One-dimensional Hubbard model at quarter filling on periodic potentials

Abstract

Using the Hubbard chain at quarter filling as a model system, we study the ground state properties of highly doped antiferromagnets. In particular, the Hubbard chain at quarter filling is unstable against $2{k}_{F}$- and $4{k}_{F}$-periodic potentials, leading to a large variety of charge and spin ordered ground states. Employing the density matrix renormalization group method, we compare the energy gain of the ground state induced by different periodic potentials. For interacting systems the lowest energy is found for a $2{k}_{F}$-periodic magnetic field, resulting in a band insulator with spin gap. For strong interaction, the $4{k}_{F}$-periodic potential leads to a half-filled Heisenberg chain and thus to a Mott insulating state without spin gap. This ground state is more stable than the band insulating state caused by any non-magnetic $2{k}_{F}$-periodic potential. Adding more electrons, a cluster-like ordering is preferred.

Mott insulating state in a quarter-filled two-orbital Hubbard chain with different bandwidths

Satoshi Miyashita, Yasufumi Yamashita, Kenji Yonemitsu +2 more

We investigate the ground-state properties of the one-dimensional two-band Hubbard model with different bandwidths. The density-matrix renormalization group method is applied to calculate the averaged electron occupancies $n$ as a function of the chemical potential $μ$. Both at quarter and half fillings, "charge plateaux" appear in the $n$-$μ$ plot, where $dμ/dn$ diverges and the Mott insulating states are realized. To see how the orbital polarization in the one-quarter charge plateau develops, we apply the second-order perturbation theory from the strong-coupling limit at quarter filling. The resultant Kugel-Khomskii spin-orbital model includes a $magnetic$ field coupled to orbital pseudo-spins. This field originates from the discrepancy between the two bandwidths and leads to a finite orbital pseudo-spin magnetization.

Effect of band filling on symmetric and asymmetric one-dimensional periodic Anderson model

Yan Luo, Nicholas Kioussis

We have studied the ground-state properties of the symmetric and asymmetric one-dimensional periodic Anderson model as a function of band filling and the model parameters $(V,U,$and ${E}_{f})$ using the local mean-field (LMF) approach. We have constructed the phase diagram for both cases and have calculated the energy, local moment, and occupation number of the f level. The LMF approach can reveal the basic properties of the system throughout the entire parameter space. For the symmetric case ${(E}_{f}=\ensuremath{-}U/2),$ close to quarter and half filling the antiferromagnetic phase is the ground state. For intermediate band-filling there is a second-order phase transition to a ferromagnetic state. At quarter filling there is a transition from a metallic paramagnetic state to an insulating antiferromagnetic state as the on-site Coulomb interaction increases. The asymmetric case is treated in the mixed-valence regime ${(E}_{f}=0).$ At half filling the ground state is antiferromagnetic while at or close to quarter filling it is paramagnetic. Below half filling the ground state becomes ferromagnetic, suggesting that doping destroys rapidly the antiferromagnetic $f\ensuremath{-}f$ spin correlations. For small values of U we find a paramagnetic state at all band fillings. Results for the average occupation number of the f level compare well with density matrix renormalization group calculations.

Phase diagram of the half-filled Hubbard chain with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

S. Daul, R. M. Noack

We investigate the ground-state phase diagram of the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping using the density-matrix renormalization-group technique as well as an unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation. We find commensurate and incommensurate disordered magnetic insulating phases and a spin-gapped metallic phase in addition to the one-dimensional Heisenberg phase. At large on-site Coulomb repulsion U, we make contact with the phase diagram of the frustrated Heisenberg chain, which has spin-gapped phases for sufficiently large frustration. For weak U, sufficiently large next-nearest-neighbor hopping ${t}_{2}$ leads to a band structure with four Fermi points rather than two, producing a spin-gapped metallic phase. As U is increased in this regime, the system undergoes a Mott-Hubbard transition to a frustrated antiferromagnetic insulator.

Stripes and spin-density waves in the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model: Ground state phase diagram

Hao Xu, Hao Shi, Ettore Vitali +2 more

We determine the spin and charge orders in the ground state of the doped two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model in its simplest form, namely with only nearest-neighbor hopping and on-site repulsion. At half-filling, the ground state is known to be an antiferromagnetic Mott insulator. Doping Mott insulators is believed to be relevant to the superconductivity observed in cuprates. A variety of candidates have been proposed for the ground state of the doped 2D Hubbard model. A recent work employing a combination of several state-of-the-art numerical many-body methods established the stripe order as the ground state near $1/8$ doping at strong interactions. In this paper, we apply one of these methods, the cutting-edge constrained-path auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) method with self-consistently optimized gauge constraints, to systematically study the model as a function of doping and interaction strength. With careful finite size scaling based on large-scale computations, we map out the ground state phase diagram in terms of its spin and charge order. We find that modulated antiferromagnetic order persists from near half-filling to about $1/5$ doping. At lower interaction strengths or larger doping, these ordered states are best described as spin-density waves, with essentially delocalized holes and modest oscillations in charge correlations. When the charge correlations are stronger (large interaction or small doping), they are best described as stripe states, with the holes more localized near the node in the antiferromagnetic spin order. In both cases, we find that the wavelength in the charge correlations is consistent with so-called filled stripes.

Stripe order in the doped Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice

Yang Xu, Hao Zheng, Mingpu Qin

We study the ground state properties of the doped Hubbard model with strong interactions on the honeycomb lattice by the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. At half-filling, due to the absence of minus sign problem, it is now well established by large-scale quantum Monte Carlo calculations that a Dirac semimetal to antiferromagnetic Mott insulator transition occurs with the increase of the interaction strength $U$ for the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice. However, an understanding of the fate of the antiferromagnetic Mott insulator when holes are doped into the system is still lacking. In this work, by calculating the local spin and charge density for width-4 cylinders with DMRG, we discover a half-filled stripe order in the doped Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice. We also perform complementary large-scale mean-field calculations with renormalized interaction strength. We observe half-filled stripe order and find stripe states with filling close to one half are nearly degenerate in energy.

Local spin clustering and phase separation in the Hubbard model

Antonis N. Andriotis, Eleftherios N. Economou, C. M. Soukoulis

The authors use an unrestricted self-consistent mean-field approach to the one-dimensional periodic Hubbard model to study its ground-state phase diagram. Their approach allows one to incorporate spin and electron correlations as well as spin and charge fluctuations. The authors find that a homogeneous antiferromagnetic state exists only at half-filling, where the state is also insulating. Off half-filling, it was found that the ground state of the Hubbard model consists of clusters with different magnetic and charge properties. For certain values of the parameters of the system the cluster formation develops to a full phase separation. The effects of the intersite repulsive or attractive interaction on the ground-state properties were also examined. Implications of the authors results for the existence of a superconducting ground state as well as comparison with other studies will be briefly discussed.
