Hubbard physics in the symmetric half-filled periodic anderson-hubbard model

Abstract

Two very different methods – exact diagonalization on finite chains and a variational method – are used to study the possibility of a metal-insulator transition in the symmetric half-filled periodic Anderson-Hubbard model. With this aim we calculate the density of doubly occupied d sites (νd) as a function of various parameters. In the absence of on-site Coulomb interaction (Uf ) between f electrons, the two methods yield similar results. The double occupancy of d levels remains always finite just as in the one-dimensional Hubbard model. Exact diagonalization on finite chains gives the same result for finite Uf , while the Gutzwiller method leads to a Brinkman-Rice transition at a critical value (U c d ), which depends on Uf and V .

Two very different methods — exact diagonalization on finite chains and a variational method — are used to study the possibility of a metal-insulator transition in the symmetric half-filled periodic Anderson-Hubbard model. With this aim we calculate the density of doubly occupied d sites (gn d ) as a function of various parameters. In the absence of on-site Coulomb interaction (U f ) between f electrons, the two methods yield similar results. The double occupancy of d levels remains always finite just as in the one-dimensional Hubbard model. Exact diagonalization on finite chains gives the same result for finite U f , while the Gutzwiller method leads to a Brinkman-Rice transition at a critical value (U ), which depends on U f and V.

Periodic Anderson model with correlated conduction electrons: Variational and exact diagonalization study

Imre Hagymási, K. Itai, Jenő Sólyom

We investigate an extended version of the periodic Anderson model (the so-called periodic Anderson-Hubbard model) with the aim to understand the role of interaction between conduction electrons in the formation of the heavy-fermion and mixed-valence states. Two methods are used: (i) variational calculation with the Gutzwiller wave function optimizing numerically the ground-state energy and (ii) exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian for short chains. The $f$-level occupancy and the renormalization factor of the quasiparticles are calculated as a function of the energy of the $f$ orbital for a wide range of the interaction parameters. The results obtained by the two methods are in reasonably good agreement for the periodic Anderson model. The agreement is maintained even when the interaction between band electrons, ${U}_{d}$, is taken into account, except for the half-filled case. This discrepancy can be explained by the difference between the physics of the one- and higher-dimensional models. We find that this interaction shifts and widens the energy range of the bare $f$ level, where heavy-fermion behavior can be observed. For large-enough ${U}_{d}$ this range may lie even above the bare conduction band. The Gutzwiller method indicates a robust transition from Kondo insulator to Mott insulator in the half-filled model, while ${U}_{d}$ enhances the quasiparticle mass when the filling is close to half filling.

Variational Monte Carlo Studies of the Hubbard Model in One- and Two-Dimensions –Off-Diagonal Intersite Correlation Effects–

Hiromi Otsuka

We investigate the ground state properties of the one- and the two-dimensional Hubbard models using a new variational Monte Carlo method. By generalizing the Gutzwiller variational wave function (GF) to take into account an off-diagonal intersite correlation, we examine the metal-insulator transition mechanism at the half filling. As Kaplan et al. first pointed out, the binding mechanism between doubly occupied sites and empty sites plays a crucial role for this transition; we confirm this by examining the real space correlation function between these two kinds of sites. Results for the spin and the charge structure factors are presented as well as the momentum distribution function and are discussed in connection with the pairing effect. We also find that in less-than half filling, the improvements of the structure factors at 2 k F are realized as compared with GF results.

Approximate solution of variational wave functions for strongly correlated systems: Description of bound excitons in metals and insulators

Balázs Hetényi

An approximate solution scheme, similar to the Gutzwiller approximation, is presented for the Baeriswyl and the Baeriswyl-Gutzwiller variational wave functions. The phase diagram of the one-dimensional Hubbard model as a function of interaction strength and particle density is determined. For the Baeriswyl wave function a metal-insulator transition is found at half filling, where the metallic phase $(U<{U}_{c})$ corresponds to the Hartree-Fock solution, the insulating phase is one with finite double occupations arising from bound excitons. This transition can be viewed as the ``inverse'' of the Brinkman-Rice transition. Close to but away from half filling, the $U>{U}_{c}$ phase displays a finite Fermi step, as well as double occupations originating from bound excitons. As the filling is changed away from half-filling bound excitons are suppressed. For the Baeriswyl-Gutzwiller wave function at half filling a metal-insulator transition between the correlated metallic and excitonic insulating state is found. Away from half-filling bound excitons are suppressed quicker than for the Baeriswyl wave function.

Anderson-Mott transition in a disordered Hubbard chain with correlated hopping

Francesca Battista, Alberto Camjayi, Liliana Arrachea

We study the ground-state phase diagram of the Anderson-Hubbard model with correlated hopping at half-filling in one dimension. The Hamiltonian has a local Coulomb repulsion $U$ and a disorder potential with local energies randomly distributed in the interval $(\ensuremath{-}W,+W)$ with equal probability, acting on the singly occupied sites. The hopping process which modifies the number of doubly occupied sites is forbidden. The hopping between nearest-neighbor singly occupied and empty sites or between singly occupied and doubly occupied sites has the same amplitude $t$. We identify three different phases as functions of the disorder amplitude $W$ and Coulomb interaction strength $U>0$. When $U<4t$ the system shows a metallic phase: (i) only when no disorder is present $W=0$ or an Anderson-localized phase, (ii) when disorder is introduced $W\ensuremath{\ne}0$. When $U>4t$ the Anderson-localized phase survives as long as disorder effects dominate on the interaction effects, otherwise a Mott-insulator phase (iii) arises. Phases (i) and (ii) are characterized by a finite density of doublons and a vanishing charge gap among the ground state and the excited states. Phase (iii) is characterized by the vanishing density of doublons and a finite gap for the charge excitations.

Mott transition in the asymmetric hubbard model at half-filling: Equation of motion approach

Anh-Tuan Hoang, Thi-Thu-Trang Tran, Duc‐Anh Le

We investigate the Mott metal-insulator transition in the asymmetric Hubbard model, which may describe the ground states of fermionic atoms trapped in optical lattices. We use the dynamical mean-field theory and the equation of motion approach to calculate the density of states at the Fermi level and the double occupation for various values of the on-site interaction U and the hopping asymmetry r . The critical interaction is also obtained as a function of the hopping asymmetry. Our results are in good agreement with the ones obtained by using the dynamical mean field theory with the exact diagonalization and the quantum Monte Carlo techniques.

We study the ground-state phase diagram of the Anderson-Hubbard model with correlated hopping at half-filling in one dimension. The Hamiltonian has a local Coulomb repulsion UUU and a disorder potential with local energies randomly distributed in the interval $(\ensuremath{-}W,+W)$ with equal probability, acting on the singly occupied sites. The hopping process which modifies the number of doubly occupied sites is forbidden. The hopping between nearest-neighbor singly occupied and empty sites or between singly occupied and doubly occupied sites has the same amplitude ttt. We identify three different phases as functions of the disorder amplitude WWW and Coulomb interaction strength U>0U>0U>0. When U<4tU<4tU<4t the system shows a metallic phase: (i) only when no disorder is present W=0W=0W=0 or an Anderson-localized phase, (ii) when disorder is introduced $W\ensuremath{\ne}0$. When U>4tU>4tU>4t the Anderson-localized phase survives as long as disorder effects dominate on the interaction effects, otherwise a Mott-insulator phase (iii) arises. Phases (i) and (ii) are characterized by a finite density of doublons and a vanishing charge gap among the ground state and the excited states.
