Study of the Large-Dimensional Hubbard Model Via a New Nonperturbative Method
Jongbae Hong, Jinsook Song
Abstract
A new nonperturbative method calculating the one-particle Green's function is introduced and applied to the Hubbard model. We show the metal–insulator transition in the paramagnetic ground state of the half-filled Hubbard model on a Bethe lattice with infinite connectivity. This method describes the transition regime appropriately. The analytic result using the continued fraction formalism which has a close relationship with present formalism is provided for comparison. As for the Hubbard model with doping, we obtain the optical conductivities and show the interesting features, such as midinfrared band and isobestic point. We also show that the sharp frequency-dependent behavior at large doping is the dispersed Drude type in this model.
