Variational study of a mobile hole in a two-dimensional quantum antiferromagnet using entangled-plaquette states

Fabio Mezzacapo

We study the properties of a mobile hole in the $t\ensuremath{-}J$ model on the square lattice by means of variational Monte Carlo simulations based on the entangled-plaquette ansatz. Our energy estimates for small lattices reproduce available exact results. We obtain values for the hole energy dispersion curve on large lattices in quantitative agreement with earlier findings based on the most reliable numerical techniques. Accurate estimates of the hole spectral weight are provided.

Static and Dynamic Holes in a Quantum Critical Antiferromagnet

Matthias Troyer

I compute the properties of a mobile hole or a static impurity injected into a quantum critical two-dimensional antiferromagnet by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Using field-theoretical results by Sachdev et al. the mobile hole problem is mapped to the static impurity one and can thus also be treated in quantum Monte Carlo simulations without a negative sign problem.

Dynamics of string-like states of a hole in a quantum antiferromagnet: a diagrammatic Monte Carlo simulation

Nikolaos G Diamantis, Efstratios Manousakis

Abstract The dynamics of a hole motion in a quantum antiferromagnet has been studied in the past three decades because of its relationship to models related to superconductivity in cuprates. The same problem has received significant attention because of its connection to very recent experiments of the dynamics of ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices where models of strongly correlated electrons can be simulated. In this paper we apply the diagrammatic Monte Carlo method to calculate the single-hole Green’s function in the t–J model, where the J term is linearized, in a wide range of imaginary-time with the aim to examine the polaron formation and in particular the details of the contribution of the so-called string excitations found in such recent experiments. We calculate the single-hole spectral function by analytic continuation from imaginary to real time and study the various aspects that constitute the string picture, such as, the energy–momentum dependence of the main quasiparticle peak and its residue, the internal excitations of the string which appear as multiple peaks in the spectral function as well as their momentum dependence. We find that the earlier analysis of the spectral function based on a mobile-hole connected with a string of overturn spins and the contribution of the internal string excitations as obtained from the non-crossing approximation is accurate.
