Interpolating self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model

Michael Potthoff, Thomas Wegner, Wolfgang Nolting

Published Apr 1, 1997• 0 citations

Abstract

We develop an analytical expression for the self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model that is correct in a number of different limits. The approach represents a generalization of the iterative perturbation theory to arbitrary fillings. In the weak-coupling regime perturbation theory to second order in the interaction U is recovered. The theory is exact in the atomic limit. The high-energy behavior of the self-energy up to order 1/E 2 and thereby the first four moments of the spectral density are reproduced correctly. Referring to a standard strong-coupling moment method, we analyze the limit U ↦ → ∞. Different modifications of the approach are discussed and tested by comparing with the results of an exact diagonalization study. I.

Interpolating self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model: Modifying the iterative perturbation theory

Michael Potthoff, Thomas Wegner, Wolfgang Nolting

We develop an analytical expression for the self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model that is correct in a number of different limits. The approach represents a generalization of the iterative perturbation theory to arbitrary fillings. In the weak-coupling regime perturbation theory to second order in the interaction U is recovered. The theory is exact in the atomic limit. The high-energy behavior of the self-energy up to order 1/${\mathrm{E}}^{2}$ and thereby the first four moments of the spectral density are reproduced correctly. Referring to a standard strong-coupling moment method, we analyze the limit U->\ensuremath{\infty}. Different modifications of the approach are discussed and tested by comparing with the results of an exact diagonalization study.

The metal-insulator transition and Fermi-liquid behaviour in the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model

S. Wermbter, G. Czycholl

We study the Hubbard model in dimension d= infinity , within an approximation that simultaneously reproduces the atomic limit and the weak-coupling limit up to second order in the interaction strength U. This method, which is a slightly modified version of an approximation suggested by Edwards and Hertz, is applied to the calculation of the self-energy and of the spectral function in the paramagnetic regime for different U, band fillings n, and temperatures T. We find Fermi-liquid behaviour for small U and (for half-filling n=0.5) a metal-insulator (Mott) transition at a critical value U cr , but also a metallic non-Fermi-liquid phase for intermediate values U<U cr . We compare our results with results obtained within the second-order perturbation theory in U and (at finite temperature) with the (essentially exact) quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) results. Qualitatively, the approximation reproduces the correct tendencies obtained by QMC, but in detail there are still discrepancies, in particular for intermediate values of U.

Iterated perturbation theory for the attractive Holstein and Hubbard models

James K. Freericks, Mark Jarrell

A strictly truncated (weak-coupling) perturbation theory is applied to the attractive Holstein and Hubbard models in infinite dimensions. These results are qualified by comparison with essentially exact quantum Monte Carlo results. The second-order iterated perturbation theory is shown to be quite accurate in calculating transition temperatures for retarded interactions, but is not as accurate for the self-energy or the irreducible vertex functions themselves. Iterated perturbation theory is carried out through fourth order for the Hubbard model. The self-energy is quite accurately reproduced by the theory, but the vertex functions are not. Anomalous behavior occurs near half-filling because the iterated perturbation theory is not a conserving approximation.

WEAK-COUPLING TREATMENT OF THE HUBBARD-MODEL IN THE HIGH-DIMENSIONAL AND LOW-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEMS

Kyuhwe Kang, Byung Il Min

Employing the equation of motion method for the Green's function, we have obtained the self-energy for the Hubbard model in the weak correlation limit up to the 2nd order in U, the on-site interaction strength. The quasi-particle spectral density of states is determined numerically, using the local approximation which is known to be exact for the infinite dimensional Hubbard model. Further, assuming a linear dispersion for the bare electronic spectra for the 1D Hubbard model, we have evaluated analytically the imaginary part of the self-energy, Im Sigma, near the Fermi energy (E(F)) and the renormalization coefficient at E(F), Z(F). It is found that the 1D Hubbard model system exhibits a non-Fermi liquid behavior within the 2nd order perturbational treatment.

The Hubbard Model: Exact Results in the Strong Coupling Limit

D. M. Esterling

Exact relations are derived for the Fermi Hubbard spectral weight function for infinite U at zero temperature in the thermodynamic limit for any dimension,any lattice structure and general hopping matrix. These relations involve moments of the spectral weight function but differ from similar work by (a) restricting the moments over the interesting low energy (lower Hubbard band) spectrum and (b) without any of the usual approximations (e.g. decoupling) for the requisite higher order correlation functions. The latter are determined exactly as explicit functions of the single particle correlation function in the infinite U limit. The methods behind these results have the additional virtue of simplicity - cumbersome, but entirely straightforward. In a companion paper, the relations offer rich insights into the model behavior and offer severe tests - a computer lab - of any proposed solution to the Hubbard model in the strong correlation (large finite U) region. As the electron density approaches one electron per site, then the correlation functions become local, so are trivial to compute exactly. In that limit and for the paramagnetic case, the second central moment of the spectral weight function is not zero, but quite large.

Some remarks on second-order perturbation theory for the Hubbard model

V. Zlati, B. Horvati, Gudrun Schliecker +1 more

The single-particle second-order self-energy is calculated numerically for the one-dimensional Hubbard model in the weak-coupling limit. On finite lattices the time- and momentum-dependent self-energy can be computed exactly. As an efficient and simple computer code we use the fast Fourier transform technique. For one and two dimensions and for half-filling, analytical results in the limit ω → 0 are given.
