Exact Diagonalization of the Hubbard Model: Ten-electrons on Ten-sites

Abstract

By exactly diagonalizing the Hubbard model for ten electrons on ten sites in a one-Dimensional (1D) ring, we extend the study of Jafari (2008) to more than two electrons on two sites. We equally show the sparsity patterns of the Hamiltonian matrices for four- and eight-site problems and obtain the ground state energy eigenvalues for ten electrons on ten-sites. The technique we employ will be a good guide to a beginner/programmer.

Exact diagonalization of the one-dimensional hubbard model up to sixteen sites at half-filling

A. S. Olatinwo, N. Salako, A. Amosun

Numerical exact diagonalisation (ED) of the Hubbard model is traditionally constrained by the exponential growth of the Hilbert space. In this study, we implemented a symmetry-based ED framework to investigate the one-dimensional Hubbard model at half-filling for system sizes up to L=16. By exploiting particle number conservation, spin projection, and translation invariance, we significantly reduced the Hamiltonian dimension, enabling the resolution of ground state energies and dispersion relations without additional approximations. Our results confirmed the transition from a metallic to a correlated insulating regime with increasing on-site repulsion U. Furthermore, extending calculations from ten to sixteen sites revealed scaling trends that asymptotically approached the thermodynamic limit predicted by the Bethe Ansatz (𝐿= ∞). These results served as precise, reproducible benchmarks for validating approximate many-body techniques such as the Density Matrix Renormalisation Group (DMRG).

Small-cluster calculations for the simple and extended Hubbard models

J. Callaway, D. P. Chen, D. G. Kanhere +1 more

The single-band Hubbard model (both with and without first-neighbor interactions) is studied by exact diagonalization on several one- and two-dimensional clusters, ranging from four to nine sites, including rings and arrangements of squares. Occupancies include the half-filled band (one electron per site) and configurations with one and two holes in the half-filled band. Ground-state properties are determined for a wide range of parameters. We discuss the phase diagram in the (U,V) plane and consider spin, charge, and pairing correlations. The binding of a pair of holes is investigated. Circumstances in which binding and pairing are enhanced by first-neighbor interactions are described.

An exact solution to the extended Hubbard model in 2D for finite size system

S Harir, Mohamed Bennai, Y. Boughaleb

An exact analytical diagonalization is used to solve the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model (EHM) for a system with finite size. We have considered an EHM including on-site and off-site interactions with interaction energies U and V , respectively, for a square lattice containing 4 × 4 sites at one-eighth filling with periodic boundary conditions, recently treated by Kovacs and Gulacsi (2006 Phil. Mag. 86 2073). Taking into account the symmetric properties of this square lattice and using a translation linear operator, we have constructed a r-space basis only with 85 state-vectors which describe all possible distributions for four electrons in the 4 × 4 square lattice. The diagonalization of the 85 × 85 matrix energy allows us to study the local properties of the above system as a function of the on-site and off-site interactions energies, where we have shown that the off-site interaction encourages the existence of the double occupancies at the first excited state and induces a supplementary conductivity of the system.

Pairing in the two-dimensional Hubbard model: An exact diagonalization study

H. Q. Lin, J. E. Hirsch, Douglas J. Scalapino

We have studied the pair susceptibilities for all possible pair wave functions that fit on a two-dimensional (2D) eight-site Hubbard cluster by exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian. Band fillings corresponding to four and six electrons were studied (two or four holes in the half-filled band) for a wide range of Hubbard interaction strengths and temperatures. Our results show that all pairing susceptibilities are suppressed by the Hubbard repulsion. We have also carried out perturbation-theory calculations which show that the leading-order ${U}^{2}$ contributions to the d-wave pair susceptibility suppresses d-wave pairing over a significant temperature range. These results are consistent with recent Monte Carlo results and provide further evidence suggesting that the 2D Hubbard model does not exhibit superconductivity.

Falicov-Kimball model and its relation to the Hubbard model: Studies on clusters

Romuald L yżwa, Zbigniew Domański

Ground-state properties of the asymmetric Hubbard model are studied on one-dimensional clusters (rings) with N=6, 8, and 10 sites. The ground-state energy, correlation functions, and phase diagrams are determined for various sets of model parameters. Computations are performed both by exact diagonalization (for N=6) and by an approximate method by which correlation effects can be examined on larger clusters than exact diagonalization allows. In the limiting cases (one limit corresponds to the spinless Falicov-Kimball model and the other to the Hubbard model) our results agree quite well with those obtained analytically for infinite systems.

Ground-state properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

H. Q. Lin

Using all appropriate symmetries for a two-dimensional square system, we have been able to diagonalize exactly the Hubbard Hamiltonian on the 4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}4 and 18-site lattices. We calculate the ground-state energies, hole-hole interactions, and various correlation functions as functions of the Coulomb repulsion U and band filling, and compare the Hubbard-model results with those obtained from the t-J and strong-coupling models.
