Relationship between Single-Particle Excitation and Spin Excitation at the Mott Transition
Masanori Kohno
An intuitive interpretation of the relationship between the dispersion relation of the single-particle excitation in a metal and that of the spin excitation in a Mott insulator is presented, based on the results for the one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models obtained by using the Bethe ansatz, dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method, and cluster perturbation theory. The dispersion relation of the spin excitation in the Mott insulator is naturally constructed from that of the single-particle excitation in the zero-doping limit in both one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models, which allows us to interpret the doping-induced states as the states that lose charge character toward the Mott transition. The characteristic feature of the Mott transition is contrasted with the feature of a Fermi liquid and that of the transition between a band insulator and a metal.
