A classical wave optics realization of the two-site Hubbard model, describing the dynamics of interacting fermions in a double-well potential, is proposed based on light transport in evanescently-coupled optical waveguides.
Within the 1D Hubbard model linear closed chains with various numbers of sites are considered in Self Consistent Random Phase Approximation (SCRPA). Excellent results with a minimal numerical effort are obtained for 2+4n sites cases, confirming earlier results with this theory for other models. However, the 4n sites cases need further considerations. SCRPA solves the two sites problem exactly. It therefore contains the two electrons and high density Fermi gas limits correctly.
We derive an effective spin Hamiltonian for the one-dimensional half-filled asymmetric ionic Hubbard model with alternating on-site interaction in the limit of strong repulsion. It is shown that the effective Hamiltonian is that of a spin $S=1/2$ anisotropic $XXZ$ Heisenberg chain with alternating next-nearest-neighbor and three-spin couplings in the presence of a uniform and a staggered magnetic field.

We focus our quantitative analysis on the stability of the insulator state in the Hubbard model at a half-filling. Taking into account large-scale fluctuations (with a long relaxation time) of the on-site Coulomb repulsion, we consider the possibility of realizing a stabile state which is characterized by pairing for electrons. The pairing mechanism is as follows: due to fluctuations of on-site repulsion of electrons, holes, as excited states, are formed electron pairs. The bare values of on-site Coulomb repulsion and its fluctuations, for which the states with electron pairing are stable, are…
We compute the frequency dependent conductivity of the two dimensional square lattice Hubbard model at zero temperature as a function of density to second order in the interaction strength, and compare the results to the predictions of single-site dynamical mean field theory computed at the same order. We find that despite the neglect of vertex corrections, the single site dynamical mean field approximation produces semiquantitatively accurate results for most carrier concentrations, but fails qualitatively for the nearly empty or nearly filled band cases where the theory exhibits an emergent …
Here the line shape of the up- and down-spin one-particle spectral functions at and in the (k,energy)-plane's vicinity of their cusp singularities is studied for the Mott-Hubbard insulator described by the 1D Hubbard model with one fermion per site at zero and finite magnetic fields. At zero field they can be accessed in terms of electrons by photoemission experiments. At finite field, such functions and corresponding interplay of correlations and magnetic-field effects refer to an involved non-perturbative many-particle problem that is poorly understood. The Mott-Hubbard gap that separates th…
Low-energy excitations of the one-dimensional half-filled SU(4) Hubbard model with an attractive on-site interaction: Density-matrix renormalization-group calculations and perturbation theory
We study the lattice dynamics of antiferromagnetic transition-metal oxides by using self-consistent Hubbard functionals. We calculate the ground states of the oxides with the on-site and intersite Hubbard interactions determined self-consistently within the framework of density functional theory. The on-site and intersite Hubbard terms fix the errors associated with the electron self-interaction in the local and semilocal functionals. Inclusion of the intersite Hubbard terms in addition to the on-site Hubbard terms produces accurate phonon dispersion of the transition-metal oxides. Calculated …
The two-orbital Hubbard model on a square lattice at quarter filling (electron number per site $n=1$) is investigated by the variational Monte Carlo method. For the variational wave function, we include short-range doublon-holon binding factors. We find that the energy of this wave function is lower than that of the density-density Jastrow wave function partially including long-range correlations used in a previous study. We introduce frustration to the model by the next-nearest-neighbor hopping $t'$ in addition to the nearest-neighbor hopping $t$. For $t'=0$, a ferromagnetic state with stagge…
A single transport relaxation rate governs the decay of both, longitudinal and Hall currents in Landau Fermi Liquids (LFL). Breakdown of this fundamental feature, first observed in cuprates and subsequently in other three-dimensional correlated systems close to (partial or complete) Mott metal-insulator transitions, played a pivotal role in emergence of a non-Landau Fermi liquid paradigm in higher dimensions $D(>1)$. Motivated hereby, we explore the emergence of this "two relaxation rates" scenario in the Hubbard-Falicov-Kimball model (HFKM) using the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). Specia…
We investigate the competition between charge-density-wave (CDW) states and a Coulomb interaction-driven topological Mott insulator (TMI) in the honeycomb extended Hubbard model. For the spinful model with on-site ($U$) and next-nearest-neighbor ($V_2$) Coulomb interactions at half filling, we find two peculiar six-sublattice charge-density-wave insulating states by using variational Monte Carlo simulations as well as the Hartree-Fock approximation. We observe that conventional ordered states always win with respect to the TMI. The ground state is given in the large-$V_2$ region by a CDW chara…

We present a version of the Hubbard model with a gapless nearly-flat lowest band which exhibits ferromagnetism in two or more dimensions. The model is defined on a lattice obtained by placing a site on each edge of the hypercubic lattice, and electron hopping is assumed to be only between nearest and next nearest neighbor sites. The lattice, where all the sites are identical, is simple, and the corresponding single-electron band structure, where two cosine-type bands touch without an energy gap, is also simple. We prove that the ground state of the model is unique and ferromagnetic at half-fil…
Quantum Critical Phenomena, Entanglement Entropy and Hubbard Model in 1d with the Boundary Site with a Negative Chemical Potential -p and the Hubbard Coupling U Positive
We analyze the dynamical nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor spin correlations in the 4-site and 8-site dynamical cluster approximation to the two-dimensional Hubbard model. Focusing on the robustness of these correlations at long imaginary times, we reveal enhanced ferromagnetic correlations on the lattice diagonal, consistent with the emergence of composite spin-1 moments at a temperature scale that essentially coincides with the pseudo-gap temperature $T^*$. We discuss these results in the context of the spin-freezing theory of unconventional superconductivity.
We consider strongly correlated limit of variants of the Hubbard model (HM) in which on parts of the system it is energetically favourable to project out doublons from the low energy Hilbert space while on other sites of the system it is favourable to project out holes while still allowing for doublons. As an effect the low energy Hilbert space itself varies with sites of the system. Though the formalism is well developed for the case of doublon projection in the literature, case of hole projection has not been explored in detail so far. We derive basic framework by defining creation and annih…
We introduce Gutzwiller conjugate gradient minimization (GCGM) theory, an ab initio quantum many-body theory for computing the ground-state properties of infinite systems. GCGM uses the Gutzwiller wave function but does not use the commonly adopted Gutzwiller approximation (GA), which is a major source of inaccuracy. Instead, the theory uses an approximation that is based on the occupation probability of the on-site configurations, rather than approximations that decouple the site-site correlations as used in the GA. We test the theory in the one-dimensional and two-dimensional Hubbard models …
We present a mathematical analysis of the spin-constrained Hartree-Fock solutions (CHF) of the 2-site Hubbard model. The analysis sheds light on the spin symmetry breaking process around the Coulson-Fischer point. CHF states are useful as input states for the Generator Coordinate Method (GCM) in which CHF states can be used as a basis for multiconfigurational calculations in the Hill-Wheeler equations. The spin degree of freedom provides the generator coordinate in the GCM related to static electron correlation.
We use the $C_{4v}$ symmetry group of the 4-site Hubbard model to construct a ground state variational wave function of two- and four interacting electrons. In the limit $U\rightarrow 0$, ground state energies of the two- and four interacting electrons system is of the order $-4t$. The variational wave function of the four interacting electrons obtained using the $B_1$ irreducible representation is valid for on-site Coulomb repulsion, while the one obtained using the $A_1$ representation is valid for negative values of the Coulomb interaction. The system exhibits antiferromagnetic correlations…
We study the phase diagram of the interacting spin-$1/2$ Haldane model with chiral phase $ϕ= π/2$ at half-filling. Both on-site and long-range Coulomb repulsive interactions (Haldane-Hubbard-Coulomb model) are considered. The problem with on-site interaction $U$ alone was addressed in the past by a variety of approximate and finite size methods that produced results in disagreement with each other both quantitatively and qualitatively. Here we employ the Diagrammatic Monte Carlo technique to accurately locate phase transition points to the topologically nontrivial phases in the $(Δ, U)$-plane,…
