Phase Diagram of the Two-Dimensional Anderson-Hubbard Model

Jaichul Yi Lizeng Zhang, Geoffrey Canright

We study the ground state of the two-dimensional Anderson-Hubbard model using a quantum real space renormalization group method. We obtain the phase diagram near half filling. The system is always insulating with disorder. At half filling, the system undergoes a transition from a gapless (Anderson) insulator to an incompressible (Mott-Hubbard) insulator as the interaction $U$ reaches a critical value $U_c$ . Away from half filling, the insulating phase is always gapless and is found to be controlled by the Anderson fixed point at half filling. This result is similar to that obtained in the corresponding one dimensional system and suggests strongly the importance of the electron-electron correlation in this gapless insulating phase.We study the ground state of the two-dimensional Anderson-Hubbard model using a quantum real space renormalization group method.
