Charge- and spin-gap formation in exactly solvable Hubbard chains with long-range hopping

Abstract

We discuss the transition from a metal to charge- or spin-insulating phases characterized by the opening of a gap in the charge- or spin-excitation spectra, respectively. These transitions are addressed within the context of two exactly solvable Hubbard and t-J chains with long-range, 1/r hopping. We discuss the specific heat, compressibility, and magnetic susceptibility of these models as a function of temperature, the band filling, and the interaction strength. We then use conformal-field-theory techniques to extract ground-state correlation functions. Finally, by employing the g-ology analysis we show that the charge-insulator transition is accompanied by an infinite discontinuity in the Drude weight of the electrical conductivity. While the magnetic properties of these models reflect the genuine features of strongly correlated electron systems, the charge-transport properties, especially near the Mott-Hubbard transition, display a nongeneric behavior.

Finite-temperature properties of the Hubbard chain with bond-charge interaction

Fabrizio Dolcini, Arianna Montorsi

We investigate the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model with an additional bond-charge interaction, recently considered in the description of compounds that exhibit strong 1D features above the temperature of ordered phases. The partition function of the model is exactly calculated for a value of the bond-charge coupling; the behavior of the specific heat and spin susceptibility as a function of temperature is derived at arbitrary filling, and particularly discussed across the occurring metal-insulator transition. The results show that the bond-charge terms weaken the spin excitations of the system.

Influence of spin and charge fluctuations on spectra of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

A. Sherman

The influence of spin and charge fluctuations on spectra of the two-dimensional fermionic Hubbard model is considered using the strong coupling diagram technique. Infinite sequences of diagrams containing ladder inserts, which describe the interaction of electrons with these fluctuations, are summed, and obtained equations are self-consistently solved for the ranges of Hubbard repulsions [Formula: see text], temperatures [Formula: see text] and electron concentrations [Formula: see text] with t the intersite hopping constant. For all considered U the system exhibits a transition to the long-range antiferromagnetic order at [Formula: see text]. At the same time no indication of charge ordering is observed. Obtained solutions agree satisfactorily with results of other approaches and obey moments sum rules. In the considered region of the U-T plane, the curve separating metallic solutions passes from [Formula: see text] at the highest temperatures to U = 2t at [Formula: see text] for half-filling. If only short-range fluctuations are allowed for the remaining part of this region is occupied by insulating solutions. Taking into account long-range fluctuations leads to strengthening of maxima tails, which transform a part of insulating solutions into bad-metal states. For low T, obtained results allow us to trace the gradual transition from the regime of strong correlations with the pronounced four-band structure and well-defined Mott gap for [Formula: see text] to the Slater regime of weak correlations with the spectral intensity having a dip along the boundary of the magnetic Brillouin zone due to an antiferromagnetic ordering for [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] doping leads to the occurrence of a pseudogap near the Fermi level, which is a consequence of the splitting out of a narrow band from a Hubbard subband. Obtained spectra feature waterfalls and Fermi arcs, which are similar to those observed in hole-doped cuprates.

Exactly Solvable Model of Correlated Lattice Electrons in Any Dimensions

Yasuhiro Hatsugai, Mahito Kohmoto

We present an exactly solvable Hamiltonian which consists of nearest neighbor hopping and long-range interaction. The ground state and the thermodynamic quantities are analytically obtained in any dimensions. In a repulsive case, the Luttinger's theorem breaks down and the hypothesis of the adiabatic continuation no longer holds. At half filling, we show the existence of a metal-insulator transition as a function of the strength of the interaction. The zero energy excitation disappears at the critical value of the interaction when we increase the interaction. In this case, the system is an insulator. The charge compressibility behaves as κ≈|1-ρ| 1-2/ d near half filling in d dimensions where ρ is the density of electrons. At other fillings, there is always a zero energy excitation and the system is metallic. When the interaction is attractive, the ground state is composed of pairs of electrons with opposite spins. The low energy excitations, however, is not a particle-hole type of a non-interacting case but a pairwise excitation across the Fermi surface.

Effects of Strong Correlation and Randomness in the Vicinity of the Mott Transition in the Quasi-One-Dimensional Hubbard Model

Satoshi Fujimoto

We study the strong correlation effects in the vicinity of the Mott metal-insulator transition using coupled clean or disordered Hubbard chains with a infinitely large coordinate number $D_{\perp}\to\infty$ in the direction perpendicular to the chains and with a long-range transverse hopping. Strong electron correlation effects are treated partially non-perturbatively with the use of the exact results for the 1D Hubbard model. In the case of clean systems, the thermodynamic and transport quantities which characterize the Mott transition from the Fermi liquid state, such as the specific heat coefficient, the Drude weight, and the compressibility, are obtained as functions of hole-doping $δ=1-n$ ($n$, electron density) by the systematic expansion in terms of the inverse of the transverse hopping range $l_{\perp}$. We find that the $δ$-dependence of these quantities shows non-universal behaviors with exponents depending on the strength of electron-electron interaction. In the presence of disorder, it is shown that the frequency-dependence of the dynamical conductivity obeys the Mott's law, implying the possibility of {\it Mott glass state} for $δ\to 0$, provided that there exists a finite range interaction.

Metal-insulator transition in an one-dimensional two-band Hubbard-like model

P. Schlottmann

We consider a one-dimensional two-band model of electrons on a lattice with equal nearest-neighbour hopping, an interband splitting Delta and a Hubbard-like repulsion U. The model is defined via the SU(4) generalization of Lieb and Wu's Bethe ansatz solution of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. At T=0 the model has a Mott metal-insulator transition at a critical value U c ( Delta ) for a band filling of exactly one electron per site. U c decreases with Delta , being zero if the excited-electron band is empty, and U c =2.981 when the bands are degenerate. We discuss the ground-state properties, the spectrum of elemental excitations, the specific heat and the magnetic susceptibility, in both the metallic and insulating phases, as a function of the crystal-field splitting for exactly one electron per site. There are four branches of elemental excitations: (i) charge excitations, (ii) crystalline-field excitations and (iii) two branches of spin waves. The Fermi velocity is finite in the metallic phase, diverges as the metal-insulator transition is approached from the metallic side and vanishes for the insulator. Each band contributes to the susceptibility with a term that is inversely proportional to the spin-wave velocity for that band. The low-temperature specific heat is proportional to T and to the sum of the inverses of the velocities of the four branches.

Phase transitions and exact ground-state properties of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field

Chia‐Wei Yang, ARMEN N. KOCHARIAN, Y. L. Chiang

The exact phase diagrams of the one-dimensional Hubbard model, both attractive and repulsive, in the presence of an arbitrary magnetic field h for various electron concentrations n and on-site interaction strengths U <0 or U >0 are calculated and investigated. The exact ground-state properties, namely, the ground-state energy, the average spin (magnetization), the concentration of the doubly occupied sites, the kinetic energy, the chemical potential, the spin (magnetic) susceptibility and the charge compressibility, are calculated and examined over a wide range of interaction strengths U for various h and n . It is found that the spin susceptibility at half-filling is non-analytic and changes discontinuously as U →0. The exact theory shows the absence of a charge energy gap in the U ⩽0 region for all n and provides, for the chemical potential, the rigorous upper and lower bounds for half-filled and empty bands respectively. The analytical results derived for the weak-coupling limit and asymptotic expansions for strong coupling are in full agreement with the numerical calculations.
