We compute the dynamical charge susceptibility in the two-dimensional Hubbard model within the dynamical cluster approximation. In order to understand the connection between charge susceptibility and pseudogap, we investigate the momentum, doping, and temperature dependence. We find that as a function of frequency, the dynamical charge susceptibility is well represented by a single peak at a characteristic frequency. It shows little momentum or temperature dependence, while the doping dependence is more evident, and no clear signature of the pseudogap is observed. Data for the doping evolution of the static susceptibility and for fluctuation diagnostics are presented. Our susceptibilities should be directly measurable in future Momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy experiments.
The magnetic susceptibility and the low-temperature specific heat of the 1-dimensional Hubbard model under the integrable open-boundary conditions are discussed through the Bethe ansatz with the string hypothesis. The contributions of the boundary fields to both the susceptibility and the specific heat are obtained, and their exact expressions are analytically derived.
Local spin fluctuations provide the glue for orbital-singlet spin-triplet pairing in the doped Mott insulating regime of multi-orbital Hubbard models. At large Hubbard repulsion $U$, the pairing susceptibility is nevertheless very low, because the pairing interaction cannot overcome the suppression of charge fluctuations. Using nonequilibrium dynamical mean field simulations of the two-orbital Hubbard model, we show that out of equilibrium the pairing susceptibility in this large-$U$ regime can be strongly enhanced by creating a photo-induced population of the relevant charge states, and that …
The effect of disorder on a class of transition metal oxides described by a single orbital Hubbard model at half filling is investigated. The phases are characterized by the nature of the electronic and spin excitations. The frequency and temperature-dependent conductivity and spin susceptibility as functions of disorder are calculated. The interplay of disorder and electron-electron interaction produces unusual behavior in this system. For example, the dc conductivity, which is vanishingly small at low disorder in the Mott phase and at high disorder in the localized phase, gets surprisingly e…
We treat the two-particle Green's function in the Hubbard model using the recently developed tau-CPA, a hybrid treatment that applies the coherent-potential approximation (CPA) up to a time tau related to the inverse of the band width, after which the system is averaged using the virtual-crystal approximation (VCA). This model, with suitable approximations, does predict magnetism for a modified Stoner criterion. The evaluation of the two-particle propagator in the tau-CPA requires the solution of the pure CPA, within whose formalism the vertex correction and the weighted Green's functions are …
The magnetic susceptibility of the two-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor hopping is investigated using the diagram technique developed for the case of strong correlations. In this technique a power series in the hopping constant is used. At half-filling the calculated zero-frequency susceptibility and the square of the site spin reproduce adequately results of Monte Carlo simulations. Also in agreement with numerical simulations no evidence of ferromagnetic correlations was found in the considered range of electron concentrations $0.8\alt\bar{n}\alt 1.2$ for the repulsi…
We investigated the fidelity susceptibility in the one-dimension (1D) Hubbard model and the extended Hubbard model at half-filling via the density matrix renormalization group. From the numerical results, we argue that in the 1D Hubbard model, the fidelity susceptibility shows a divergence at two points which is infinitesimally close to the critical point while it is always extensive exactly at the critical point. For the extended Hubbard model, we found that for a properly chosen driving parameter, the fidelity susceptibility is able to reveal the quantum phase transitions between the PS (pha…
In this paper, we present details of the dual fermion (DF) method to study the non-local correction to single site DMFT. The DMFT two-particle Green's function is calculated using continuous time quantum monte carlo (CT-QMC) method. The momentum dependence of the vertex function is analyzed and its renormalization based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation is performed in particle-hole channel. We found a magnetic instability in both the dual and the lattice fermions. The lattice fermion susceptibility is calculated at finite temperature in this method and also in another recently proposed method, n…
We compute dynamic spin susceptibilities in the two-dimensional Hubbard model using the method of Dual Fermions and provide comparison to lattice Monte Carlo and cluster dynamical mean field theory. We examine the energy dispersion identified by peaks in ${\rm Im}χ(ω,q)$ which define spin modes and compare the exchange scale and magnon dispersion to neutron experiments on the parent La$_2$CuO$_4$ cuprate. We present the evolution of the spin excitations as a function of Hubbard interaction strengths and doping and explore the particle-hole asymmetry of the spin excitations. We also study the c…
Based on the non-skeleton diagrammatic expansion satisfying the compressibility and spin-susceptibility sum rules, we investigate static charge and spin responses in a two-dimensional extended Hubbard model with the nearest-neighbor Coulomb repulsion in the vicinity of its charge-ordering transition point. In this expansion, we can calculate approximate charge and spin response functions by systematic inclusion of vertex corrections, from which we obtain the uniform susceptibility equal to the so-called q-limit of the response function and the second-order transition point as a divergent point…
The two-layer Hubbard model is studied by using the composite operator method. Magnetic properties of the model in the normal state are analyzed by studying the uniform static spin magnetic susceptibility as a function of doping and temperature. The relevance of the model to describe the physical behavior of two-layered cuprate high-$T_{c}$ superconductors is discussed.
The charge susceptibility of the two-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model is investigated using the diagram technique developed for the case of strong correlations. In this technique, a power series in the hopping constant is used. It is shown that once the Fermi level crosses one of the Hubbard subbands a sharp peak appears in the momentum dependence of the static susceptibility. With further departure from half-filling the peak transforms to a ridge around the $Γ$ point. In the considered range $0\leq|1-\bar{n}|\alt 0.2$ of the electron filling $\bar{n}$ the static susceptibility is finite wh…
A generalized version of the fidelity susceptibility of single-band and multi-orbital Hubbard models is systematically studied using single-site dynamical mean-field theory in combination with a hybridization expansion continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo impurity solver. We find that the fidelity susceptibility is extremely sensitive to changes in the state of the system. It can be used as a numerically inexpensive tool to detect and characterize a broad range of phase transitions and crossovers in Hubbard models, including (orbital-selective) Mott metal-insulator transitions, high-spin to low…
A dynamic cluster quantum Monte Carlo algorithm is used to study a spin susceptibility representation of the pairing interaction for the two-dimensional Hubbard model with an on-site Coulomb interaction equal to the bandwidth for various doping levels. We find that the pairing interaction is well approximated by ${3/2}\Ub(T)^2χ(K-K')$ with an effective temperature and doping dependent coupling $\Ub(T)$ and the numerically calculated spin susceptibility $χ(K-K')$. We show that at low temperatures, $\Ub$ may be accurately determined from a corresponding spin susceptibility based calculation of t…
We examine the validity of the weak coupling spin-susceptibility "glue" approximation (SSGA) in a two-dimensional Hubbard model for cuprates. For comparison, we employ the well-established dynamical cluster approximation (DCA) with a quantum Monte Carlo algorithm as a cluster solver. We compare the leading eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions of the DCA and SSGA pairing matrices. For realistic model parameters, we find that the SSGA fails to capture the leading pairing symmetries seen in the DCA. Furthermore, when the SSGA is improved through the addition of a term with d-wave symmetry…
The magnetic susceptibility of the one-dimensional Hubbard model with open boundary conditions at arbitrary filling is obtained from field theory at low temperatures and small magnetic fields, including leading and next-leading orders. Logarithmic contributions to the bulk part are identified as well as algebraic-logarithmic divergences in the boundary contribution. As a manifestation of spin-charge separation, the result for the boundary part at low energies turns out to be independent of filling and interaction strength and identical to the result for the Heisenberg model. For the bulk part …
We investigate the interaction-induced superfluid-to-Mott insulator transition in the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model (BHM) for fillings $n=1$, $n=2$, and $n=3$ by studying the single-particle gap, the fidelity susceptibility, and the amplitude of Bloch oscillations via density-matrix renormalization-group methods. We apply a generic scaling procedure for the gap, which allows us to determine the critical points with very high accuracy. We also study how the fidelity susceptibility behaves across the phase transition. Furthermore, we show that in the BHM, and in a system of spinless fermion…
The thermodynamic properties: specific heat, entropy, spin susceptibility $χ_s$ and charge susceptibility $χ_c$ are studied as a function of temperature and doping within the two-dimensional Hubbard model with various $U/t=4 - 12$. Quantities are calculated using the finite-temperature Lanczos method with additional phase-averaging for a system of $4\times 4$ sites. Results show that the entropy at low $T$ reaches a maximum near half-filling at the electron density $n \sim 1\pm 0.15$ in the whole regime of studied $U/t$. The pseudogap in $χ_s(T)$ becomes clearly pronounced for $U/t \geq 8$ whi…
We draw some rigorous conclusions about the functional properties of the $μ-ρ$ relation in the Hubbard model based on symmetry considerations and unitary transformations. It is shown that the charge susceptibility reaches its local extreme at half-filling. Exact expressions are obtained in two limiting cases.
Using the Dynamical Cluster Approximation (DCA) we calculate the alternating circulating-current susceptibility and investigate the transition to the d-density wave (DDW) order in the two-dimensional Hubbard model. The 2 x 2 cluster used in the DCA calculation is the smallest that can capture d-wave order; therefore, due to the mean-field character of our calculation, we expect to overestimate d-wave transition temperatures. Despite this, we found no transition to the DDW state. In the pseudogap region the DDW susceptibility is enhanced, as predicted by the slave boson SU(2) theory, but it sti…
We present key issues of related phenomenons of the Ferroelectricity and the Charge Disproportionation in organic metals. In (TMTTF_2X the dielectric susceptibility demonstrates clear cases of the ferroelectric and anti-ferroelectric phase transitions. Both the susceptibility and the conductivity prove independence and occasional coexistence of "structurless" ferroelectric transitions and usual "anionic" ones. Their sequence gives access to physics of three types of solitons emerging upon cooling via several steps of symmetry breaking. The theory invokes a concept of the Combined Mott-Hubbard …
At temperatures above the superconducting transition temperature the pairfield susceptibility provides information on the nature of the pairfield fluctuations. Here we study the d-wave pairfield susceptibility of a 2D Hubbard model for dopings which have a pseudogap (PG) and for dopings which do not. One knows that in both cases there will be a region of Kosterlitz-Thouless fluctuations as the transition at $T_{KT}$ is approached. Above this region we find evidence for Emery-Kivelson phase fluctuations for dopings with a PG and Gaussian amplitude fluctuations for dopings without a PG.
In the framework of the diagrammatic method with self-consistent field, the maximum on the temperature dependence of the susceptibility of a weakly doped narrow-band Hubbard magnet below the Curie temperature $T_{\rm C}$ is predicted. By numerical calculations, it is proved that it appears at small hole concentrations $n_{h}$. In this case, the temperature dependence of the magnetization $M$($T$) has a typical Fermi-like shape with the point of inflection at a temperature $T_{\rm inf}$. The approximate solution of the system of equations for the mean spin and the chemical potential gives the S…
Magnetic and charge susceptibilities of the two-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model are investigated applying a strong coupling diagram technique in which the expansion in powers of the hopping constants is used. For small lattices and high temperatures results are in agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. With the departure from half-filling $x$ the low-frequency magnetic susceptibility becomes incommensurate and the incommensurability parameter grows with $x$. The incommensurability, its dependence on frequency and on $x$ resemble experimental results in lanthanum cuprates. Also for finite …
We propose an effective model called the "charge model", for the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard and extended Hubbard models. In this model, spin-charge separation, which has been justified from an infinite on-site repulsion ($U$) in the strict sense, is compatible with charge fluctuations. Our analyses based on the many-body Wannier functions succeeded in determining the optical conductivity spectra in large systems. The obtained spectra reproduce the spectra for the original models well even in the intermediate $U$ region of $U=5-10T$, with $T$ being the nearest-neighbor electron hopping…
We extend to charge and bond operators the transformation that maps the ionic Hubbard model at half filling onto an effective spin Hamiltonian. Using these operators we calculate the amplitude of the charge density wave in different dimensions. In one dimension, the charge-charge correlations at large distance d decay as 1/(d^3 ln^{3/2}d), in spite of the presence of a charge gap, as a consequence of remaining charge-spin coupling. Bond-bond correlations decay as (-1)^d 1/(d ln^{3/2}d) as in the usual Hubbard model.
The electric and magnetic polarizations as well as the electric and magnetic susceptibilities of the Hubbard pair-cluster embedded in the external fields were studied by the exact method. Based on the grand canonical ensemble for open system, the numerical calculations were performed for the electron concentration corresponding to the half-filling case. It has been found that the electric and magnetic properties are strictly interrelated, what constitutes a manifestation of a magnetoelectric effect, and the detailed explanation of such behaviour was given. In particular, near the ground state …
We study the ionic Hubbard model at temperature T=0 within the mean-field approximation, and show that the charge gap does not close completely at the ionic-band insulator to antiferromagnetic insulator transition, contrary to previous expectations. Furthermore, we find an intermediate phase for on-site repulsions $U>U_c$ for different lattices, and calculate the phase diagram for the ionic Hubbard model with alternating U, corresponding to a Cu-O lattice.

We investigate Knight shift and nuclear spin relaxation rate in a charge ordered state of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model with a quarter filled band by using RPA around the mean-field solution. It is shown that both quantities show splitting below the critical temperature of the charge order, as is experimentally observed. The relationship between the mount of the splitting in the both quantities and the charge disproportionation rate is discussed.
Using the strong coupling diagram technique for calculating the electron Green's function of the two-dimensional Hubbard model we have summed infinite sequences of ladder diagrams, which describe interactions of electrons with spin and charge fluctuations. For sufficiently low temperatures and doping a pronounced four-band structure is observed in spectral functions. Its appearance is related to the proximity of the transition to the long-range antiferromagnetic order.
We show that the charge transfer excitons in a Hubbard model system including nearest neighbor Coulomb interactions effectively attain some charge in doped systems and become visible in photoelectron and inverse photoelectron spectroscopies. This shows that the description of a doped system by an extended Hubbard model differs substantially from that of a simple Hubbard model. Longer range Coulomb interactions cause satellites in the one electron removal and addition spectra and the appearance of spectral weight if the gap of doped systems at energies corresponding to the excitons of the undop…
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…
In this paper we study the charge and spin currents transported by the elementary excitations of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. The corresponding current spectra are obtained by both analytic methods and numerical solution of the Bethe-ansatz equations. For the case of half-filling, we find that the spin-triplet excitations carry spin but no charge, while charge $η$-spin triplet excitations carry charge but no spin, and both spin-singlet and charge $η$-spin-singlet excitations carry neither spin nor charge currents.
We have studied the ground state of the one dimensional Hubbard superlattice structures with different unit cell sizes in the presence of electric field. Self consistent Hartree-Fock approximation calculation is done in the weak to intermediate interaction regime. Studying the charge gap at the Fermi level and the charge density structure factor, we get an idea how the charge modulation on the superlattice is governed by the competition between the electronic correlation and the external electric field.
We calculate the local correlation functions of charge and spin for the one-chain and two-chain Hubbard model using the density matrix renormalization group method and the recursion technique. Keeping only finite number of states we get good accuracy for the low energy excitations. We study the charge and spin gaps, bandwidths and weights of the spectra for various values of the on-site Coulomb interaction U and the electron filling. In the low energy part, the local correlation functions are different for the charge and spin. The bandwidths are proportional to t for the charge and J for the s…
The charge and spin sectors, which are intimately coupled to the fermionic one, of the $t$-$t'$ Hubbard model have been computed self-consistently within the two-pole approximation. The relevant unknown correlators appearing in the causal bosonic propagators have been computed by enforcing the constraints dictated by the hydrodynamics and the algebra of the composite operators coming into play. The proposed scheme of approximation extends previous calculations made for the fermionic sector of the $t$-$t'$ Hubbard model and the bosonic sector of the Hubbard model, which showed to be very effect…
The charge spin-separation, pseudogap formation and phase diagrams are studied in two and four site Hubbard clusters using analytical diagonalization and grand canonical ensemble method in a multidimensional parameter space of temperature, magnetic field, on-site Coulomb interaction ($U\ge 0$), and chemical potential. The numerically evaluated, exact expressions for charge and spin susceptibilities provide clear evidence for the existence of true gaps in the ground state and pseudogaps in a limited range of temperature. In particular, Mott-Hubbard type charge crossover, spin pseudogap and magn…
The charge and spin sectors, which are intimately coupled to the fermionic one, of the t-t' Hubbard model have been computed self-consistently within the two-pole approximation. The relevant unknown correlators appearing in the causal bosonic propagators have been computed by enforcing the constraints dictated by the hydrodynamics and the algebra of the composite operators coming into play. The proposed scheme of approximation extends previous calculations made for the fermionic sector of the t-t' Hubbard model and the bosonic sector of the Hubbard model, which showed to be very effective to d…
We analyze the normal phase of the attractive Hubbard model within dynamical mean-field-theory. We present results for the pair-density, the spin-susceptibility, the specific heat, the momentum distribution, and for the quasiparticle weight. At weak coupling the low-temperature behavior of all quantities is consistent with Fermi liquid theory. At strong coupling all electrons are bound pairs, which leads to a spin gap and removes fermionic quasi-particle excitations. The transition between the Fermi liquid phase and the pair phase takes place at a critical coupling of the order of the band-wid…
We study the formation of charge density waves (CDW's) in one-dimensional Hubbard superlattices, modeled by a repeated pattern of repulsive (U>0) and free (U=0) sites. By means of Lanczos diagonalizations for the ground state, we calculate the charge structure factor. Our results show that while the superlattice structure affects the modulation of the charge density waves, the periodicity can still be predicted through an effective density. We also show that, for a fixed repulsive layer thickness, the periodicity of the CDW is an oscillatory function of the free layer thickness.
We study with exact diagonalization the zero temperature properties of the quarter-filled extended Hubbard model on a square lattice. We find that increasing the ratio of the intersite Coulomb repulsion, $V$, to the band width drives the system from a metal to a charge ordered insulator. The evolution of the optical conductivity spectrum with increasing $V$ is compared to the observed optical conductivity of several layered molecular crystals with the theta and beta'' crystal structures.
In the paper a possibility of metallic ferromagnetic state realization in a generalized Hubbard model with more complete accounting of electron-electron interactions, in particular, the correlated hopping and exchange interaction integrals is investigated. Recently obtained by means of mean-field approximation single electron energy spectrum is used for the description of finite temperature properties of the system. In the paper the expression for the critical temperature of ferromagnet-paramagnet transition is found, the behaviour of temperature dependencies of magnetization and paramagnetic …
We study charge ordering in the extended Hubbard model with both on-site and nearest neighbor Coulomb repulsion (U and V, respectively) within the Coherent potential approximation (CPA). The phase boundary between the homogeneous and charge ordered phase for the square lattice is obtained for different values of U. It is shown that at quarter filling for all values of U the charge ordering exists only if the inter-site Coulomb repulsion V exceeds certain critical value which is of the order of the kinetic energy t. At finite temperature a reentrant transition is found in some region of V.
We investigate the spin/charge transport in a one-dimensional strongly correlated system by using the adaptive time-dependent density-matrix renormalization group method. The model we consider is a non-half-filled Hubbard chain with a bond of controllable spin-dependent electron hoppings, which is found to cause a blockade of spin current with little influence on charge current. We have considered (1) the spread of a wave packet of both spin and charge in the Hubbard chain and (2) the spin and charge currents induced by a spin-dependent voltage bias that is applied to the ideal leads attached …
Determining the nature of band gaps in transition-metal compounds remains challenging. We present a first-principles study on electronic and optical properties of CoO using hybrid functional pseudopotentials. We show that optical absorption spectrum can provide a clear fingerprint to distinguish between Mott-Hubbard, intermediate and charge-transfer insulators. This discrimination is reflected by the qualitative difference in peak satellites due to unique interplay between $d$-$d$ and $p$-$d$ excitations, thus allowing identification from experimental data alone, unlike the existing methods th…
We present a calculation of the recombination rate of the excited holon-doublon pairs based on the two-dimensional model relevant for undoped cuprates which shows that fast processes, observed in pump-probe experiments on Mott-Hubbard insulators in picosecond range, can be explained even quantitatively with the multi-magnon emission. The precondition is the existence of the Mott-Hubbard bound exciton of the s-type. We find that its decay is exponentially dependent on the Mott-Hubbard gap and on the magnon energy, with a small prefactor which can be traced back to strong correlations and conseq…
Using a spin-rotation invariant six-slave boson representation, we study the square lattice Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor hopping $t$ and next-nearest neighbor hopping $t'$. We discuss the influence of $t'$ on the charge and magnetic properties. In the hole-doped domain, we find that a negative $t'$ strongly favors itinerant ferromagnetism over any incommensurate phase, especially in the strong coupling regime. For positive $t'$ magnetic fluctuations are suppressed. A tight connection between frustrated charge dynamics and large magnetic fluctuations is pointed out. A clear tendency towa…
We study the second order finite temperature Mott transition point in the fully frustrated Hubbard model at half filling, within Dynamical Mean Field Theory. Using quantum Monte Carlo simulations we show the existence of a finite temperature second order critical point by explicitly demonstrating the existence of a divergent susceptibility as well as by finding coexistence in the low temperature phase. We determine the location of the finite temperature Mott critical point in the (U,T) plane. Our study verifies and quantifies a scenario for the Mott transition proposed in earlier studies (Revi…
We study formation of local magnetic moments in strongly correlated Hubbard model within dynamical mean field theory and associate peculiarities of temperature dependence of local charge $χ_c$ and spin $χ_s$ susceptibilities with different stages of local moment formation. Local maximum of temperature dependence of the charge susceptibility $χ_c$ is associated with beginning of local magnetic moments formation, while the minimum of the susceptibility $χ_c$ and double occupation, as well as low temperature boundary of the plateau of effective local magnetic moment $μ_{\rm eff}^2=Tχ_s$ temperatu…
Magnetic properties in a charge ordered state are examined for the extended Hubbard model at half-filling. Magnetic excitations, magnetic susceptibilities and a nuclear spin relaxation rate are calculated with taking account of fluctuations around the mean-field solution. The relevance of the present results to the observation in the 1:1 organic conductors, (TTM-TTP)I$_3$, is discussed.
We study the effects of intersite RKKY-like interactions in the mixed valence regime of a two-band extended Hubbard model. This model is known to display a metallic non-Fermi liquid state with spin-charge separation in the standard $D=\infty$ limit (where interactions lead to purely on-site fluctuations only). Using an extended $D=\infty$ approach, we find that the spin-charge separation survives the quantum fluctuations associated with arbitrary intersite density-density interactions and a finite range of intersite spin-exchange interactions. We determine the qualitative behavior of the spin,…
We investigate charge fluctuations in the two-dimensional Hubbard model as a function of doping, interaction strength, next-nearest-neighbor hopping, and temperature within the eight-site dynamical cluster approximation. In the regime of intermediate interaction strengths, we find that $d$ density wave fluctuations, which had previously been postulated using analytical arguments, are present and strong but cannot be interpreted as the cause of the pseudogap in the model, due to their evolution with doping and interaction strength. For all parameters away from half filling, the charge fluctuati…
We investigate the static charge response for the Hubbard model. Using the Slave-Boson method in the saddle-point approximation we calculate the charge susceptibility. We find that RPA works quite well close to half-filling, breaking, of course, down close to the Mott transition. Away from half filling RPA is much less reliable: Already for very small values of the Hubbard interaction U, the linear response becomes much more efficient than RPA, eventually leading to overscreening already beyond quite moderate values of U. To understand this behavior we give a simple argument, which implies tha…
We investigate the dynamical spin and charge structure factors and the one-particle spectral function of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half band-filling using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group method. The influence of the model parameters on these frequency- and momentum-resolved dynamical correlation functions is discussed in detail for the Mott-insulating regime. We find quantitative agreement between our numerical results and experiments for the optical conductivity, resonant inelastic X-ray scattering, neutron scattering, and angle-resolved photoemission sp…
