Linear-in-temperature resistivity is a hallmark for strange metallic transport, and appears universally in many strongly correlated electron systems. However, the focus on the longitudinal channel often overshadows the profound microscopic insights contained within the transverse response. Here, we utilize numerically exact determinantal quantum Monte Carlo simulations of the doped Hubbard model in a magnetic field to calculate longitudinal and transverse transport. We demonstrate that while the resistivity is robustly $T$ -linear across parameter sets, the Hall response is highly sensitive to particle-hole asymmetry, Fermi surface topology, and many-body correlation effects. Specifically, the combination of these effects determine a crossover scale in which the system becomes quantum-coherent, and is reflected in the Hall conductivity. Our results demonstrate that while the $T$ -linearity in resistivity appears universal, the Hall response reveals a crossover from semi-classical to quantum-coherent transport otherwise masked in the longitudinal channel.Linear-in-temperature resistivity is a hallmark for strange metallic transport, and appears universally in many strongly correlated electron systems.

Linear response and the quantized Hall effect

T. McMullen

A linear response expression for the Hall conductance ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{\mathrm{xy}}$ of interacting two-dimensional electrons in a strong magnetic field is derived. When the system is dissipationless, ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{\mathrm{xy}}$ can be written solely in terms of the density-density response function ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{\mathrm{nn}}$(q\ensuremath{\rightarrow}) of the electron liquid. Thus, a specific behavior of ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{\mathrm{nn}}$(q\ensuremath{\rightarrow}) is required on a Hall plateau. This behavior is ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{\mathrm{nn}}$(q\ensuremath{\rightarrow})\ensuremath{\propto} ${q}^{2}$ for small wave vector q, with a proportionality constant given by the Hall quantum number.A linear response expression for the Hall conductance ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{\mathrm{xy}}$ of interacting two-dimensional electrons in a strong magnetic field is derived.

Exploring frustration effects of strongly interacting bosons via the Hall response

Catalin-Mihai Halati, Thierry Giamarchi

We investigate the Hall response of hardcore bosonic atoms on a triangular ladder in a magnetic field. To access the dynamical properties of this many-body quantum system, we employ matrix product states numerical methods. We show that the behavior of the Hall polarization, both in its saturation value and in the short-time dynamics, correlates with the features of the underlying phase diagram, which stem from the interplay of interactions and geometric frustration. This paves the way to employ the Hall response as a sensitive probe of many-body chiral quantum phases in strongly correlated materials.We investigate the Hall response of hardcore bosonic atoms on a triangular ladder in a magnetic field.
