Quasi-Particle Density of States of Two-Dimensional Hubbard Model
Takashi Hotta
Abstract
The density of states (DOS) of the two-dimensional Hubbard model is calculated in second-order perturbation with respect to the on-site Coulomb interaction U . The direct analytic continuation formula is presented to calculate the self-energy on the real-frequency axis. The momentum as well as the energy integral in the self-energy is seriously carried out with use of the Fast-Fourier-Transformation algorithm. Near the half-filling, the imaginary part of the self-energy becomes proportional to the energy in the vicinity of the Fermi level in our weak-coupling calculation. In the interacting case, the van Hove singularity (VHS) in DOS is smeared by the self-energy effect, but there still exists a sharp peak structure due to VHS.
