Exact diagonalization scheme for the degenerate two-orbital Hubbard model on a ring

Abstract

The two-orbital degenerate Hubbard model proves to be a powerful tool in the investigation of several 3 d and 4 d transition metal oxides where orbital degeneracy is known to play a crucial role. We present here a finite-size cluster study of this model where an exact numerical diagonalization procedure is used, based on the implementation of the symmetries generated by the spin, the pairing and the orbital pseudospin operators. The technique is then applied to the solution of the model on a four-site ring, and an explicit comparison is presented between the behavior of the spin, charge and orbital gaps as the on-site Coulomb repulsion is varied.

High-spin magnetic states in the two-orbital Hubbard model on a tetrahedron

Alfonso Romano, Canio Noce, Maria Emilia Amendola

We present a study of the two-orbital degenerate Hubbard model in which the exact numerical solution on a regular tetrahedron is obtained via suitable implementation of the symmetries generated by the spin, the pairing and the orbital pseudospin operators. In particular, we show that a large variety of high-spin magnetic ground states can develop away from half filling, depending on the values of the electron density and the parameters of the model. As the tetrahedron is the simplest finite-size cluster where hopping processes connect all pairs of sites with constant probability, the study is extended by providing the exact analytical solution of the model on an infinite lattice in the unconstrained hopping limit.

Excitation gaps in the orbitally degenerate Hubbard model

Maria Emilia Amendola, Canio Noce

The excitation gaps for the two-orbital degenerate Hubbard model are investigated by applying a generalized version of Lieb's spin-reflection positivity. Combining the known exact results on the ground state, and making use of symmetry properties, we rigorously show that, at half-filling, the charge gaps are always larger than the spin-excitation gaps and properly defined orbital gaps.

Exact Diagonalization Study of Mott Transition in the Hubbard Model on an Anisotropic Triangular Lattice

Takashi Koretsune, Yukitoshi Motome, Akira Furusaki

We study Mott transition in the two-dimensional Hubbard model on an anisotropic triangular lattice. We use the Lanczos exact diagonalization of finite-size clusters up to eighteen sites, and calculate Drude weight, charge gap, double occupancy and spin structure factor. We average these physical quantities over twisted boundary conditions in order to reduce finite-size effects. We find a signature of the Mott transition in the dependence of the Drude weight and/or charge gap on the system size. We also examine the possibility of antiferromagnetic order from the spin structure factor. Combining these information, we propose a ground-state phase diagram which has a nonmagnetic insulating phase between a metallic phase and an insulating phase with antiferromagnetic order. Finally, we compare our results with those reported in the previous theoretical studies, and discuss the possibility of an unconventional insulating state.

A 4-pole approach to the Hubbard model within the Composite Operator Method

Adolfo Avella, Ferdinando Mancini, Gerardo Sica

The Hubbard model is studied within the Composite Operator Method framework in a 4-pole approximation. The operatorial basis is chosen according to both the hierarchy of equations of motion and the exact solution of the model reduced to the minimal cluster (2 sites) where all Hamiltonian terms are still active. Such a recipe amounts to include into the basis not only the two Hubbard operators, which usually take care of the scale of energy related to the on-site Coulomb repulsion U , but also two other non-local operators describing the Hubbard operators dressed by charge, spin and pair fluctuations on the nearest-neighboring sites and addressing the dynamically generated scale of energy related to the exchange J = 4 t 2 / U . The calculation framework is outlined and a very first comparison to numerical simulations, showing very good qualitative and quantitative agreement, is reported. As reference, the results in the 2-pole approximation are also reported and the differences discussed.

Exact diagonalization of a one-dimensional Hubbard model at density ρ=0.4 : Effects of Coulomb repulsions and distant transfer

Fatiha Ouchni, Jürgen Schnack, J. Schulenburg

An extended Hubbard model that includes not only on-site but also intersite Coulomb repulsion and distant transfer is numerically investigated using the exact Lanczos diagonalization method for finite-size systems up to $L=20$ sites. The aim is to study the charge order and unconditional dimerization of a chain at density $\ensuremath{\rho}=0.4$. From the analysis of the spin and charge correlation functions, we deduce the formation of a dimer insulating state which is a Wigner lattice-type charge ordered state. The next-nearest-neighbor hopping ${t}_{2}$ enhances the intradimer correlations and weakens the interdimer correlations. Implications for the $\mathrm{Cu}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ chains in ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{14}{\mathrm{Cu}}_{24}{\mathrm{O}}_{41}$ are discussed.

Quantum Monte Carlo and exact diagonalization study of a dynamic Hubbard model

J. E. Hirsch

A one-dimensional model of electrons locally coupled to spin-1/2 degrees of freedom is studied by numerical techniques. The model is one in the class of dynamic Hubbard models that describe the relaxation of an atomic orbital upon double-electron occupancy due to electron-electron interactions. We study the parameter regime where pairing occurs in this model by exact diagonalization of small clusters. World-line quantum Monte Carlo simulations support the results of exact diagonalization for larger systems and show that the kinetic energy is lowered when pairing occurs. The qualitative physics of this model and others in its class, obtained through approximate analytic calculations, is that superconductivity occurs through hole undressing even in parameter regimes where the effective on-site interaction is strongly repulsive. Our numerical results confirm the expected qualitative behavior and show that pairing will occur in a substantially larger parameter regime than predicted by the approximate low-energy effective Hamiltonian.
