Group Theoretical Analysis of the Vortex Lattice States in the Attractive Hubbard Model

Abstract

This paper describes a group theoretical classification of superconducting states (vortex lattice states) in a unifom magnetic field of the extended Hubbard model with on-site attraction (U<0), or nearest-neighbor attraction (V<0) on a two-dimensional square lattice. Using symmetries of the magnetic translation and the tetragonal rotation of the system, we obtain invariance groups of vortex lattice states. When the magnetic flux φ through a unit cell of the crystal lattice is φ0/p2 (φ0=ch/2e is the flux quantum, p is an integer) we obtained three types of symmorphic tetragonal vortex lattice states, in which the center of point rotations is at a lattice site of the crystal lattice, corresponding to the irreducible representation of the tetragonal symmetry D4. For these three states, locations and winding numbers of vortex lines are determined by the symmetries of their invariance group. From these three symmorphic states we derived three (two) types of non-symmorphic vortex lattice states in which the center of point rotations is at the center of a plaquette (link) of the crystal lattice. We show that d-wave, s-wave and p-wave local order parameters inevitably coexist due to the invariance magnetic translation group L of the vortex lattice state. From the irreducible projective representations (two-dimensional) of L, we show that all energy bands of the quasiparticles are at least doubly degenerate.

SUPERCONDUCTING CLASSES IN THE EXTENDED HUBBARD MODEL

This paper describes group theoretical classification of superconducting states (SC) in the extended Hubbard model with on-site repulsion (U), nearest neighbor attraction (V) and nearest neighbour exchange interaction (J) on the two-dimensional square lattice using the mean field approach. By decomposing the pairing interaction into irreducible parts; A1g, B1g and Eu of D4h point symmetry, we have derived two singlet SCs (s-wave and d-wave) from A1g and B1g, eight triplet SCs from Eu. The first three types of triplet SC have pairing by electrons with antiparallel spin, the second two types have pairing by electrons with equal spin and the last three types are non-unitary and have pairing by only up-spin electrons. We showed that three non-unitary states have to be accompanied with a ferromagnetic order from the structure of the maximal little groups. We performed numerical studies for these SCs. For parameters and electron density favorable for the ferromagnetic order, a non-unitary SC coexistent with ferromagnetism is most stable.

Superconducting States with the Lattice Distortion in the Extended Hubbard Model

Eiji Miyai, Masa-aki Ozaki

We give group theoretical classification of superconducting (SC) states with a single SC order parameter in the extended Hubbard model with uniform lattice distortion on the two-dimensional square lattice, by using the mean field approach. We obtain two singlet SCs (s-wave and d-wave) and eight triplet SCs by decomposing the pairing interaction into irreducible components (A1g, B1g and Eu) of point symmetry D4h. We show that in the singlet SC state with a single SC order parameter (s-wave or d-wave) no anisotropic lattice distortion occurs. In the case of triplet SC states, two SC states among eight must be accompanied with anisotropic lattice distortion. The symmetry of SC order parameter uniquely determines the lattice symmetry. We have performed numerical calculations for these SC states, and shown the possibility that one of the SC states with anisotropic lattice distortion becomes most stable of all SC states in the extended Hubbard model. We also discuss singlet SC states with multiple SC order parameters (s-wave and d-wave). It is shown that the anisotropic distortion must occur in (s+d)-SC states and not in (s+id)-SC state.

Group theoretical classification of the Hartree-Fock solutions of the Hubbard model on a triangular lattice

Atsushi Ikawa, Makiko Ozaki

Group theoretically possible spin density waves (SDWs) of the Hubbard model on a triangular lattice are found and classified for ordering vectors q of K and M in the Brillouin zone by finding the maximal subgroups of the symmetry group of the Hamiltonian. It is found that classifications of SDWs with these ordering vectors are reduced to classifications of SDWs on molecules with D 3 and T d symmetries, respectively. From this reduction the authors found two axial-type ASDWs (ASDW) and one plane-type SDW (PSDW) for point K and three ASDWs, two PSDWs and one cubic- (three-dimensional-) type SDW (CSDW) for point M. The standard mean-field Hamiltonians and their invariance groups are listed for each class.

Superconductivity in the Hubbard model with pair hopping

S. Robaszkiewicz, Bogdan R. Bułka

The phase diagrams and superconducting properties of the extended Hubbard model with pair hopping interaction, i.e., the Penson-Kolb-Hubbard model are studied. The analysis of the model is performed for d-dimensional hypercubic lattices, including $d=1$ and $d=\ensuremath{\infty},$ by means of the (broken symmetry) Hartree-Fock approximations and, for $d=\ensuremath{\infty},$ by the slave-boson mean-field method. For $d=1,$ at half filling the phase diagram is shown to consist of nine different phases including two superconducting states with center-of-mass momentum $q=0$ and $q=Q$ $(\ensuremath{\eta}$ pairing), site and bond-located antiferromagnetic and charge-density wave states as well as three mixed phases with coexisting site and bond orderings. The stability range of the bond-type orderings shrinks with increasing lattice dimensionality d and for $d=\ensuremath{\infty}$ the corresponding diagram consists of four phases only, involving exclusively site-located orderings. Comparing the pair hopping model with the attractive Hubbard model we found in both cases gradual evolution from the BCS-like limit to the tightly bound pairs regime and a monotonic increase of the gap in the excitation spectrum with increasing coupling. However, the dynamics of electron pairs in both models is qualitatively different, which results in different dependences of condensation energies and critical temperatures on interaction parameters as well as in different electrodynamic properties, especially in a strong coupling regime.

Pairing and Vortex Lattices for Interacting Fermions in Optical Lattices with a Large Magnetic Field

Hui Zhai, R. O. Umucalılar, Mehmet Özgür Oktel

We study the structure of a pairing order parameter for spin-1/2 fermions with attractive interactions in a square lattice under a uniform magnetic field. Because the magnetic translation symmetry gives a unique degeneracy in the single-particle spectrum, the pair wave function has both zero and finite-momentum components coexisting, and their relative phases are determined by a self-consistent mean-field theory. We present a microscopic calculation that can determine the vortex lattice structure in the superfluid phase for different flux densities. Phase transition from a Hofstadter insulator to a superfluid phase is also discussed.

The ordered phase of electron vortices

Bogdan R. Bułka

Stability conditions for the ordered state of the magnetic fluxes induced by rotating electrons on a square lattice are analysed in the mean-field approximation for the extended Hubbard model. It is shown that the flux phase can appear if the exchange energy V1 is sufficiently large. The order parameter, magnetic flux Phi enclosed in the unit cell, and critical temperature of the flux phase are monotonically increasing functions of V1. It is also shown that the flux and the antiferromagnetic phase can coexist.
