EQUATION-OF-MOTION APPROACH TO DYNAMICAL MEAN FIELD THEORY

Abstract

We propose using an equation-of-motion approach as an impurity solver for dynamical mean field theory. As an illustration of this technique, we consider a finite-U Hubbard model defined on the Bethe lattice with infinite connectivity at arbitrary filling. Depending on the filling, the spectra that is obtained exhibits a quasiparticle peak, and lower and upper Hubbard bands as typical features of strongly correlated materials. The results are also compared and in good agreement with exact diagonalization. We also find a different picture of the spectral weight transfer than the iterative perturbation theory.

Decoupling method for dynamical mean-field theory calculations

Harald O. Jeschke, Gabriel Kotliar

In this paper we explore the use of an equation of motion decoupling method as an impurity solver to be used in conjunction with the dynamical mean field self-consistency condition for the solution of lattice models. We benchmark the impurity solver against exact diagonalization, and apply the method to study the infinite $U$ Hubbard model, the periodic Anderson model and the $pd$ model. This simple and numerically efficient approach yields the spectra expected for strongly correlated materials, with a quasiparticle peak and a Hubbard band. It works in a large range of parameters, and therefore can be used for the exploration of real materials using the local density approximation and dynamical mean field theory.

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.

TRANSPORT AND SPECTRA IN THE HALF-FILLED HUBBARD MODEL: A DYNAMICAL MEAN FIELD STUDY

Himadri Barman, N. S. Vidhyadhiraja

We present an improved numerical implementation of the iterated perturbation theory, for use as an impurity solver for lattice models within dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). We demonstrate higher resolution of spectral and transport features and a reduced computational expense. Using this implementation, we study the issues of scaling and universality in spectral and transport properties of the particle-hole symmetric Hubbard model within DMFT. We re-examine experimental results for pressure-dependent resistivity in Selenium doped NiS2and thermal hysteresis on V2O3and find qualitative agreement. A systematic study of spectral weight transfer in optical conductivity is carried out.

Hierarchical equations of motion for an impurity solver in dynamical mean-field theory

Dong Hou, Rulin Wang, Xiao Hong Zheng +3 more

A nonperturbative quantum impurity solver is proposed based on a formally exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) formalism for open quantum systems. It leads to quantitatively accurate evaluation of physical properties of strongly correlated electronic systems, in the framework of dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). The HEOM method is also numerically convenient to achieve the same level of accuracy as that using the state-of-the-art numerical renormalization group impurity solver at finite temperatures. The practicality of the HEOM+DMFT method is demonstrated by its applications to the Hubbard models with Bethe and hypercubic lattice structures. We investigate the metal-insulator transition phenomena, and address the effects of temperature on the properties of strongly correlated lattice systems.

Fast multi-orbital equation of motion impurity solver for dynamical mean field theory

Qingguo Feng, Peter M Oppeneer

We propose a fast multi-orbital impurity solver for dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). Our DMFT solver is based on the equations of motion (EOMs) for local Green's functions and is constructed by generalizing from the single-orbital case to the multi-orbital case with the inclusion of the inter-orbital hybridizations and applying a mean field approximation to the inter-orbital Coulomb interactions. The two-orbital Hubbard model is studied using this impurity solver within a large range of parameters. The Mott metal-insulator transition and the quasiparticle peak are well described. A comparison of the EOM method with the quantum Monte Carlo method is made for the two-orbital Hubbard model and good agreement is obtained. The developed method hence holds promise as a fast DMFT impurity solver in studies of strongly correlated systems.

Local moment approach as a quantum impurity solver for the Hubbard model

Himadri Barman

The local moment approach (LMA) has presented itself as a powerful semianalytical quantum impurity solver (QIS) in the context of the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) for the periodic Anderson model and it correctly captures the low-energy Kondo scale for the single impurity model, having excellent agreement with the Bethe ansatz and numerical renormalization group (NRG) results. However, the most common correlated lattice model, the Hubbard model, has not been explored well within the LMA+DMFT framework beyond the insulating phase. Here in our work, within the framework we complete the filling-interaction phase diagram of the single band Hubbard model at zero temperature. Our formalism is generic to any particle filling and can be extended to finite temperature. We contrast our results with another QIS, namely the iterated perturbation theory (IPT) and show that the second spectral moment sum rule improves better as the Hubbard interaction strength grows stronger in LMA, whereas it severely breaks down after the Mott transition in IPT. For the metallic case, the Fermi liquid (FL) scaling agreement with the NRG spectral density supports the fact that the FL scale emerges from the inherent Kondo physics of the impurity model. We also show that, in the metallic phase, the FL scaling of the spectral density leads to universality which extends to infinite frequency range at infinite correlation strength (strong coupling). At large interaction strength, the off half-filling spectral density forms a pseudogap near the Fermi level and filling-controlled Mott transition occurs as one approaches the half-filling. As a response property, we finally study the zero temperature optical conductivity and find universal features such as absorption peak position governed by the FL scale and a doping independent crossing point, often dubbed the isosbestic point in experiments.
