Half-filled Hubbard model at low temperature

Abstract

The ground-state energy E and momentum distribution n k of the electrons are expanded from the atomic limit for the half-filled Hubbard model. The coefficients of expansion are represented by the spin correlation functions of the spin 1 / 2 Heisenberg model. Using the spin-wave theory, approximate values of coefficients are calculated for the square lattice and the simple cubic lattice. In one dimension, the theory shows a good agreement with the exact solution. An effective spin Hamiltonian for the half-filled Hubbard model with arbitrary hopping integrals is obtained up to the fifth order. It is shown that the fourth term contains four spin interactions.

Ising expansion for the Hubbard model

Zhu-Pei Shi, Rajiv R. P. Singh

We develop series expansions for the ground state properties of the Hubbard model by introducing an Ising anisotropy into the Hamiltonian. For the two-dimensional square lattice half-filled Hubbard model, the ground state energy, local moment, sublattice magnetization, uniform magnetic susceptibility, and spin stiffness are calculated as a function of U/t, where U is the Coulomb constant and t is the hopping parameter. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate a crossover around U\ensuremath{\approxeq}4 between spin density wave antiferromagnetism and Heisenberg antiferromagnetism. Comparisons with Monte Carlo simulations, random phase approximation result, and mean-field solutions are also made.

Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations of the Half-filled Hubbard Model

Anders F. J. Gabrielsson

A Quantum Monte Carlo method of calculating operator expectation values for the ground state of the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model on large square lattices is presented, along with some comparisons of the results obtained from this method and alternative methods for 2D lattices. In the simulations the ground state is projected out from an arbitrary state and sampled in a valence\nbond basis spanning the spin singlet subspace. The projection method is then extended to be used on a simplified Hubbard model at half-filling, which is\naptly called the T0-less Hubbard model, for arbitrary relative strengths of the electron hopping and electron-electron repulsion energy parameters. Results for calculated ground state energies in 1D are presented. These calculations are performed using a spin-charge separated basis, in which the valence bonds\nare generalized to also carry charge.

Generalized spin-wave theory for the Hubbard model at half filling

Xin-Zhong Yan

By taking into account the contribution of transverse spin fluctuations deviating from the mean-field approximation, we develop a generalized spin-wave theory for the square-lattice Hubbard model at half filling. The present theory reproduces very accurately the ground-state energy of Lieb and Wu for the one-dimensional case; the discrepancy is typically 1%. In the very-strong-coupling limit, it reduces exactly to Anderson's spin-wave theory for the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model.

Magnetism in the Hubbard model: An effective spin Hamiltonian approach

Michael A. Tusch, Yolande H. Szczech, David E. Logan

We present an approach to the magnetic properties of the half-filled Hubbard model, based on an approximate mapping of its low-energy transverse spin excitations on to those of an effective underlying Heisenberg model, but with effective spin interactions which are self-consistently determined and not confined solely to nearest-neighbor couplings. The mapping is exact in strong-coupling and is found to be accurate over a very wide range of interaction strengths, down to weak coupling. At zero temperature, it permits ready evaluation at finite U of the one-loop effects of zero-point spin fluctuations on, e.g., the sublattice magnetization. At finite temperatures, thermodynamic properties of the system in the thermal paramagnet are studied via a physically transparent Onsager reaction field approach, which amounts to a self-consistent treatment of paramagnetic spin correlations. This is central not only in recovering the correct dimensionality dependence of antiferromagnetic long-ranged order, but also for the d=3 case of primary interest here yields a N\'eel temperature in close agreement with known strong- and weak-coupling limits. Spin correlation functions and magnetic susceptibilities also show very good agreement with quantum Monte Carlo calculations over an appreciable temperature range in which the low-lying transverse spin excitations are thermally dominant. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Exploiting the links between ground-state correlations and independent-fermion entropy in the Hubbard model

T. S. Müller, W. Töws, G. M. Pastor

The ground-state properties of the half-filled Hubbard model are investigated in the framework of lattice density functional theory. The single-particle density matrix ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{ij\ensuremath{\sigma}}$ is regarded as the central variable of the many-body problem, where $i$ and $j$ refer to the lattice sites and $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ to the spin. The interaction-energy functional $W[{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{ij\ensuremath{\sigma}}]$ is calculated exactly for representative finite periodic systems by performing exact Lanczos diagonalizations. The relationship between $W[{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{ij\ensuremath{\sigma}}]$ and the entropy $S[{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\mathbit{k}\ensuremath{\sigma}}]$ of independent fermions with natural-orbital occupations ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\mathbit{k}\ensuremath{\sigma}}$ is analyzed. A simple approximation to the interaction energy of the half-filled Hubbard model is proposed, which takes the form $W=W(S[{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\mathbit{k}\ensuremath{\sigma}}])$. Using this functional we derive the ground-state energy, kinetic energy, average number of double occupations, charge distribution, magnetic susceptibility, and field-induced spin polarization in one-, two-, and three-dimensional periodic lattices. The limit of infinite dimensions is also explored. The accuracy of the method is assessed by comparison with available exact numerical or analytical results. Goals, limitations, and possible extensions of the domain of applicability of the functional are discussed.

Large-Uexpansions for the Hubbard model atT=0. II

J. Oitmaa, Yang Jie, Jon Henderson +1 more

We investigate the ground state of the Hubbard model in one and two dimensions. Long perturbation expansions in t/U, i.e., about the atomic limit, are computed for the ground-state energy of finite lattices with N\ensuremath{\le}10 for arbitrary electron density. We also extend the series for the one-dimensional infinite lattice by expanding the Bethe-ansatz equations. Pad\'e-approximant analysis of the series shows a distribution of singularities that varies dramatically with the electron density n. We also investigate the effect of inclusion of next-nearest-neighbor hopping. This appears to have little effect at half-filling but is significant away from half-filling.
