Comment on ‘‘Ground state of the strong-coupling Hubbard Hamiltonian: A numerical diagonalization study’’
Sanyee Tang, J. E. Hirsch
Abstract
The interpretation of Kaxiras and Manousakis [Phys. Rev. B 37, 656 (1988)] of the data in Fig. 3 of their paper (staggered magnetization distribution) is questioned. It is argued that the existence of magnetic order in the doped Hubbard model cannot be inferred from those data, nor from the behavior of short-range spin-correlation functions.
