Generalized random-phase approximation in the theory of strongly correlated systems

Abstract

The Hubbard model in the limit of strong Coulomb interaction (the (t-J) model) is studied by the diagram technique for Hubbard operators. The generalized random-phase approximation (GRPA) is formulated as an approximation taking into account electron loop-type diagrams. Within the framework of this approximation, both the dynamic magnetic and dielectric susceptibilities are calculated for a wide interval of electron concentrations, 0<n<1. The magnetic susceptibility shows a crossover in the magnetic behaviour of the system from pure itinerant magnetism to magnetism with localized magnetic moments. The crossover occurs at a critical point, nc, when the chemical potential for electrons of the lower Hubbard band changes sign. Magnetic phase diagrams are constructed on the (t/U, n) plane at T=0 for different types of crystal lattices. The behaviour of magnetic phases with temperature is also studied. The GRPA leads to a too drastic crossover, especially at low temperatures, because of insufficient allowance for the charge and spin fluctuations on a site. Summation of special diagram series shows that the Gaussian fluctuations of the effective electric and magnetic fields lead to a smoother picture of the crossover.

Theory of Strongly Correlated Systems in the Limit of Large On-Site Coulomb Repulsion

A strongly correlated electronic system is studied within the framework of the t-J model with the help of diagram technique for the Hub- bard X-operators.The summing of some series of diagrams is suggested, corresponding to the following three types of approximations: the generalized random phase approximation, the mean field approximation, and the low density approximation.In generalized random phase approximation the dynamic magnetic susceptibility of paramagnetic phase is calculated, and boundaries of stability of this phase are found on the plane of Hamiltonian parameters and electron concentration n.It is shown that at some critical concentration nc the system undergoes a crossover from the itinerant magnetism (n < n c ) to the magnetism with localized magnetic moments (n > n c ). Simultaneously, the system transfers from the Fermi-liquid beh a v i o u r t o t h e r e g i m e o f s t r o n g e l e c t r o n c o r r e l a t i o n s w i t h n o n q u a s i p a r t i c l e states.In mean field approximation equations for the order parameters were derived and phase transitions temperatures in a ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases were obtained.In low density approximation a state of the saturated ferromagnetism was investigated and a critical concentration n $ was calculated when the nonsaturated ferromagnetism follows the saturated ferromagnetism.

A THEORY OF FERROMAGNETISM IN THE HUBBARD MODEL WITH INFINITE COULOMB INTERACTION

Yu. A. Izyumov, B. M. Letfulov, E. V. Shipitsyn +1 more

On the basis of a regular perturbation theory in the form of diagrammatic technique with X-operators, a ferromagnetic state in the Hubbard model with infinite on-site Coulomb interaction U is studied for a wide range of electron concentration n. Treating the kinetic energy of electrons as perturbation, we get the exact graphic representations for three Green’s functions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for electrons with spin ↑ and ↓ (spontaneous magnetic moment is in ↑ direction) and [Formula: see text] for spin waves. All of them are expressed through the unique system of four-point and three-point vertex parts for effective electron-magnon and electron-electron interactions. These vertex parts are calculated in two approximations: a low-density approximation for n≪1 or nh=1–n≫1, and the generalized random-phase approximation (GRPA), which was suggested earlier by us for the description of paramagnetic phase in this model. An important result in both cases is the understanding of essential difference of electron states with spin ↑ and ↓. The state for ↑ has coherent character in all region of electron concentration (n>nc) where a ferromagnetic state exists, while the state for spin ↓ has mixed characters including both coherent and incoherent contribution. For the saturated ferromagnetism (n>ns) when nh≪1, [Formula: see text] is an entirely incoherent (nonquasiparticle) state. Appearance of incoherent state is probably a general property of strongly correlated systems distinguishing its behavior from the Fermi liquid. We show also that the Hubbard-I approximation has no region of applicability for the electron with spin ↓ in a ferromagnet and we found a new factor describing the correlation-narrowing of ↓ spin electron band. Green’s function [Formula: see text] calculated in two different limits n≪1 and nh≪1, are jointed together to allow us to calculate ns which lies in the intermediate concentration regime. For simple cubic lattice we found ns=0.87. In the limit nh≪1 our results reduce to the earlier known ones, including Nagaoka’s result for the spin wave energy. We point out the way to construct a rigorous theory for ferromagnetic state in the intermediate range of electron concentration. In the conclusion several important problems are discussed in connection to the continuation of the present work.

A diagram technique for Hubbard operators: the magnetic phase diagram in the (t-J) model

Yu. A. Izyumov, B. M. Letfulov

The authors construct a diagram technique for the (t-J) model Hamiltonian expressed in terms of Hubbard operators. This technique combines features of the diagram technique for normal Fermi systems and those for the Heisenberg model with spin operators. The general graphic structure is identified for one-particle Green functions composed of Hubbard operators. The (t-J) model has logical consistency, is reasonably simple and can serve as a working tool in exploring various properties of this model. To an approximation that resides in summing ladder-type diagrams with antiparallel electron lines, the authors calculate the system's magnetic susceptibility. A formula is derived which reflects the dual nature of the magnetic states in the Hubbard model; this duality manifests itself in the presence of a localised and an itinerant contribution in the bare susceptibility. The authors trace how the relative value of the localised contribution varies as the electron concentration is increased from 0 to 1. With n>2/3, the paramagnetic phase of the system becomes unstable with respect to the occurrence of ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic ordering. A magnetic phase diagram for zero temperature is constructed on the (t/U, n) plane.

Dynamic magnetic susceptibility in the t–J model

Evgeniy V. Kuz’min

The t–J model with a prohibition of “doubles” (doubly occupied sites) in the lower Hubbard band and holes in the upper band is considered in the regime of strong electron correlations. The specific features of the electronic states are described. An expression is obtained for the transverse dynamic susceptibility χ as a function of wave vector q and frequency ω in the random phase approximation (RPA) in the metallic state of the system, and the static susceptibility (ω=0) is analyzed in the limits q=0 and q=Q=(π,π) in a square lattice as a function of the electron density n. The insulating limit (n→1) is described as a spin liquid (SL) state. An expression for the magnetic susceptibility is proposed which unifies the RPA and the SL concept in the presence of site percolation. It is shown that in a certain concentration region the static susceptibility is negative (i.e., a diamagnetic effect), which indicates the possibility of a superconducting state with an exchange mechanism of pairing.

Spin fluctuation renormalizations of normal and superconducting state properties int − J*-model

Valerii Vladimirovich Val'kov, A. A. Golovnya

The effect of spin-fluctuation scattering processes on the region of the superconducting phase in the strongly correlated electrons (Hubbard fermions) has been investigated by the diagram technique for Hubbard operators. It is shown that spin fluctuations in the one-loop approximation for the − t' − t − J*- model taking into account long-range hoppings and three-center interactions are reflected by components of the strength operator. In this approximation for the d-type symmetry of the order parameter for the superconducting phase a system of infinite integral equations has been derived. Obtained dependencies of critical temperature on the electron concentrations show that joint effect of long-range hoppings, three-center interactions, and dynamical spin-fluctuation processes leads to strong renormalization of the superconducting phase region. It was shown that these processes essentially modify distribution functions of Hubbard fermions in normal phase.

Phase transitions and exact ground-state properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field

Chia‐Wei Yang, ARMEN N. KOCHARIAN, Y. L. Chiang

The exact phase diagrams of the one-dimensional Hubbard model, both attractive and repulsive, in the presence of an arbitrary magnetic field h for various electron concentrations n and on-site interaction strengths U <0 or U >0 are calculated and investigated. The exact ground-state properties, namely, the ground-state energy, the average spin (magnetization), the concentration of the doubly occupied sites, the kinetic energy, the chemical potential, the spin (magnetic) susceptibility and the charge compressibility, are calculated and examined over a wide range of interaction strengths U for various h and n . It is found that the spin susceptibility at half-filling is non-analytic and changes discontinuously as U →0. The exact theory shows the absence of a charge energy gap in the U ⩽0 region for all n and provides, for the chemical potential, the rigorous upper and lower bounds for half-filled and empty bands respectively. The analytical results derived for the weak-coupling limit and asymptotic expansions for strong coupling are in full agreement with the numerical calculations.
