Superconducting phases in a generalized Hubbard chain with additional off-diagonal hopping processes

Abstract

Applying the bosonization and renormalization group techniques, we study a generalized Hubbard chain incorporating extra off-diagonal hopping processes in the weak regime, and determine rich ground-state phase diagrams. At half filling, in addition to the insulating phases (HI, MI and DI), there exist the superconducting phases (LE and LL). The off-diagonal hopping accounts for the occurrence of insulator–superconductor transition. Away from half filling, the transition from the LL to LE phase takes place, and the insulating phases disappear. The result provides an insignificant insight into unconventional scenarios for Cooper pairing and insulator-superconductor transition.

η -pairing superconductivity in the Hubbard chain with pair hopping

G. I. Japaridze, A. P. Kampf, Michael Sekania +2 more

The ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional Hubbard chain with pair-hopping interaction is studied. The analysis of the model is performed using the continuum-limit field theory approach and exact diagonalization studies. At half-filling the phase diagram is shown to consist of two superconducting states with Cooper-pair center-of-mass momentum $Q=0 (\mathrm{BCS}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{0}$ phase) and $Q=\ensuremath{\pi} ({\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}$ phase) and four insulating phases corresponding to the Mott antiferromagnet, the Peierls dimerized phase, the charge-density-wave (CDW) insulator, and an unconventional insulating phase characterized by the coexistence of a CDW and a bond-located staggered magnetization. Away from half-filling the phase diagram consists of the superconducting $\mathrm{BCS}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{0}$ and ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}$ phases and the metallic Luttinger-liquid phase. The $\mathrm{BCS}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{0}$ phase exhibits a smooth crossover from a weak-coupling BCS type to a strong-coupling local-pair regime. The ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}$ phase shows the properties of the doublon (zero-size Cooper-pair) superconductor with Cooper-pair center-of-mass momentum $Q=\ensuremath{\pi}.$ The transition into the ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}$-paired state corresponds to an abrupt change in the ground-state structure. After the transition the conduction band is completely destroyed and a new ${\ensuremath{\eta}}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}$-pair band, corresponding to the strongly correlated doublon motion, is created.

Phase diagram of the extended Hubbard model with pair hopping interaction

G. I. Japaridze, Sarkar, S.

A one-dimensional model of interacting electrons with on-site U, nearest- neighbor V, and pair-hopping interaction W is studied at half-filling using the continuum limit field theory approach. The ground state phase diagram is obtained for a wide range of coupling constants. In addition to the insulating spin-density wave (SDW) and charge-density wave (CDW) phases for large U and V, respectively, we identify a bond-charge-density-wave (BCDW) phase W < 0, \U - 2V\ < \2W\ and a bond-spin-density-wave (BSDW) for W > 0, \U - 2V\ < W. The possibility of bond-located ordering results from the site-off-diagonal nature of the pair-hopping term and is a special feature of the half-filled band case. The BCDW phase corresponding to an enhanced Peierls instability in the system. The BdSDW is an unconventional insulating magnetic phase, characterized by a gapless spin excitation spectrum and a staggered magnetization located on bonds between sites. The general ground state phase diagram including insulating, metallic, and superconducting phases is discussed. A transition to the eta(pi) -superconducting phase at \U - 2V\ much less than 2t less than or equal to W is briefly discussed.

Superconductivity in the Hubbard model with correlated hopping: Slave-boson study

Bogdan R. Bułka

Slave boson mean-field studies of the ground state of the Hubbard model with correlated hopping were performed. The approach qualitatively recovers the exact results for the case when the hopping integral $t$ equals the correlated hopping integral $X.$ The phase diagram for the strongly correlated state with only singly occupied sites, the weakly correlated state, where single and double occupation is allowed, and for the superconducting state, was determined for any value of $X$ and any electron concentration $n.$ At the half-filled band $(n=1)$ a direct transition from the superconductor to the Mott insulator was found. In the region of strong correlations the superconducting solution is stable for $n$ close to 1, in contrast to the case of weak correlations, in which superconductivity occurs at $n\ensuremath{\approx}0$ and $n\ensuremath{\approx}2.$ We have also found that strong correlations change the characteristics of the superconducting phase, e.g., the gap in the excitation spectrum exhibits a nonexponential dependence on the on-site Coulomb integral $U$ close to the phase-transition point.

Numerical Study of a Superconductor-Insulator Transition in a Half-Filled Hubbard Chain with Distant Transfers

Kazuhiko Kuroki, Ryotaro Arita, Hideo Aoki

The ground state of a one-dimensional Hubbard model having the next-nearest neighbor hopping (t') as well as the nearest-neighbor one (t) is numerically investigated at half-filling. A quantum Monte Carlo result shows a slowly decaying pairing correlation for a sizeable interaction strength $(U \leq 2t)$, while the system is shown to become insulating for yet larger $U>U_C\sim 3t$ from a direct evaluation of the charge gap with the density-matrix renormalization group method. The results are consistent with Fabrizio's recent weak-coupling theory which suggests a transition from a superconductor into an insulator at a finite U.

Phase diagram of the Hubbard chain with symmetric density-dependent hopping

Xin Sun, Weiting Chen, Hanqin Ding

By the bosonization and renormalization-group schemes, a half-filled Hubbard chain with density-dependent hopping is investigated at weak coupling. The model involved has an electron–hole symmetry and an SO(4) symmetry. The phase diagram consists of three different phases divided by a charge transition at on-site repulsion U = U c and a spin transition at U = U s , with U s = − U c = 16 π ( t c − 1 ) , including a Mott insulator with the SDW correlation, a dimerized insulator with the BCDW correlation, and a Luttinger metal with the coexisting TS and BSDW correlations. The effective three-body repulsion ( t c − 1 > 0 ) and attraction ( t c − 1 < 0 ) induce the dimerized and metallic phases, respectively. • We study a 1D Hubbard model with symmetric density-dependent hopping analytically. • We provide a theoretical scheme of realization of the BCDW and TS instabilities. • The results supplement further understanding of quantum properties of 1D correlated systems.

Phase diagram of the half-filled Hubbard chain with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

S. Daul, R. M. Noack

We investigate the ground-state phase diagram of the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping using the density-matrix renormalization-group technique as well as an unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation. We find commensurate and incommensurate disordered magnetic insulating phases and a spin-gapped metallic phase in addition to the one-dimensional Heisenberg phase. At large on-site Coulomb repulsion U, we make contact with the phase diagram of the frustrated Heisenberg chain, which has spin-gapped phases for sufficiently large frustration. For weak U, sufficiently large next-nearest-neighbor hopping ${t}_{2}$ leads to a band structure with four Fermi points rather than two, producing a spin-gapped metallic phase. As U is increased in this regime, the system undergoes a Mott-Hubbard transition to a frustrated antiferromagnetic insulator.
