Spectral Weight Function and Charge-Excitation Gap of the Half-Filled 2D Hubbard Model

Abstract

Using the combination of the quantum Monte–Carlo and the maximum entropy methods, we study the single-particle spectral weight function for the half-filled two-dimensional Hubbard model including the next-nearest-neighbor hopping. In both the weak- and strong-coupling regimes, it is found that a gap persists as the next-nearest-neighbor hopping is turned on. This indicates that a well-defined charge-excitation gap is a universal nature of the model, irrespective of its band structure.

Dynamical Propertiesof the One-Dimensional Hubbard Model–A Numerical Study–

Hiromi Otsuka

We investigate the dynamical properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard model using the quantum Monte Carlo method and the numerical analytic continuation method based on the maximum entropy principle. Results for the spin, charge and current excitation spectrum are presented for various values of the coupling and the band filling for the system of 24 sites with the periodic boundary condition. We find that the total spectral density of the spin excitation exhibits a gapless structure irrespective of the coupling or the band filling. The charge excitation spectrum, on the other hand, clearly shows the gap formation at the half filled band and shifts its weight toward the higher energy region with increase of the coupling. This charge excitation gap, however, disappears with the hole doping. We also discuss the momentum dependence of the spectral functions.

Spectral weight function for the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Steven R. White

We present results for the single-particle spectral weight function for the two-dimensional Hubbard model. Results were obtained using analytic expressions for the first two moments of the spectral weight function, along with numerical calculations using a combination of quantum Monte Carlo and the maximum-entropy method of analytic continuation. The expressions for the first two moments are surprisingly simple, involving only the parameters of the model, the chemical potential, and the filling. At half-filling, the squared width (variance) of the spectral weight is exactly ${\mathit{U}}^{2}$/4. Numerical results are shown for 8\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}8 lattices at a variety of fillings and momenta. The insulating antiferromagnetic gap in the spectral weights, readily apparent in the results at half-filling, is absent at a filling of 0.95.

The Hubbard model in the strong coupling theory at arbitrary filling

A. Sherman

Abstract Equations for the electron Green's function of the two‐dimensional Hubbard model, derived using the strong coupling diagram technique, are self‐consistently solved for different electron concentrations n and tight‐binding dispersions. Comparison of spectral functions calculated for the ratio of Hubbard repulsion to the nearest neighbor hopping with Monte Carlo data shows not only qualitative, but in some cases quantitative agreement in position of maxima. General spectral shapes, their evolution with momentum and filling in the wide range are also similar. At half‐filling and for the next nearest neighbor hopping constant the Mott transition occurs at , where is the initial bandwidth. This value is close to those obtained in the cases of the semi‐elliptical density of states and for . In the case and the Mott gap reaches maximum width at , and it is larger than that at for half‐filling. In all considered cases positions of spectral maxima are close to those in the Hubbard‐I approximation.

Dynamical properties of two coupled Hubbard chains at half-filling

H. Endres, R. M. Noack, Werner R. Hanke +2 more

Using grand canonical quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations combined with maximum entropy analytic continuation, as well as analytical methods, we examine the one- and two-particle dynamical properties of the Hubbard model on two coupled chains at half-filling. The one-particle spectral weight function, A(k,\ensuremath{\omega}), undergoes a qualitative change with interchain hopping ${\mathit{t}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$ associated with a transition from a four-band insulator to a two-band insulator. A simple analytical model based on the propagation of exact rung singlet states gives a good description of the features at large ${\mathit{t}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$. For smaller ${\mathit{t}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$, A(k,\ensuremath{\omega}) is similar to that of the one-dimensional model, with a coherent band of width the effective antiferromagnetic exchange J which is reasonably well described by renormalized spin-wave theory. The coherent band rides on a broad background of width several times the parallel hopping integral t, an incoherent structure similar to that found in calculations on both the one- and two-dimensional models. We also present QMC results for the two-particle spin and charge excitation spectra, and relate their behavior to the rung singlet picture for large ${\mathit{t}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$ and to the results of spin-wave theory for small ${\mathit{t}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\perp}}}$. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Spectral functions in the hubbard model with half-filling

Sergei G. Ovchinnikov, Elena I. Shneyder

Under the assumption of long-range antiferromagnetic order at low temperatures, the spectral functions and the density of states are calculated in the two-dimensional Hubbard model with half-filling in the Hubbard-I approximation. The results are compared with the data obtained using an exact numerical technique, namely, the quantum Monte Carlo method. The influence of hopping to the next-to-nearest neighbor on the formation of the electronic structure is considered.

One-electron spectral weight of the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model

Niyazi Bulut, Douglas J. Scalapino, Steven R. White

We have calculated the single-particle density of states N(\ensuremath{\omega}) and the spectral weight A(p,\ensuremath{\omega}) for the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model by combining quantum Monte Carlo simulations with the maximum-entropy analytic continuation technique. We present results for various values of the doping, temperature, and Coulomb repulsion U. For sufficiently strong Coulomb repulsions and near half filling, a Mott-Hubbard pseudogap exists. In this case, we find that a peak develops at the top of the lower Hubbard band near the Fermi level at temperatures of order of the hopping t. The structure of this peak is similar to that seen in the infinite dimensional Hubbard model.
