SO 4 SYMMETRY IN A HUBBARD MODEL

Chen Ning Yang, Shoucheng Zhang

Published Jun 1, 1990• 400 citations
Publisher

Abstract

For a simple Hubbard model, using a particle-particle pairing operator η and a particle-hole pairing operator ζ, it is shown that one can write down two commuting sets of angular momenta operators J and J′, both of which commute with the Hamiltonian. These considerations allow the introduction of quantum numbers j and j′ and lead to the fact that the system has SO 4=( SU 2× SU 2)/Z2 symmetry, j is related to the existence of superconductivity for a state and j′ to its magnetic properties.

Superconductivity and magnetism in strongly correlated electronic systems

M. J. Sampaio

In this thesis, symmetry and related transformation laws under a suitable unitary transformation are used in the study of the superconducting and magnetic properties of strongly correlated electronic systems. Such a study profits from a recently found global SO(3)×SO(3)×U(1) = [SO(4)×U(1)]/Z2 symmetry in the Hubbard model on a bipartite lattice. The introduction of the square-lattice quantum liquid relies on a general description of the Hubbard model consistent with its exact global SO(3) × SO(3) × U(1) symmetry. Such a quantum liquid is expected to play the same role for many-electron problems with short-range interactions on a square lattice, as a Fermi liquid for three-dimensional isotropic metals. It refers to the Hubbard model on the square lattice in the subspace spanned by the ground state, and the excited states generated by application onto it of one- and two-electron operators. For such a square-lattice quantum liquid only the charge c fermions and spin-neutral two-spinon s1 fermions play an active role. Part of the studies of this thesis use an effective superconductivity theory according to which, for zero spin density m = 0 and the range 0 < x < x∗ of finite hole concentrations of a short-range spin ordered phase, the ground state of the square-lattice quantum liquid of c and s1 fermions with residual interactions is superconducting. (For U/4t > ui ≈ 3/4 the critical hole concentration x∗ increases continuously upon increasing the U/4t value from x∗ = 1/√2 ≈ 0.225 at U/4t = ui to x∗ = 1/ ≈ 0.318 for U/4t → ∞.) Superconductivity emerges naturally from the effects of the residual interactions of the c and s1 fermions and as a side product of the short-range spin correlations. The phase of the c fermion pairs reads = 0 + 1 where the fluctuations of the phases 0 and 1 become large for x → 0 and x → x∗, respectively. For 0 < x < x∗ and x = 0, the symmetry of the action for the phase is a global superconducting U(1) symmetry and a local compact gauge symmetry, respectively. The former U(1) symmetry is identified with the U(1) symmetry of the Hubbard-model global SO(3) × SO(3) × U(1) = [SO(4) × U(1)]/Z2 symmetry. The amplitudes g = g0 g1, g0 = |heiθ0i|, and g1 = |heiθ1i|, their zero-temperature values ˘g ≈ (x/x∗)(1−x/x∗), ˘g0 ≈ (x/x∗), and ˘g1 ≈ (1−x/x∗) and the fluctuations of the phase , play an important role in the physics of the square-lattice quantum liquid. Together with the energy scale 2 0, which gives the maximum magnitude of the s1 fermion spinon pairing energy, they fully control the order parameters of both the short-range spin and long-range superconducting correlations. Indeed, for temperatures T < Tc, the short-range spin ordered phase has both a macroscopic quantum phase-coherent pair superconducting order so that |heiθi| > 0, and a short-range spin order, whereas for Tc < T < T∗ only the latter order prevails yet there remain c fermion pairing correlations such that |heiθ1i| > 0 but heiθ0i = 0. Here the critical temperature Tc and the crossover pseudogap temperature T∗ are fully controlled by the absolute value of the order parameters of the two above orders, respectively. However, the square-lattice quantum liquid alone does not describe quantitatively the unusual properties of the hole-doped cuprates. To fulfill such a goal we profit from a suitable theory according to which the interplay of electronic correlations described by the square-lattice quantum liquid of charge c fermions and spin-neutral two-spinon s1 fermions with intrinsic disorder, is behind the unusual properties of the holedoped hight-temperature cuprate superconductors. By profiting from such an interplay, an excellent quantitative agreement with experiments for the physical quantities of several families of hole-doped cuprates is reached. That includes universal properties such as a dome-like critical-temperature hole-concentration dependence and normal-state linear-T resistivity near optimal doping, extending over a wide temperature window. The results confirm a coexisting two-gap scenario associated with an incoherent two-spinon pairing and a coherent twoc- fermion pairing, respectively. While most of our studies focus on the superconducting and magnetic properties of the square-lattice quantum liquid associated with the Hubbard model on the square lattice, the magnetic properties of a related model – the periodic Anderson model – are also addressed, on the cubic lattice.

The su(n) Hubbard model

Z. Maassarani

The one-dimensional Hubbard model is known to possess an extended su(2) symmetry and to be integrable. I indroduce an integrable model with an extended su(n) symmetry. This model contains the usual su(2) Hubbard model and has a set of features that make it the su(n) generalization of the Hubbard model. Complete integrability is shown by introducing the L-matrix and showing that the transfer matrix commutes with the hamiltonian. While the model is integrable in one dimension, it provides a generalization of the Hubbard hamiltonian in any dimension.

The Yangian symmetry of the Hubbard model

Fabian H. L. Eßler, Holger Frahm, Frank Göhmann +2 more

In this chapter we will reveal another piece of the algebraic structure of the Hubbard model. As was first observed by Uglov and Korepin [462], the Hubbard Hamiltonian on the infinite line is invariant under the action of the direct sum of two so-called Yangian quantum groups, extending the rotational and the η-pairing su(2) symmetries we encountered earlier. Following [172] we shall address the issue in a more general context. We present two pairs of fermionic representations of the Y(su(2)) Yangian quantum group which commute with the trigonometric [162] and hyperbolic [40, 41] versions of a Hubbard Hamiltonian with non-nearest-neighbour hopping. In both cases the two representations are also mutually commuting, hence can be combined into a representation of Y(su(2))⊕Y(su(2)). The generators of the Yangian symmetry of the ordinary Hubbard model (with nearest-neighbour hopping) and of a number of other interesting models like the Haldane-Shastry spin-chain [194, 394] are obtained as special cases of our general result. Introduction Quantum groups were introduced by Drinfeld [107, 109]. His original intention was to put what we called the Yang-Baxter algebra into the mathematically more conventional context of Hopf algebras. The Yangians are special quantum groups. Their representation theory [80, 81] is intimately related to the classification of integrable quantum systems with rational R -matrices.

The Fermion-ladder models: extensions of the Hubbard model with eta-pairing

Heng Fan

We propose two-leg fermion-ladder models for the SU (2|2) and SU (4) cases. The former is exactly the extended Hubbard model proposed by Essler, Korepin and Schoutens. The latter is a new model also with -pairing symmetry which is important for superconductivity. This new extension of the Hubbard model can be solved exactly.

The Hubbard Model in the Two-Pole Approximation

Adolfo Avella, Francesco Paolo Mancini, D. Villani +2 more

The two-dimensional Hubbard model is analyzed in the framework of the two-pole expansion. It is demonstrated that several theoretical approaches, when considered at their lowest level, are all equivalent and share the property of satisfying the conservation of the first four spectral momenta. It emerges that the various methods differ only in the way of fixing the internal parameters and that it exists a unique way to preserve simultaneously the Pauli principle and the particle–hole symmetry. A comprehensive comparison with respect to some general symmetry properties and the data from quantum Monte Carlo analysis shows the relevance of imposing the Pauli principle.
