Scattering mechanisms and spectral properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard model

Abstract

It is found that the finite-energy spectral properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard model are controlled by the scattering of charged $η$-spin-zero $2ν$-holon composite objects, spin-zero $2ν$-spinon composite objects, and charged $η$-spin-less and spin-less objects, rather than by the scattering of independent $η$-spin 1/2 holons and spin 1/2 spinons. Here $ν=1,2,...$. The corresponding $S$ matrix is calculated and its relation to the spectral properties is clarified.

Finite-Energy Pseudoparticle Theory for the 1D Hubbard Model II: Holon and Spinon Dominant Processes for the Few-Electron Spectral Weight Properties

J. M. P. Carmelo, Karlo Penc

In the first paper of this series it was found that the $η$-spin 1/2 holons, spin 1/2 spinons, and $c$ pseudoparticles whose occupancy configurations describe the energy eigenstates of the one-dimensional Hubbard model emerge from the electron - rotated-electron unitary transformation. In this second paper we discuss and clarify how the relation of the electrons to the above objects can be used in a program for evaluation of finite-energy few-electron spectral functions. As a first step, here we characterize the dominant holon and spinon microscopic physical processes that originate more than 99% of the few-electron spectral weight. These dominant processes are related to exact selection rules for the values of the number of holons and spinons generated or annihilated by application onto a ground state of rotated-electron operators. We also generalize the concepts of a lower Hubbard band and upper Hubbard bands to all values of on-site Coulombian repulsion.

Scattering theories for the 1D Hubbard model

J. M. P. Carmelo, Katrina Hibberd, Natan Andrei

In one-dimensional (1D) non-perturbative many-electron problems such as the 1D Hubbard model the electronic charge and spin degrees of freedom separate into exotic quantum objects. However, there are two different representations for such objects and associated scattering quantities whose relation is not well understood. Here we solve the problem by finding important information about the relation between the corresponding alternative choices for one-particle scattering states. Our study reveals why one of these representations, the {\it pseudofermion} representation, is the most suitable for the description of the unusual finite-energy spectral and dynamical properties of the model. This is a problem of physical importance, since the exotic independent charge and spin finite-energy spectral features observed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy in quasi-1D metals was found recently to correspond to the charge and spin quantum objects of the pseudofermion representation.

1D Hubbard model elementary objects scattering

J. M. P. Carmelo, Pedro D Sacramento

In terms of electron processes, the 1D Hubbard model is a nonperturbative problem. That renders the description in terms of electron scattering of the microscopic processes that control the model properties a very difficult task. In this paper we study the corresponding scattering processes of the elementary objects whose occupancy configurations generate the energy eigenstates from the electron vacuum. Due to the related occurrence of an infinite set of conservation laws associated with the model integrability, such objects are found to undergo only zero-momentum forward-scattering collisions. The description of the model dynamical properties in terms of such elementary objects scattering events then drastically simplifies. The corresponding 1D Hubbard model scattering theory refers to arbitrary values of the densities and finite repulsive interaction U>0. Each ground-state - excited-state transition is associated with a well defined set of elementary zero-momentum forward-scattering events. The elementary-object scatterers dressed S matrix is expressed as a commutative product of S matrices, each corresponding to a two-object scattering event. This commutative factorization is stronger than the factorization associated with Yang-Baxter equation for the original spin-1/2 electron bare S matrix. The power-law singularities exponents in the finite-energy correlation-functions of the metallic phases of a wide class of 1D integrable and non-integrable systems are momentum dependent. In the present exactly solvable model such an exponent momentum dependence is controlled by the phase shifts and corresponding dressed S matrix considered in this paper.

Spectral Properties near the Mott Transition in the One-Dimensional Hubbard Model

Masanori Kohno

The single-particle spectral properties near the Mott transition in the one-dimensional Hubbard model are investigated by using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method and the Bethe ansatz. The pseudogap, hole-pocket behavior, spectral-weight transfer, and upper Hubbard band are explained in terms of spinons, holons, antiholons, and doublons. The Mott transition is characterized by the emergence of a gapless mode whose dispersion relation extends up to the order of hopping t (spin exchange J) in the weak (strong) interaction regime caused by infinitesimal doping.

Elementary objects of the 1D Hubbard model

J. M. P. Carmelo

Exotic elementary objects such as "holons" and "spinons", which are widely used in descriptions of correlated electrons in reduced spatial dimensions, were introduced from analysis of the excitation branches of one-dimensional (1D) models. The 1D Hubbard model with effective nearest-neighbor hopping integral t and on-site repulsion U is a prominent example. In the last twenty years a large number of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments as well as electron energy-loss spectroscopic studies and high-resolution resonant inelastic X-ray experiments on several quasi-1D metals and quasi-1D Mott-Hubbard insulators have observed separate charge and spin spectral features, which have been identified with "holons" and "spinons". The elementary objects emerging within non-perturbative 1D correlated systems play now the same role in actual low-dimensional materials as Fermi-liquid quasiparticles in three-dimensional metals. The main goal of this paper is the review of representations of the 1D Hubbard model physics in terms of elementary objects whose configurations generate the energy eigenstates from the electron or hole vacuum. In addition, the relation to the holon and spinon representations is discussed and clarified.

Interplay of charge, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom in the spectral properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model

Alberto Nocera, Mohammad Soltanieh-ha, C. A. Perroni +2 more

We calculate the spectral function of the one-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model using the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group, focusing on the regime of large local Coulomb repulsion, and away from electronic half-filling. We argue that, from weak to intermediate electron-phonon coupling, phonons interact only with the electronic charge, and not with the spin degrees of freedom. For strong electron-phonon interaction, spinon and holon bands are not discernible anymore and the system is well described by a spinless polaronic liquid. In this regime, we observe multiple peaks in the spectrum with an energy separation corresponding to the energy of the lattice vibrations (i.e., phonons). We support the numerical results by introducing a well controlled analytical approach based on Ogata-Shiba's factorized wave function, showing that the spectrum can be understood as a convolution of three contributions, originating from charge, spin, and lattice sectors. We recognize and interpret these signatures in the spectral properties and discuss the experimental implications.
