On the ferromagnetic phase transition in Hubbard model
François Brouers, Carlos Mauricio Chaves
Abstract
The authors have derived the free-energy functional of an extended Hubbard model Hamiltonian with interatomic interactions. They have shown that as far as the ferromagnetic transition is concerned universality holds and that introducing a short-range interaction between neighbours yields the same free-energy functional as for the simple Hubbard model if irrelevant terms are discarded.
