Two-loop renormalization group theory for the quasi-one-dimensional Hubbard model at half filling

Abstract

We derive two-loop renormalization group equations for the half filled one-dimensional Hubbard chains coupled by the interchain hopping. Our renormalization group scheme for the quasi-one-dimensional electron system is a natural extension of that for the purely one-dimensional systems in the sense that transverse-momentum dependences are introduced in the $g$-ological coupling constants and we regard the transverse momentum as a patch index. We develop symmetry arguments for the particle-hole symmetric half filled Hubbard model and obtain constraints on the $g$-ological coupling constants by which resultant renormalization equations are given in a compact form. By solving the renormalization group equations numerically, we estimate the magnitude of excitation gaps and clarify that the charge gap is suppressed due to the interchain hopping but is always finite even for the relevant interchain hopping. To show the validity of the present analysis, we also apply this to the two-leg ladder system. By utilizing the field-theoretical Bosonization and Fermionization method, we derive low-energy effective theory and analyze the magnitude of all the excitation gaps in detail. It is shown that the low-energy excitations in the two-leg Hubbard ladder have $\mathrm{SO}(3)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{SO}(3)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{U}(1)$ symmetry when the interchain hopping exceeds the magnitude of the charge gap.

Ground-state and spectral properties of an asymmetric Hubbard ladder

Anas Abdelwahab, Eric Jeckelmann, Martin Hohenadler

We investigate a ladder system with two inequivalent legs, namely, a Hubbard chain and a one-dimensional electron gas. Analytical approximations, the density-matrix renormalization group method, and continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo simulations are used to determine ground-state properties, gaps, and spectral functions of this system at half-filling. Evidence for the existence of four different phases as a function of the Hubbard interaction and the rung hopping is presented. First, a Luttinger liquid exists at very weak interchain hopping. Second, a Kondo-Mott insulator with spin and charge gaps induced by an effective rung exchange coupling is found at moderate interchain hopping or strong Hubbard interaction. Third, a spin-gapped paramagnetic Mott insulator with incommensurate excitations and pairing of doped charges is observed at intermediate values of the rung hopping and the interaction. Fourth, the usual correlated band insulator is recovered for large rung hopping. We show that the wave numbers of the lowest single-particle excitations are different in each insulating phase. In particular, the three gapped phases exhibit markedly different spectral functions. We discuss the relevance of asymmetric two-leg ladder systems as models for atomic wires deposited on a substrate.

Functional renormalization group for fermions on a one dimensional lattice at arbitrary filling

Lucas Désoppi, N. Dupuis, C. Bourbonnais

A formalism based on the fermionic functional-renormalization-group approach to interacting electron models defined on a lattice is presented. One-loop flow equations for the coupling constants and susceptibilities in the particle-particle and particle-hole channels are derived in weak-coupling conditions. It is shown that lattice effects manifest themselves through the curvature of the spectrum and the dependence of the coupling constants on momenta. This method is then applied to the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model; we thoroughly discuss the evolution of the phase diagram, and in particular the fate of the bond-centered charge-density-wave phase, as the system is doped away from half-filling. Our findings are compared to the predictions of the field-theory continuum limit and available numerical results.

Dimensional crossover in half-filled and lightly dopedN-leg Hubbard ladders

Urs Ledermann

We study the dimensional crossover from one to two dimensions in half-filled and lightly doped, weakly interacting N-leg Hubbard ladders. In this case, the Hubbard ladders are equivalent to an N-band model. Using renormalization-group techniques, we find that the half-filled ladders exhibit (in the spin sector) an odd-even effect only below a crossover energy ${E}_{c}\ensuremath{\propto}\mathrm{exp}[\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\alpha}\mathrm{exp}(\ensuremath{\gamma}N)]$ $(\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\ll}1$ and $\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\sim}1$ depend on the interaction strength and on the hopping matrix elements): Below ${E}_{c},$ the dominant interactions take place within band pairs $(j,N+1\ensuremath{-}j)$ [and within the band $(N+1)/2$ for N odd], such that even-leg ladders are an insulating spin liquid, while odd-leg ladders have one gapless spinon mode. In contrast, above the energy scale ${E}_{c},$ all bands are interacting with each other and the system is a two-dimensional- (2D)-like (insulating) antiferromagnet; we obtain an analytical expression for the Hamiltonian which is similar to the 2D Heisenberg antiferromagnet. Bosonization techniques show that in the charge sector the Mott insulator is as well below and above ${E}_{c}$ of the same type as in $N/2$ half-filled two-leg ladders. Doping away from half-filling, we find that the effect of an increasing doping $\ensuremath{\delta}$ is very similar to decreasing the number of legs N: In both cases interactions between unpaired bands are suppressed and thereby the antiferromagnetic correlations reduced. The resulting band pairs form then insulating spin liquids and when doped, there is a spin gap, but phase coherence exists only within the band pairs. At higher doping levels ${\ensuremath{\delta}}_{c}={\ensuremath{\delta}}_{c}(N),$ phase coherence between all band pairs sets in and the system becomes a 2D-like d-wave superconductor $[{\ensuremath{\delta}}_{c}(N)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$ for $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{N}\ensuremath{\infty}].$

Real-space renormalization-group study of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Jesús Pérez-Conde, Pierre M. Pfeuty

The one-band two-dimensional Hubbard Hamiltonian is analyzed using a real-space renormalization-group block method. The renormalization-group method, previously applied to the one-dimensional case has been extended to two dimensions. It is also shown how to avoid the proliferation of new terms during the process if the shape of the blocks and the symmetries of the kept states are chosen conveniently. We characterize the ground state by its energy per site, the gap of charge excitations, the double occupancy, and the effective hopping. The system shows an insulating behavior in the case of half filling for all nonzero interaction parameter, U, if the hopping is isotropic (${\mathit{t}}_{\mathit{y}}$=${\mathit{t}}_{\mathit{x}}$); that is to say, the gap opens for all positive U, as in the one-dimensional case. If the hopping anisotropy, \ensuremath{\alpha}=${\mathit{t}}_{\mathit{y}}$/${\mathit{t}}_{\mathit{x}}$, is different from the unity and zero the ground state is a conductor up to a critical value (U/t${)}_{\mathit{c}1}$, which depends on \ensuremath{\alpha}. We have analyzed in the same way another filling, n=7/9. The system behaves as a conductor, paramagnetic up to a value (U/t${)}_{\mathit{c}2}$\ensuremath{\sim}2 and weakly ferromagnetic for higher values of U.

Interplay of Correlation, Randomness and Dimensionality Effects in Weakly-Coupled Half-Filled Random Hubbard Chains

Jun‐ichiro Kishine, Kenji Yonemitsu

We study interplay of electronic correlation, randomness and dimensionality effects in half-filled random Hubbard chains weakly coupled via an interchain one-particle hopping. Based on the two-loop renormalization-group approach, phase diagrams are given in terms of temperature vs. strengths of the intrachain electron-electron umklapp scattering, the random scattering and the interchain one-particle hopping.

Charge Gap and Interchain Correlation in Quasi-One-Dimensional Dimerized Organic Conductors

Kenji Yonemitsu

We study the relation between the charge gap and the interchain one-body correlation function in quasi-one-dimensional dimerized organic conductors at quarter filling, by applying the density matrix renormalization group method to a three-chain extended Hubbard model. The charge gap increases with the degree of dimerization in the intrachain hopping integrals. When the charge gap is larger than the interchain hopping integral, the interchain hopping correlation is strongly suppressed, as observed in the (TMTTF)2X salts.
