We analyze effective
d-wave interactions in the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model at weak coupling and small to moderate doping. The interactions are computed from a renormalization group flow. Attractive
d-wave interactions are generated via antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations in the pairing and charge channels. Above Van Hove filling, the
d-wave charge interaction is maximal at incommensurate diagonal wave vectors, corresponding to nematic fluctuations with a diagonal modulation. Below Van Hove filling a modulation along the crystal axes can be favored. The nematic fluctuations are enhanced by the nearest-neighbor interaction in the extended Hubbard model, but they always remain smaller than the dominant antiferromagnetic, pairing, or charge density wave fluctuations.
The extended Hubbard model with unscreened electron-electron interactions, modified to account for on-site energy alternation, is investigated through diagrammatic valence-bond technique. Exact results on finite-size systems are carefully extrapolated to the infinite-size system. The coupling of electrons to adiabatic phonons modulating on-site and on-bond energies is accounted for. The calculations give information on intrinsic site-charge-density-wave systems (e.g., mixed-stack charge-transfer crystals) but also allows one to investigate the site-charge-density-wave regime of an extended Hubbard chain without on-site energy alternation in the presence of electron-phonon coupling.
By using the bosonization approach and renormalization group analysis,we study the ground state phase diagram of one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half-filling in the regime where U and V are both positive but less than t, finding that the system shows three distinct ground states characterized by the spin-density-wave,the charge-density-wave and the bond-charge-density-wave,respectively.These results demonstrate that the ground state phases of the extended Hubbard model are not identical with those of the conventional Hubbard model.
