PSEUDOGAP, CHARGE AND SPIN RESPONSES IN THE HUBBARD MODEL

Abstract

We have studied in terms of the effective T-matrix the self-energy part for both the attractive (U<0) and repulsive (U>0) Hubbard models. It is shown that the fluctuation pairing for strong coupling at T>T c for the attractive Hubbard model does not cause any pseudogap behavior in the single-particle density of states. We have also identified the origin of the false pseudogap for that case. Meanwhile, the fluctuation pairing significantly affect the density–density and the current–current correlation functions. As a result, there exists a pseudogap in the charge (and current) response for the attractive Hubbard model. In contrast, the pseudogap in the spin response appears to exist for the repulsive Hubbard model only. It is also shown that the contribution from the Hartree–"Cooper" channel gives an anomalous Fermi liquid term, Im χ c ≈-ω/T, to the charge response of the nearly antiferromagnetic Fermi liquid.

Pseudogap and Unconventional Pairing in the Hubbard Model

Y. M. Malozovsky, J. D. Fan

The attractive (U < 0) and repulsive (U > 0) Hubbard models have been studied using the Fermi liquid perturbation approach. The attractive Hubbard model (U < 0) is an adequate model for 3 He , an incompressible and strongly paramagnetic liquid [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for |U|N F = 0.9) with a pseudogap in the charge response. A pairing instability and superfluidity for U < 0 exists in the spin channel only: spin-triplet with l = 0, or spin-singlet with l = 1 (p-wave orbital state j = s + l = 1), where l is the orbital momentum of a pair. The repulsive Hubbard model (U > 0) represents a highly compressible and nearly antiferromagnetic liquid [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for UN F = 0.9) with a pseudogap in the spin response. However, for U > 0 a pairing instability and superconductivity exist in the charge channel only: spin-singlet with l = 0 (s-wave), or with l = 2 (d-wave) in the case of an anisotropic Fermi surface.

Anisotropic pseudogap in the half-filling 2-d Hubbard model at finite T

Taiichirou Saikawa, Ferraz, A.

We have studied the pseudogap formation in the single-particle spectra of the half-filling two-dimensional Hubbard model. Using a Green's function with the one-loop self-energy correction of the spin and charge fluctuations, we have numerically calculated the self-energy, the spectral function, and the density of states in the weak-coupling regime at finite temperature. Pseudogap formations have been observed in both the density of states and the spectral function at the Fermi level. The pseudogap in the spectral function is explained by the non-Fermi-liquid-like nature of the self-energy. The anomalous behavior in the self-energy is caused by both the strong antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation and the nesting condition on the non-interacting Fermi surface. In the present approximation, we find a logarithmic singularity in the integrand of the imaginary part of the self-energy. Concerning the energy dependence of the spectral function and the self-energy, two theorems are proved. They give a necessary condition in the self-energy to produce the pseudogap at the Fermi level. The pseudogap in the spectral function is highly momentum dependent on the Fermi surface. It opens initially in the $(\pm π,0)$, $(0,\pm π)$ regions as the normal state pseudogap observed in the high-$T_c$ superconductors and if the interaction is increased, it spreads to other Fermi surface sectors. The anisotropy of the pseudogap is produced by the low-energy enhancement of the spin excitation around ${\bf Q}=(π,π)$ and the flatness of the band dispersion around the saddle point.

Pairing fluctuations and pseudogaps in the attractive Hubbard model

Bumsoo Kyung, S. Allen, A.–M. S. Tremblay

The two-dimensional attractive Hubbard model is studied in the weak-to-intermediate-coupling regime by employing a nonperturbative approach. It is shown that this approach is in quantitative agreement with Monte Carlo calculations for both single-particle and two-particle quantities. Both the density of states and the single-particle spectral weight show a pseudogap at the Fermi energy below some characteristic temperature ${T}^{*},$ also in good agreement with quantum Monte Carlo calculations. The pseudogap is caused by critical pairing fluctuations in the low-temperature renormalized classical regime $(\ensuremath{\Elzxh}\ensuremath{\omega}<{k}_{B}T)$ of the two-dimensional system. With increasing temperature the spectral weight fills in the pseudogap instead of closing it, and the pseudogap appears earlier in the density of states than in the spectral function. Small temperature changes around ${T}^{*}$ can modify the spectral weight over frequency scales much larger than temperature. Several qualitative results for the s-wave case should remain true for d-wave superconductors.

Deviations from Fermi-Liquid Behavior above Tc in 2D Short Coherence Length Superconductors

Nandini Trivedi, Mohit Randeria

We show that there are qualitative differences between the temperature dependence of the spin and charge correlations in the normal state of the 2D attractive Hubbard model using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The one-particle density of states shows a pseudogap above ${T}_{c}$ with a depleted $N\left(0\right)$ with decreasing $T$. The susceptibility ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{s}$ and the low frequency spin spectral weight track $N\left(0\right)$, which explains the spin-gap scaling: ${1/T}_{1}T\ensuremath{\sim}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{s}\left(T\right)$. However, collective excitations contribute to the charge channel, and the compressibility $dn/d\ensuremath{\mu}$ is $T$ independent. This anomalous ``spin-charge separation'' is shown to exist even at intermediate $|U|$ where the momentum distribution $n\left(\mathbf{k}\right)$ gives evidence for a degenerate Fermi system.

Hidden fermionic excitation in the superconductivity of the strongly attractive Hubbard model

志朗 酒井, Marcello Civelli, Yusuke Nomura +1 more

We study the attractive Hubbard model within the dynamical mean-field theory, to elucidate how the pseudogap and superconductivity at strong attractive interaction are related to those found in the repulsive Hubbard model, and thereby to bridge cold fermions and cuprate high-temperature superconductors from a microscopic point of view. We propose that a unified understanding is obtained by investigating single-particle excitation dynamics, in which emergent and hidden fermions coupled to quasiparticles consistently account for the numerical results in both attractive and repulsive cases. In the attractive case, the quasiparticle dynamics is observable by virtually breaking a tightly bound pair, where we find two qualitatively different regions crossing over each other within the strong-coupling superconductivity phase. Among them, the region close to the critical temperature shares characteristic dynamics with the repulsive interaction case, where the normal and anomalous parts of the self-energy show strong low-energy peaks while they are hidden in the quasiparticle spectral weight. These prominent self-energy peaks are understood by the coupling of the quasiparticle to the hidden fermionic excitation, emergent from a strong-coupling effect. The pseudogap above the critical temperature is also accounted for by the same hidden fermion.
