Hartree Fock and RPA studies of the Hubbard model

Abstract

The applicability of the Hartree-Fock and random phase approximations to models of strongly correlated electrons is discussed. The 2D Hubbard model is analyzed. An antiferromagnetic phase (at half filling) and Fermi liquid behavior (at low electron densities) are found. In addition, the system shows an unconventional regime near half filling. It is characterized by the formation of spin and charge textures. Local magnetic moments and spin waves are also present, and the quasiparticle pole at the Fermi energy vanishes. The charge excitation spectrum is gapless. The overall features resemble those of the 1D Luttinger liquid.

Excitations and response functions of the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model: A random-phase-approximation anaylsis

F. Guinea, Enrique Louis, José Antonio Vergés

We calculate the excitation spectrum and the response functions of the textures induced by doping in the half-filled Hubbard model. Localized states appear within the antiferromagnetic gap. The spin-wave spectrum is distorted, and shifted towards lower energies; its total strength is reduced. The antiferromagnetic peak at (\ensuremath{\pi},\ensuremath{\pi}) is broadened and moves to higher energies. Charge excitations appear at low energies and mix with the spin waves. Their polarization induces screened interactions that can overcome the initial, repulsive, ones. The general features of the results cannot be described in conventional-Fermi-liquid or, alternatively, insulator terms.

Phase diagram of the two-dimensional disordered Hubbard model in the Hartree-Fock approximation

Chandan Dasgupta, J. W. Halleý

Ground-state properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model with point-defect disorder are investigated numerically in the Hartree-Fock approximation. The phase diagram in the p(point defect concentration)--\ensuremath{\delta}(deviation from half filling) plane exhibits antiferromagnetic, spin-density-wave, paramagnetic, and spin-glass-like phases. The disorder stabilizes the antiferromagnetic phase relative to the spin-density-wave phase. The presence of U strongly enhances the localization in the antiferromagnetic phase. The spin-density-wave and spin-glass-like phases are weakly localized.

Anomalous paramagnetic phase of the Hubbard model

Takuya Okabe

A strong-coupling regime of the Hubbard model around half filling is investigated in the Hartree-Fock random-phase approximation. At half filling, besides a normal solution that gives rise to antiferromagnetic instability at ${T=T}_{\mathrm{N}}^{\mathrm{RPA}}\ensuremath{\sim}U,$ we find a solution representing the paramagnetic phase of the Mott insulator, for which we obtain the N\'eel temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{N}}\ensuremath{\sim}J$ in three-dimensional lattices. The solution is interpreted as the ferromagnetic band insulator depolarized by spin wave, the bound state of a particle-hole pair. Similarly, an anomalous metallic phase is derived from the Nagaoka ferromagnetic state. We evaluate ${T}_{\mathrm{N}}$ as a function of doping concentration x to find that it vanishes at $x\ensuremath{\simeq}0.05$ for $U/6t=4$ in a simple cubic lattice.

Antiferromagnetic correlations in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Bumsoo Kyung

We study the temperature and doping dependence of the two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model in the intermediate coupling regime $(U=4).$ As temperature is decreased for a half-filled band, 2D critical spin fluctuations give rise to a strong local maximum in $|\mathrm{Im}\ensuremath{\Sigma}({k}_{F},\ensuremath{\omega})|$ at $\ensuremath{\omega}=0,$ leading to a split peak in the spectral function. These strong fluctuations dominating near half filling are completely destroyed by 12% doping concentration. Below this concentration the imaginary part of the self-energy vanishes nearly quadratically in frequency at the Fermi energy, a Fermi-liquid-like feature. With varying the temperature at this concentration, we present numerical evidence for the band Kondo effect in the doped 2D Hubbard model by showing at low temperatures a growing peak in the density of states, nearly quadratically vanishing (in frequency) scattering rates at the Fermi energy and a linearly vanishing (in temperature) effective magnetic moment.

Numerical evidence of Luttinger- and Fermi-liquid behavior in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Sandro Sorella

The two-dimensional Hubbard model with a single spin-up electron interacting with a finite density of spin-down electrons is studied by use of the quantum Monte Carlo technique, the standard second-order perturbation theory and a very good variational wave function introduced recently by Edwards. We also present a new conjugate gradient scheme for the evaluation of this variational state. We performed simulations up to 242 sites at U/t=4 reaching the zero-temperature properties with no ``fermion-sign problem'' and found a surprisingly good accuracy of the Edwards state at low density or low doping. The conjugate gradient method was then applied to the system up to 3698 sites and infinite U. Fermi-liquid theory seems to remain stable in two dimensions for all cases studied with the exception of the half-filling case where a Luttinger-like behavior survives in the Hubbard model, yielding a vanishing quasiparticle weight in the thermodynamic limit.

Extended Hubbard model: Charge ordering and Wigner-Mott transition

A. Amaricci, Alberto Camjayi, Kristjan Haule +3 more

Strong correlations effects, which are often associated to the approach to a Mott insulating state, in some cases may be observed even far from half filling. This typically happens whenever the intersite Coulomb repulsion induces a tendency toward charge ordering, an effect that confines the electrons, and in turn favors local moment formation, i.e., Mott localization. A distinct intermediate regime then emerges as a precursor of such a Wigner-Mott transition, which is characterized by both charge and spin correlations, displaying large mass enhancements and strong renormalizations of other Fermi-liquid parameters. Here we present a careful study of a quarter-filled extended Hubbard model---a simple example where such physics can be studied in detail, and discuss its relevance for the understanding of the phenomenology of low-density two-dimensional electron gases.
