Fermi liquid behavior in the 2D Hubbard model at low temperatures

G. Benfatto, Alessandro Giuliani, Vieri Mastropietro

Published Jan 1, 2005• 23 citations

Abstract

Abstract. We prove that the weak coupling 2D Hubbard model away from half filling is a Landau Fermi liquid up to exponentially small temperatures. In particular we show that the wave function renormalization is an order 1 constant and essentially temperature independent in the considered range of temperatures and that the interacting Fermi surface is a regular convex curve. This result is obtained by deriving a convergent expansion (which is not a power series) for the two point Schwinger function by Renormalization Group methods and proving at each order suitable power counting improvements due to the convexity of the interacting Fermi surface. Convergence follows from determinant bounds for the fermionic expectations.

Phase Transitions in the Hubbard Model on the Square Lattice

Zhituo Wang

We study the low temperature properties of the two-dimensional weakly interacting Hubbard model on $\ZZZ^2$ with renormalized chemical potential $μ=2-μ_0$, $μ_0=10^{-10}$ fixed, in which case the Fermi surface is close to a perfect square. Using fermionic functional integrals, cluster expansions and rigorous renormalization group analysis, we prove that the perturbation series for the two-point Schwinger function is analytic in the coupling constant $ł$ in the domain $ł\in\RR_T=\{ł\in\RRR,\vertλ\log^2(μ_0T/C_1)|\le C_2\}$ for any fixed temperature $T>0$, suggesting that there is a phase transition with critical temperature $T_c= \frac{C_1}{\m_0}\exp{(-C^{1/2}_2|λ|^{-1/2})}$. Here $C_1, C_2$ are positive constants independent of $T$ and $ł$. We also prove that the second derivative of the momentum space self-energy function w.r.t. the external momentum is not uniformly bounded, suggesting that this model is {\it not} a Fermi liquid in the mathematically precise sense of Salmhofer. This result can be viewed as a first step towards rigorous study of the Fermi liquid-non Fermi liquid crossover phenomenon.

Marginal Fermi liquid behaviour in the d = 2 Hubbard model with cut-off

Vieri Mastropietro

forbidding momenta close to the angles of the square shaped Fermi surface. By Renormalization Group methods we find a convergent expansion for the Schwinger function up to exponentially small temperatures. We prove that the system is not a Fermi liquid, but on the contrary it behaves like a Marginal Fermi liquid, a behaviour observed in the normal phase of high Tc superconductors. 1. Main results 1.1 Motivations. The notion of Fermi liquids, introduced by Landau, refers to a wide class of interacting fermionic systems whose thermodynamic properties (like the specific heat or the resistivity) are qualitatively the same of a gas of non interacting fermions. While there is an enormous number of metals having Fermi liquid behaviour, in recent times new materials has been found whose properties are qualitatively different. In particular the high-temperature superconducting materials (so anisotropic to be considered essentially bidimensional) in their normal phase have a non Fermi liquid behaviour, in striking contrast with previously known superconductors, which are Fermi liquids above the critical temperature.

Low temperature analysis of two dimensional Fermi systems with symmetric Fermi surface

G. Benfatto, Alessandro Giuliani, Vieri Mastropietro

We prove the convergence of the perturbative expansion, based on Renormalization Group, of the two point Schwinger function of a system of weakly interacting fermions in d = 2, with symmetric Fermi surface and up to exponentially small temperatures, close to the expected onset of superconductivity.

Rigorous Proof of Fermi Liquid Behavior for Jellium Two-Dimensional Interacting Fermions

Margherita Disertori, Vincent Rivasseau

Using the method of continuous constructive renormalization group around the Fermi surface, we prove that a jellium two-dimensional interacting system of fermions at low temperature T is analytic in the coupling constant lambda for |lambda| |logT|</=K, where K is some numerical constant and T is the temperature. In that range of parameters, the first and second derivatives of the self-energy remain bounded, a behavior seen in Fermi liquids but, in particular, not in Luttinger liquids. Our results also prove that in 2D any transition temperature must be nonperturbative in the coupling constant, a result expected on physical grounds. The proof exploits specific momentum conservation rules in two dimensions.

Non-Fermi Liquid Behaviors in the Hubbard model on the Honeycomb lattice

Zhituo Wang

In this paper we study the low temperature ($T\rightarrow 0$) behaviors of the weakly interacting Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice with a bare chemical potential, which takes values in a small neighborhood of the renormalized chemical potential $μ$, which is fixed to be $1$. We prove that the two-point Schwinger's function is an analytic function of the coupling constant $λ$ in the domain $|λ|\cdot|\log T|^2<1$. But the ground state of this model is not a Fermi liquid, because analytic properties of self-energy don't satisfy the Salmhofer's criterion on the Fermi liquids at finite temperature.
