We use an exact holon and spinon Landau-liquid functional, which describes the holon-spinon interactions at all scattering orders, to study correlation functions of integrable multicomponent many-particle problems showing both linear and nonlinear energy bands. Motivated by recent photoemission experiments, we consider specific cases when the dominant nonlinear band terms are quadratic and apply our results to the evaluation of the half-filling 1D Hubbard model one-particle spectral functions beyond conformal field theory.
Characteristic properties of the dressed particles, holon and spinon, in the one dimensional correlated electron systems are investigated by means of the exact solution of the Hubbard model. In particular, the nature of holon is clarified in detail in the system close to the Mott insulating phase. The dressed particles in magnetic fields are also formulated and discussed in terms of the bulk quantities. The exact results obtained for the correlation functions are mentioned in connection with the fractional charge of the dressed particles.
By utilizing the twisted boundary conditions in the exact diagonalization method, we investigate the single-particle spectral function of the extended Peierls-Hubbard model at both half-filling and quarter-filling. In one-dimensional (1D) interacting systems, the spin-charge separation can typically be identified in the single-particle spectral function by observing the distinct spinon and holon bands. At half-filling, starting from the pure 1D Hubbard model with the on-site interaction
U=10, we observe that the band structure indicative of the spin-charge separation gradually transitions to four individual bands as the Peierls instability $\ensuremath{\delta}$ increases. At
U=10 and $\ensuremath{\delta}=0.2$ where the spin-charge separation is still observable, increasing the nearest-neighbor interaction
V can drive the system to a charge-density-wave state when $V\ensuremath{\gtrsim}U/2$. At quarter-filling, on the other hand, the ground state of Peierls-Hubbard model manifests an antiferromagnetic Mott insulator in units of dimers. Increasing
U results in only a very small gap in the single-particle spectrum because even for $U=+\ensuremath{\infty}$, with the model transforming into a noninteracting half-filled dimerized tight-binding model, its gap determined by the Peierls instability $\ensuremath{\delta}$ remains small. Conversely, increasing
V can effectively open the single-particle gap and make the spinon and holon bands more prominent.
The single-particle spectral properties near the Mott transition in the one-dimensional Hubbard model are investigated by using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method and the Bethe ansatz. The pseudogap, hole-pocket behavior, spectral-weight transfer, and upper Hubbard band are explained in terms of spinons, holons, antiholons, and doublons. The Mott transition is characterized by the emergence of a gapless mode whose dispersion relation extends up to the order of hopping t (spin exchange J) in the weak (strong) interaction regime caused by infinitesimal doping.

V can drive the system to a charge-density-wave (CDW) state when
V≳U/2, without the obeservation of spinon and holon bands. At quarter-filling, on the other hand, the ground state of Peierls-Hubbard model manifests an antiferromagnetic Mott insulator in units of dimers. Increasing

In the first paper of this series it was found that the
η-spin 1/2 holons, spin 1/2 spinons, and
c pseudoparticles whose occupancy configurations describe the energy eigenstates of the one-dimensional Hubbard model emerge from the electron - rotated-electron unitary transformation. In this second paper we discuss and clarify how the relation of the electrons to the above objects can be used in a program for evaluation of finite-energy few-electron spectral functions. As a first step, here we characterize the dominant holon and spinon microscopic physical processes that originate more than 99% of the few-electron spectral weight. These dominant processes are related to exact selection rules for the values of the number of holons and spinons generated or annihilated by application onto a ground state of rotated-electron operators. We also generalize the concepts of a lower Hubbard band and upper Hubbard bands to all values of on-site Coulombian repulsion.
