Abstract

We present a method based on the combination of analytical and numerical techniques within the framework of the dynamical mean-field theory. Building upon numerically exact results obtained in an improved quantum Monte Carlo scheme, tenth-order strong-coupling perturbation theory for the Hubbard model on the Bethe lattice is extrapolated to infinite order. We obtain continuous estimates of energy $E$ and double occupancy $D$ with unprecedented precision $\mathcal{O}({10}^{\ensuremath{-}5})$ for the Mott insulator above its stability edge ${U}_{c1}\ensuremath{\approx}4.78$ as well as critical exponents. The relevance for recent experiments on Cr-doped ${\mathrm{V}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ is pointed out.

Comparison of computer-algebra strong-coupling perturbation theory and dynamical mean-field theory for the Mott-Hubbard insulator in high dimensions

Martin Paech, W. Apel, Eva Kalinowski +1 more

We present a large-scale combinatorial-diagrammatic computation of high-order contributions to the strong-coupling Kato-Takahashi perturbation series for the Hubbard model in high dimensions. The ground-state energy of the Mott-insulating phase is determined exactly up to the 15th order in $1/U$. The perturbation expansion is extrapolated to infinite order and the critical behavior is determined using the Domb-Sykes method. We compare the perturbative results with two dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) calculations using a quantum Monte Carlo method and a density-matrix renormalization group method as impurity solvers. The comparison demonstrates the excellent agreement and accuracy of both extrapolated strong-coupling perturbation theory and quantum Monte Carlo based DMFT, even close to the critical coupling where the Mott insulator becomes unstable.

Strong-coupling approach to the Mott-Hubbard insulator on a Bethe lattice in dynamical mean-field theory

Daniel Ruhl, Florian Gebhard

We calculate the Hubbard bands for the half-filled Hubbard model on a Bethe lattice with an infinite coordination number up to and including third order in the inverse Hubbard interaction. We employ the Kato-Takahashi perturbation theory to solve the self-consistency equation of the dynamical mean-field theory analytically for the single-impurity Anderson model in multichain geometry. The weight of the secondary Hubbard sub-bands is of fourth order so that the two-chain geometry is sufficient for our study. Our results for the Mott-Hubbard gap and the density of states of the lower Hubbard band agree very well with those from numerical dynamical density-matrix renormalization group calculations, apart from a resonance contribution at the upper band edge, which cannot be reproduced in low-order perturbation theory.

Mott-Hubbard Insulator in Infinite Dimensions

Eva Kalinowski, Florian Gebhard

We calculate the one-particle density of states for the Mott-Hubbard insulating phase of the Hubbard model on a Bethe lattice in the limit of infinite coordination number. We employ the Kato-Takahashi perturbation theory around the strong-coupling limit to derive the Green function. We show that the Green function for the lower Hubbard band can be expressed in terms of polynomials in the bare hole-hopping operator. We check our technique against the exact solution of the Falicov-Kimball model and give explicit results up to and including second order in the inverse Hubbard interaction. Our results provide a stringent test for analytical and numerical investigations of the Mott-Hubbard insulator and the Mott-Hubbard transition within the dynamical mean-field theory. We find that the Hubbard-III approximation is not satisfactory beyond lowest order, but the local-moment approach provides a very good description of the Mott-Hubbard insulator at strong coupling.

Strong-coupling solver for the quantum impurity model

Xi Dai, Kristjan Haule, Gabriel Kotliar

We propose a fast impurity solver for the general quantum impurity model based on the perturbation theory around the atomic limit, which can be used in combination with the local density approximation (LDA) and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). We benchmark the solver in the two-band Hubbard model within DMFT against quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) and numerical renormalization-group (NRG) results. We find that the solver works very well in the paramagnetic Mott insulator phase. We also apply this impurity solver to the DMFT study of the antiferromagnetic phase transition in the unfrustrated Bethe lattice. The Neel temperature obtained by the fast impurity solver agrees very well with the QMC results in the large Hubbard U limit. The method is a promising tool to be used in combination with the $\mathrm{LDA}+\mathrm{DMFT}$ to study Mott insulators starting from first principles.

Exact diagonalization solver for extended dynamical mean-field theory

Darya Medvedeva, Sergei Iskakov, Friedrich Krien +2 more

We present an efficient exact diagonalization scheme for the extended dynamical mean-field theory and apply it to the extended Hubbard model on the square lattice with nonlocal charge-charge interactions. Our solver reproduces the phase diagram of this approximation with good accuracy. Details on the numerical treatment of the large Hilbert space of the auxiliary Holstein-Anderson impurity problem are provided. Benchmarks with a numerically exact strong-coupling continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo solver show better convergence behavior of the exact diagonalization in the deep insulator. Special attention is given to possible effects due to the discretization of the bosonic bath. We discuss the quality of real axis spectra and address the question of screening in the Mott insulator within extended dynamical mean-field theory.

Strong-coupling expansion for the spin-1 Bose-Hubbard model

T. Kimura

In this study, we perform a strong-coupling expansion up to third order of the hopping parameter $t$ for the spin-1 Bose-Hubbard model with antiferromagnetic interaction. As expected from previous studies, the Mott-insulator phase is considerably more stable against the superfluid phase when filling with an even number of bosons than when filling with an odd number of bosons. The phase-boundary curves are consistent with the perturbative mean-field theory in the limit of infinite dimensions. The critical value of the hopping parameter ${t}_{\mathrm{C}}$ at the peak of the Mott lobe depends on the antiferromagnetic interaction. This result indicates the reliability of the strong-coupling expansion when ${U}_{2}$ possesses large (intermediate) values for Mott lobe with an even (odd) number of bosons. Moreover, in order to improve our results, we apply a few extrapolation methods up to infinite order in $t$. The fitting results of the phase-boundary curves agree better with those of the perturbative mean-field approximation. In addition, the linear fit error of ${t}_{\mathrm{C}}$ is very small for the strong antiferromagnetic interaction.
