Abstract

We consider a one-dimensional lattice model with the nearest-neighbour interaction and the next-nearest-neighbour interaction with filling factor 1/2 at zero temperature. The particles are assumed to be spinless fermions or hard-core bosons. Using very simple assumptions we are able to predict the basic structure of the insulator - metal phase diagram for this model. Computations of the flux sensitivity support the main features of the proposed diagram and show that the system maintains metallic properties at arbitrarily large values of and along the line , where J is the hopping amplitude, and . We think that close to this line the system is a `weak' metal in the sense that the flux sensitivity decreases with the size of the system not exponentially but as with .

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.

Supersolid in a one-dimensional model of hard-core bosons

Tapan Mishra, Ramesh V. Pai, Subroto Mukerjee

We study a system of hard-core boson on a one-dimensional lattice with frustrated next-nearest-neighbor hopping and nearest-neighbor interaction. At half filling, for equal magnitude of nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor hopping, the ground state of this system exhibits a first-order phase transition from a bond-ordered solid to a charge-density-wave solid as a function of the nearest-neighbor interaction. Moving away from half filling we investigate the system at incommensurate densities, where we find a supersolid phase which has concurrent off-diagonal long-range order and density-wave order which is unusual in a system of hard-core bosons in one dimension. Using the finite-size density-matrix renormalization group method, we obtain the complete phase diagram for this model.

Strongly interacting particles on an anisotropic kagome lattice

Chisa Hotta, Frank Pollmann

We study a model of strongly interacting spinless fermions and hard-core bosons on an anisotropic kagome lattice near 2/3-filling. Our main focus lies on the strongly anisotropic case in which the nearest–neighbor repulsions V and V ' are large compared to the hopping amplitudes | t | and | t '|. When t = t ' = 0, the system has a charge ordered insulating ground state where the charges align in striped configurations. Doping one electron or hole into the ground state yields an anisotropic metal at V ' > V , where the particle fractionalizes along the V '-bonds while propagates along the V -bonds in a one–body like manner. The sixth order ring exchange processes around the hexagonal unit of the lattice play a crucial role in forming a bound state of fractional charges.

Nature of the metal-insulator transition in the half--filled t-t' Hubbard chain

G. I. Japaridze, R. M. Noack, D. Baeriswyl

We study the quantum phase transition from an insulator to a metal realized at t'=t'_c > 0.5t in the ground state of the half-filled Hubbard chain with both nearest-neighbor (t) and next-nearest-neighbor (t') hopping. The study is carried out using the bosonization approach and density matrix renormalization group calculations. An effective low-energy Hamiltonian that describes the insulator-metal transition is derived. We find that the gross features of the phase diagram are well-described by the standard theory of commensurate-incommensurate transitions in a wide range of parameters. We also obtain an analytical expression for the insulator-metal transition line t'_c(U,t). We argue that close to the insulator-metal transition line, a crossover to a regime corresponding to an infinite-order transition takes place.We present results of density-matrix-renormalization-group calculations of spin and charge distribution in various sectors of the phase diagram. The numerical results support the picture derived from the effective theory and give evidence for the complete separation of the transitions involving spin and charge degrees of freedom.

Magnetic phase diagram of the Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbour hopping

Robert Peters, Thomas Pruschke

We calculate the magnetic phase diagram of the Hubbard model for a Bethe lattice with nearest-neighbour (NN) hopping t 1 and next-nearest-neighbour (NNN) hopping t 2 in the limit of infinite coordination. We use the amplitude t 2 / t 1 of the NNN hopping to tune the density of states (DOS) of the non-interacting system from a situation with particle–hole symmetry to an asymmetric one with van-Hove singularities at the lower ( t 2 / t 1 >0) respectively upper ( t 2 / t 1 <0) band edge for large enough | t 2 / t 1 |. For this strongly asymmetric situation, we find rather extended parameter regions with ferromagnetic states and regions with antiferromagnetic states.

Repulsion-driven metallic phase in the ground state of the half-filled t−t′ ionic Hubbard chain

G. L. Rossini, G. I. Japaridze

An unusual metallic phase is argued to develop in the one-dimensional ionic Hubbard model, at half-filling and zero magnetization, at intermediate electron-electron repulsion $U$ when second-neighbors hopping is allowed and tuned close to a topological Lifshitz transition (connected with a change of the Fermi surface in the noninteracting system). The metallic state lies between a band insulator phase at low repulsion and a correlated (Mott-like) insulator phase at high repulsion. In approaching the latter, the model supports short-range antiferromagnetic order and spontaneous dimerization of both bond charge and nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic correlations. A combination of mean-field and effective-field theory (bosonization) provides an analytical understanding of the physical processes underlying the argued phase transitions. The ground and low-energy excited states of finite-length chains are explored by density-matrix renormalization-group (DMRG) calculations, providing numerical evidence for the intermediate gapless phase. Such finite systems are attainable by cold atoms in optical lattices for a wide range of the parameter $U$.
