Publisher

Abstract

In this paper, recent theoretical developments on Anderson localization in one-dimensional electron systems are reviewed. First, the theories for noninteracting systems are summarized together with the various results based on numerical simulation. Special attention will be paid to the dynamical structure of the systems. The second part discussed Anderson localization in interacting electron systems by the phase Hamiltonian, and the close relationship between the localization and the impurity pinning of charge density wave is demonstrated. Results of the numerical simulations by quantum Monte Carlo technique are also presented.

The Impurity Pinning of a Spin-Density Wave in One-Dimensional Interacting Electron Systems

Yoshikazu Suzumura, Tetsuro Saso

The effect of impurities on a spin-density wave (SDW) state in one-dimensional interacting electron systems is investigated by applying a phase representation and the theory of the weak impurity pinning. With the help of numerical simulation, it is shown that the pinned SDW is characterized by both a rapidly varying phase variable of the spin-density fluctuation and a slowly varying phase variable of the charge-density fluctuation. Based on this, the critical condition on the magnitude of interactions for localization-delocalization transition is determined by use of the self-consistent harmonic approximation.

Localization-delocalization transition in interacting one-dimensional fermion systems(LOCALIZATION AND SUPERCONDUCTIVITY IN ID CONDUCTORS, International Symposium on NONLINEAR TRANSPORT AND RELATED PHENOMENA IN INORGANIC QUASI ONE DIMENSIONAL CONDUCTORS)

H. Fukuyama

Electrons in one-dimensional disordered systems exhibit Anderson localization in the absence of mutual interactions. However the transition is possible between localized and delocalized state as the interaction is turned on. In this paper such interplay between Anderson localization and interactions has been examined for spin dependent Tomonaga model based on the phase Hamiltonian derived by the bosonization of the fermion field. The problem is the extention of the classical impurity pinning of the charge density wave to that of quantum systems with phase variables of not only charge but also spin. The critical value of the interaction constant has been derived by the use of selfconsistent-harmonic approximation to the nonlinearity.

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.

Quantum Monte Carlo Study on Impurity Pinning in One-Dimensional Interacting Electron Systems–Competition between Charge Density and Superconducting Fluctuations–

Tetsuro Saso, Yoshikazu Suzumura

Effects of random impurities on one-dimensional interacting electron systems are studied by use of the quantum Monte Carlo method and the phase variable representation of charge density and superconducting fluctuations. The impurities pin the phase variable of charge density fluctuation, whereas the quantum fluctuation around the pinned state reduces the pinning effect yielding increase of the superconducting fluctuation since the charge density and the superconducting fluctuations are complementary to each other. Such interplay between randomness and interactions is shown explicitly by calculating spatial dependence of quantum fluctuations, metastable states and correlation functions for superconductivity. Quantum character of metastable states is discussed. It is found that superconducting state is more sensitive to impurities than charge density wave state when the interaction between electrons is weak.

Anderson Localization in One-Dimensional Interacting Electron Systems

Yoshikazu Suzumura, Hidetoshi Fukuyama

Localization-delocalization transition has been examined for interacting one-dimensional fermion systems with the backward and the Umklapp scattering by use of the phase Hamiltonian. In this approach the localized state is represented as that where the phase variable of either charge or spin (or both of them) is pinned by impurities and then distorted spatially, i.e. glassy. The transition can be understood as the depinning process due to the quantum fluctuations and its boundary has been determined both from the localized region and from the delocalized region. The two different procedures are shown to yield same criterion for the transition.

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.
