Abstract

By the bosonization and renormalization-group schemes, a half-filled Hubbard chain with density-dependent hopping is investigated at weak coupling. The model involved has an electron–hole symmetry and an SO(4) symmetry. The phase diagram consists of three different phases divided by a charge transition at on-site repulsion U = U c and a spin transition at U = U s , with U s = − U c = 16 π ( t c − 1 ) , including a Mott insulator with the SDW correlation, a dimerized insulator with the BCDW correlation, and a Luttinger metal with the coexisting TS and BSDW correlations. The effective three-body repulsion ( t c − 1 > 0 ) and attraction ( t c − 1 < 0 ) induce the dimerized and metallic phases, respectively. • We study a 1D Hubbard model with symmetric density-dependent hopping analytically. • We provide a theoretical scheme of realization of the BCDW and TS instabilities. • The results supplement further understanding of quantum properties of 1D correlated systems.

Ground-state instabilities in a Hubbard-type chain with particular correlated hopping at non-half-filling

Weiting Chen, Jun Zhang, Hanqin Ding

At non-half-filling, a one-dimensional interacting electronic model (t–U–R) is studied analytically. The particular correlated hopping keeps particle–hole symmetry of the Hubbard model. Physically, the model involved is equivalent to an extended Hubbard chain incorporating a two-body (X) and a three-body (X˜) site-bond interactions with X˜=2X. The analysis of weak-coupling theory leads to the ground-state phase diagram, which consists of three types of metallic phases, characterized by the charge- (CDW) and spin-density-wave (SDW) and singlet-superconductivity (SS) instabilities.

Phase diagram of a generalized Penson–Kolb–Hubbard chain with the occupation-dependent hopping

Jing Xia Yu, Hanqin Ding

At half filling, we study analytically a one-dimensional correlated electronic system modeled by an extended Penson–Kolb–Hubbard (PKH) chain with the occupation-dependent hopping. The modification of the electron hopping amplitude is exhibited to induce the additional correlated-hopping interactions. At weak coupling, we use the field theory to obtain ground-state phase diagram, including the SDW, BCDW, BSDW, SS and TS phases for U>0. The induced three-body attractive interaction accounts for the superconductivity absent in the usual PKH model.

Theoretical investigation of four-body interaction in the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model

Weiting Chen, Hanqin Ding, Jun Zhang

In the weak-coupling regime, we analytically investigate phase diagram of a one-dimensional half-filled extended Hubbard model with nearest neighboring four-electron interaction (Q), in addition to the usual two-electron couplings (U,V>0). The additional four-electron coupling splits independent Gaussian and spin-gap transitions and also leads to the charge-gap transition. For the positive Q, the ground state exhibits three insulating phases, charge-density-wave (CDW), spin-density-wave (SDW) and bond-spin-density-wave (BSDW). For the negative Q, the phase diagram consists of five phases, which, besides the SDW and CDW phases, contain bond-charge-density-wave (BCDW), Luttinger liquid (LL) and Luther–Emery (LE) phases.

EFFECT OF CORRELATED-HOPPING INTERACTION ON A ONE-DIMENSIONAL EXTENDED HUBBARD MODEL WITH SPIN-EXCHANGE INTERACTION

Hanqin Ding, Jun Zhang

By using the field-theoretical techniques combining bosonization with renormalization group, we study a one-dimensional (1D) model of interacting electrons with on-site repulsion (U > 0), nearest-neighbor (nn) exchange (J) and correlated-hopping (t2, t3) interactions at weak coupling. In the case of a half-filled band, the two-body interaction t2 does not influence phase diagram of the model, while the presence of three-body interaction t3 makes the physics of the system highly non-trivial. By a Hartree–Fock decoupling, the effects of t3 bring about hopping of pairs, V-like (nn Coulomb interaction) and isotropic exchange terms in the reduced model Hamiltonian. Interestingly, a negative t3 provides a possibility for the occurrence of the triplet superconductivity in 1D system with purely repulsive interactions (U, J > 0). The ground state phase diagram including the insulating and superconducting phases is discussed analytically.

Phase diagram of the ionic Hubbard model with density-dependent hopping

P. Roura-Bas, Armando A. Aligia

We obtain the quantum phase diagram of the ionic Hubbard model including electron-hole symmetric density-dependent hopping. The boundaries of the phases are determined by crossings of excited levels with particular discrete symmetries, which coincide with jumps of charge and spin Berry phases with a topological meaning. Reducing the magnitude of the hopping terms that do not change the total number of singly occupied sites with respect to the other one, the region of the phase diagram occupied by the fully gapped spontaneously dimerized insulator (which separates the band insulating and Mott insulating phases) is enlarged, particularly for small values of the alternating on-site energy. This result might be relevant for experiments in cold atoms in which topological charge pumping is observed when alternation in the hopping is included.
