Simulating Strongly Correlated Electron Systems with Hybrid Monte Carlo

Liu Chuan

Published Aug 1, 2000• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

Using the path integral representation, the Hubbard and the periodic Anderson model on D -dimensional cubic lattice are transformed into field theories of fermions in D + 1 dimensions. These theories at half-filling possess a positive definite real symmetry fermion matrix and can be simulated using the hybrid Monte Carlo method.

Quantum Path-integral Method for Fictitious Particle Hubbard Model

Zhijie Fan, Tianning Xiao, Youjin Deng

We formulate a path-integral Monte Carlo algorithm for simulating lattice systems consisting of fictitious particles governed by a generalized exchange statistics. This method, initially proposed for continuum systems, introduces a continuous parameter $ξ$ in the partition function that interpolates between bosonic ($ξ= 1$) and fermionic ($ξ= -1$) statistics. We generalize this approach to discrete lattice models and apply it to the two-dimensional Hubbard model of fictitious particles, including the Bose- and Fermi-Hubbard models as special cases. By combining reweighting and $ξ$-extrapolation techniques, we access both half-filled and doped regimes. In particular, we demonstrate that the method remains effective even in strongly correlated, doped systems where the fermion sign problem hinders conventional quantum Monte Carlo approaches. Our results validate the applicability of the fictitious particle framework on lattice models and establish it as a promising tool for sign-problem mitigation in strongly interacting fermionic systems.

QUANTUM MONTE CARLO SIMULATION STUDY OF ONE-DIMENSIONAL PERIODIC ANDERSON MODEL

Meenakshi Sharma, KAMLESH KUMARI, Ishwar S Singh

Many rare earth and actinide intermetallics, known as Heavy Fermion Systems, have recently been successfully described by the Periodic Anderson Model. We investigate, in this work, various electronic and magnetic properties of the one-dimensional Periodic Anderson model using path integral formulation along with the quantum Monte Carlo simulation technique. We have studied the singlet and triplet pairing correlation functions, nearest neighbor charge-density correlations, spin density correlations, local squared magnetic moment and probability of double occupancy of f-electrons, as a function of intra-atomic Coulomb interaction for various values of hybridization parameter and the temperatures.

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.

Hybrid Quantum Monte Carlo for Condensed Matter Models

Stefan Beyl

In this thesis we consider the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method for simulations of the Hubbard and Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. In the first instance, we discuss the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method for the Hubbard model on a square lattice. We point out potential ergodicity issues and provide a way to circumvent them by a complexification of the method. Furthermore, we compare the efficiency of the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method with a well established determinantal quantum Monte Carlo method for simulations of the half-filled Hubbard model on square lattices. One reason why the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method loses the comparison is that we do not observe the desired sub-quadratic scaling of the numerical effort. Afterwards we present a formulation of the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method for the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model in two dimensions. Electron-phonon models like this are in general very hard to simulate using other Monte Carlo methods in more than one dimensions. It turns out that the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method is much better suited for this model . We achieve favorable scaling properties and provide a proof of concept. Subsequently, we use the hybrid quantum Monte Carlo method to investigate the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model in detail at half-filling in two dimensions. We present numerical data for staggered valence bond order at small phonon frequencies and an antiferromagnetic order at high frequencies. Due to an O(4) symmetry the antiferromagnetic order is connected to a superconducting charge density wave. Considering the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model without tight-binding hopping reveals an additional unconstrained Z_2 gauge theory. In this case, we find indications for π-fluxes and a possible Z_2 Dirac deconfined phase as well as for a columnar valence bond ordered state at low phonon energies. In our investigations of the several phase transitions we discuss the different possibilities for the underlying mechanisms and reveal first insights into a rich phase diagram.

We formulate a path-integral Monte Carlo algorithm for simulating lattice systems consisting of fictitious particles governed by a generalized exchange statistics. This method, initially proposed for continuum systems, introduces a continuous parameter ξξξ in the partition function that interpolates between bosonic (ξ=1ξ= 1ξ=1) and fermionic (ξ=−1ξ= -1ξ=−1) statistics. We generalize this approach to discrete lattice models and apply it to the two-dimensional Hubbard model of fictitious particles, including the Bose- and Fermi-Hubbard models as special cases. By combining reweighting and ξξξ-extrapolation techniques, we access both half-filled and doped regimes. In particular, we demonstrate that the method remains effective even in strongly correlated, doped systems where the fermion sign problem hinders conventional quantum Monte Carlo approaches.
