Using the modified Lanczos algorithm, we calculate numerically for a chain with ten sites and half-filled the local pair-pair correlation function of the Anderson-Hubbard model (with the interaction both repulsive and attractive). The calculation aims to describe the phase with local superconductivity.
We study the ground-state phase diagram of the Anderson-Hubbard model with correlated hopping at half-filling in one dimension. The Hamiltonian has a local Coulomb repulsion U and a disorder potential with local energies randomly distributed in the interval $(\ensuremath{-}W,+W)$ with equal probability, acting on the singly occupied sites. The hopping process which modifies the number of doubly occupied sites is forbidden. The hopping between nearest-neighbor singly occupied and empty sites or between singly occupied and doubly occupied sites has the same amplitude t. We identify three different phases as functions of the disorder amplitude W and Coulomb interaction strength U>0. When U<4t the system shows a metallic phase: (i) only when no disorder is present W=0 or an Anderson-localized phase, (ii) when disorder is introduced $W\ensuremath{\ne}0$. When U>4t the Anderson-localized phase survives as long as disorder effects dominate on the interaction effects, otherwise a Mott-insulator phase (iii) arises. Phases (i) and (ii) are characterized by a finite density of doublons and a vanishing charge gap among the ground state and the excited states. Phase (iii) is characterized by the vanishing density of doublons and a finite gap for the charge excitations.
We investigate the Hubbard model on a two-dimensional cluster of 18 sites using Lanczos algorithm for different strengths of Coulomb repulsion in the low doping region. Energies and correlation functions are given for half-filling and two holes. In the strong coupling regime we compare our results with the $t\ensuremath{-}J$ model. We confirm the tendency of holes to repel, although a significant value of the ${d}_{{x}^{2}\ensuremath{-}{y}^{2}}$-wave superconductive order parameter is measured. These data represent a benchmark for future quantum simulations.
We investigate the single-band Hubbard model with random site energies in the strong-repulsion limit, as represented by the slave-boson formulation of the t-J model. It is essential to include the correlations between the slave-boson mean field and the disorder. This leads to the widening of the non-Fermi-liquid (``generalized Mott insulating'') region around half filling. In the Fermi-liquid regime we apply the renormalization-group method. The resulting phase diagram has superconducting, magnetic, and insulating phases. The disorder generally suppresses superconductivity and gives rise to the formation of localized magnetic moments.
Abstract We consider Anderson localization in the half-filled Anderson–Hubbard model in the presence of either random on-site interactions or spatially alternating interactions in the lattice. By using dynamical mean field theory with the equation of motion method as an impurity solver, we calculate the arithmetically and geometrically averaged local density of states and derive the equations determining the critical value for the phase transition between metallic, Anderson and Mott insulating phases. The nonmagnetic ground state phase diagrams are constructed numerically. We figure out that the presence of Coulomb disorder drives the system toward the Anderson localized phase that can occur even in the absence of Anderson structural disorder. For the spatially alternating interactions, we find that the metallic region is reduced and the Anderson insulator one is enlarged with increasing interaction modulation. Our obtained results are relevant to current research in ultracold atoms in disordered optical lattices where metal–insulator transition can be observed experimentally by using ultracold atom techniques.
The real-space renormalization-group technique is applied to the Hubbard model on a linear chain with a half-filled band; a recently proposed modified scheme is used for the renormalization of the parameters. The result for the ground-state energy is quite improved with respect to the earlier results of the existing scheme. Both the energy and its derivative with respect to the on-site repulsion term agree reasonably well with the exact solution. However, it is indicated that the calculation of the correlation function and energy gap requires further refinement of this scheme.
