In this paper, we revisit the antiferromagnetic (AF) phase diagram of the single-band three-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model on a simple cubic lattice studied within the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). Although this problem has been investigated extensively in the literature, a comprehensive understanding of the impact of the different one- and, in particular, two-particle local correlation functions of DMFT on the AF transition temperature is still missing. We have, hence, performed a fluctuation diagnostics of $T_N$ with respect to different local bosonic fluctuations (charge, spin, particle-particle) contained in the two-particle vertex of DMFT. Our results indicate that, beyond weak coupling, the screening of the DMFT vertex by local fluctuations leads to an enhancement of $T_N$ with respect to a random phase approximation (RPA) like calculation where this vertex is replaced by the bare interaction. The overall suppression of $T_N$ in DMFT with respect to RPA is then solely due to the incoherence introduced by the DMFT self-energy in the one-particle Green's functions. This illustrates the Janus faced role of the local moment formation in the DMFT solution of the Hubbard model which leads to completely opposite effects in the one- and two-particle correlations functions.In this paper, we revisit the antiferromagnetic (AF) phase diagram of the single-band three-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model on a simple cubic lattice studied within the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT).

Quantum Monte Carlo calculation of the finite temperature Mott-Hubbard transition

Jaewook Joo, V. S. Oudovenko

We present clear numerical evidence for the coexistence of metallic and insulating dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) solutions in a half-filled single-band Hubbard model at finite temperature. The quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method is used to solve the DMFT equation. We discuss important technical aspects of the DMFT-QMC method, which should be properly dealt with in order to obtain reliable DMFT solutions at low temperatures. Among these technical aspects are the critical slowing down near the boundaries of the coexistence region, the convergence criteria for the DMFT iterations, and the correct interpolation of the discretized Green's functions.We present clear numerical evidence for the coexistence of metallic and insulating dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) solutions in a half-filled single-band Hubbard model at finite temperature.

Nonadiabatic Exchange-Correlation Potential for Strongly Correlated Materials in the Weak and Strong Interaction Limits

Volodymyr Turkowski, Talat Shahnaz Rahman

In this work, nonadiabatic exchange-correlation (XC) potentials for time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) for strongly correlated materials are derived in the limits of strong and weak correlations. After summarizing some essentials of the available dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) XC potentials valid for these systems, we present details of the Sham–Schluter equation approach that we use to obtain, in principle, an exact XC potential from a many-body theory solution for the nonequilibrium electron self-energy. We derive the XC potentials for the one-band Hubbard model in the limits of weak and strong on-site Coulomb repulsion. To test the accuracy of the obtained potentials, we compare the TDDFT results obtained with these potentials with the corresponding nonequilibrium DMFT solution for the one-band Hubbard model and find that the agreement between the solutions is rather good. We also discuss possible directions to obtain a universal XC potential that would be appropriate for the case of intermediate interaction strengths, i.e., a nonadiabatic potential that can be used to perform TDDFT analysis of nonequilibrium phenomena, such as transport and other ultrafast properties of materials with any strength of electron correlation at any value in the applied perturbing field.In this work, nonadiabatic exchange-correlation (XC) potentials for time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) for strongly correlated materials are derived in the limits of strong and weak correlations.
