Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Models Related to High-Tc Superconductivity on a Transputer Network

Abstract

Much of the insight into the low temperature behaviour of two-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets has been recently obtained by extensive Monte Carlo. These models are relevant in the study of the magnetic behaviour of high Tc compounds containing copper-oxide layers. While of little technical importance, the physical properties of these models are certainly important for the understanding of the new type of behaviour that leads to superconductivity under certain conditions.

Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of CuO sub 2 model

Richard T. Scalettar, Douglas J. Scalapino, Robert L. Sugar +1 more

The nature of the pairing mechanism responsible for high-temperature superconductivity remains a central theoretical puzzle in condensed matter physics. In this paper the authors discuss the properties of the two-dimensional CuO{sub 2} layers common to these materials in terms of a three-bank Hubbard model. The authors describe how recently developed quantum Monte Carlo simulation techniques allow one to calculate the physical properties of strongly interacting many-electron systems and discuss the resources required for such simulations. Then the authors review what we have learned from these simulations about the antiferromagnetic, charge-transfer, and superconducting correlations in the three-band Hubbard model. The authors conclude with a discussion of future goals.

Correlated-Electron Systems and High-Temperature Superconductivity

Takashi Yanagisawa, Mitake Miyazaki, Yamaji K.

We present recent theoretical results on superconductivity in correlated-electron systems, especially in the two-dimensional Hubbard model and the three-band d-p model. The mechanism of superconductivity in high-temperature superconductors has been extensively studied on the basis of various electronic models and also electron-phonon models. In this study, we investigate the properties of superconductivity in correlated-electron systems by using numerical methods such as the variational Monte Carlo method and the quantum Monte Carlomethod. The Hubbard model is one of basic models for strongly correlated electron systems, and is regarded as the model of cuprate high temperature superconductors. The d-p model is more realistic model for cuprates. The superconducting condensation energy obtained by adopting the Gutzwiller ansatz is in reasonable agreement with the condensation energy estimated for YBa2Cu3O7. We show the phase diagram of the ground state using this method. We have further investigated the stability of striped and checkerboard states in the under-doped region. Holes doped in a half-filled square lattice lead to an incommensurate spin and charge density wave. The relationship of the hole density x and incommensurability δ, δ~x, is satisfied in the lower doping region, as indicated by the variationalMonte Carlocalculations for the two-dimensional Hubbard model. A checkerboard-like charge-density modulation with a roughly period has also been observed by scanning tunneling microscopy experiments in Bi2212 and Na-CCOC compounds. We have performed a variational Monte Carlo simulation on a two-dimensional t-t′-t″- U Hubbard model with a Bi-2212 type band structure and found that the period checkerboard spin modulation, that is characterized by multi Q vectors, is indeed stabilized. We have further performed an investigation by using a quantumMonte Carlomethod, which is a numerical method that can be used to simulate the behavior of correlated electron systems. We present a new algorithm of the quantum Monte Carlo diagonalization that is a method for the evaluation of expectation value without the negative sign problem. We compute pair correlation functions and show that pair correlation is indeed enhanced with hole doping.

Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Hubbard and Anderson Models.

Zhang, Yi

We present, in this dissertation, a numerical simulation method to study interacting fermion systems. The general simulation procedures are discussed in connection with a description of a Quantum Monte Carlo simulation algorithm for interacting electrons on lattices. The algorithm presented here has been used to simulate interacting electrons on lattices, and it makes possible the study of substantially larger systems than can be studied by other numerical methods. As long as certain limits of applicability are respected, model Hamiltonians of interacting electrons can be studied without resort to uncontrolled approximations. The method then provides nearly exact solutions to model Hamiltonians of many-body systems, in the sense that the degree of error can be controlled. We also discuss some results obtained from simulations of the extended Hubbard model and and the periodic Anderson model. For the extended Hubbard model in two dimensions, different regions are identified where electron correlation produces antiferromagnetism, charge-density-waves, and singlet pairing superconducting behaviors. We also find regions where transitions from one type of correlation to another occur. For the symmetric periodic Anderson model, we observe the formation of local spin moments at high temperatures and their quenching at low temperatures, as in the single impurity Anderson model. In addition, we find antiferromagnetic interaction between f local moments at low temperatures which are not present in a single impurity problem.
