obtained temperature dependence of the specific heat, the entropy, the magnetic susceptibility and some correlation functions clearly shows a rearrangement of the electronic state of the system with the increase of the strength of the Coulomb interaction relative to the transfer integral. In the light of our new results the functional integral approach recently proposed by Kimball and Schrieffer as well as Hubbard's approximate theory is examined.

Static thermodynamic properties of the linear half-filled-band Hubbard model

W. A. Seitz, Daniel Klein

Low-temperature static thermodynamic properties of the linear half-filled-band Hubbard model are computed via a numerical-perturbative method which applies near the atomic limit. Curves for the internal energy, entropy, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility are reported.

MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF HUBBARD MODEL CLASSIC.

Adelino dos Santos Filho

In this work we obtain the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of the classical Hubbard model. This one is easier to handle than the original Hubbard model, and it maintains fundamental aspects like charge and particle-hole symmetry. We find the relationship between this and the Ising model. For square and simple cubic lattices, the thermodynamic properties and phase diagrams were calculated by Monte Carlo method. We show the behavior of internal energy, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility as a function of the temperature. For the considered lattices, the ground state is anti-ferromagnetic. The Néel temperatures were found as a function of the electronic interaction in the case of half-filled band. In the limit of vanishing of diverging interaction, our results agree with the Ising model.

Field and temperature dependence of thermodynamic and correlation functions of Hubbard model

Charles C. Chen, Minghui Huang

The thermodynamic and correlation functions for one- and three- dimensional systems described by the half-filled band Hubbard Hamiltonians are evaluated in the pair-approximation of cluster variation method. The energy, specific heat, magnetization, susceptibility and various equilibrium correlation functions are computed as functions of temperature as well as the external magnetic field for different values of coulomb energies. Our solutions correspond to Bethe approximation in which the relevant pair-correlation functions are included in our formulation. It is observed that the chemical potential for the half-filled band is exactly half of the coulomb energy at all temperatures, irrespective of the value of the applied magnetic field.
