Exact solution of the 1D Hubbard model in the atomic limit with inter-site magnetic coupling
2012
In this paper we present for the first time the exact solution in the narrow-band limit of the 1D extended Hubbard model with nearest-neighbour spin-spin interactions described by an exchange constant J. An external magnetic field h is also taken into account. This result has been obtained in the framework of the Green's functions formalism, using the Composite Operator Method. By means of this theoretical background, we have studied some relevant features such as double occupancy, magnetization, spin-spin and charge-charge correlation functions and derived a phase diagram for both ferro (J>0) and anti-ferro (J<0) coupling in the limit of zero temperature. We also report a study on de…
Exact solution of the 1D Hubbard model with NN and NNN interactions in the narrow-band limit
2013
We present the exact solution, obtained by means of the Transfer Matrix (TM) method, of the 1D Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) Coulomb interactions in the atomic limit (t=0). The competition among the interactions ($U$, $V_1$, and $V_2$) generates a plethora of T=0 phases in the whole range of fillings. $U$, $V_1$, and $V_2$ are the intensities of the local, NN and NNN interactions, respectively. We report the T=0 phase diagram, in which the phases are classified according to the behavior of the principal correlation functions, and reconstruct a representative electronic configuration for each phase. In order to do that, we make an analytic limit $T\…
Equations-of-motion approach to the spin-12Ising model on the Bethe lattice
2006
We exactly solve the ferromagnetic spin- 1/2 Ising model on the Bethe lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field by means of the equations of motion method within the Green's function formalism. In particular, such an approach is applied to an isomorphic model of localized Fermi particles interacting via an intersite Coulomb interaction. A complete set of eigenoperators is found together with the corresponding eigenvalues. The Green's functions and the correlation functions are written in terms of a finite set of parameters to be self-consistently determined. A procedure is developed that allows us to exactly fix the unknown parameters in the case of a Bethe lattice with any coor…
Spin and charge orderings in the atomic limit of the U-V-J model
2011
In this paper we study a generalization of the 1D Hubbard model by considering density-density and Ising-type spin-spin nearest neighbor (NN) interactions, parameterized by $V$ and $J$, respectively. We present the T=0 phase diagram for both ferro ($J>0$) and anti-ferro ($J<0$) coupling obtained in the narrow-band limit by means of an extension to zero-temperature of the transfer-matrix method. Based on the values of the Hamiltonian parameters, we identify a number of phases that involve orderings of the double occupancy, NN density and spin correlations, being these latter very fragile.
Entanglement Properties and Phase Diagram of the Two-Orbital Atomic Hubbard Model
2009
We study the two-orbital Hubbard model in the limit of vanishing kinetic energy. The phase diagram in the $V-J$ plane, with $V$ and $J$ denoting the interorbital hybridization and exchange coupling respectively, at half filling is obtained. A singlet(dimer)-triplet transition is found for a critical value of the ratio $V/J.$ The entropy of formation, both in the mode and in the particle picture, presents a jump as the same critical line in conformity with the suggested relation between criticality and entanglement.
XXZ-like phase in the F-AF anisotropic Heisenberg chain
2008
By means of the Density Matrix Renormalization Group technique, we have studied the region where $XXZ$-like behavior is most likely to emerge within the phase diagram of the F-AF anisotropic extended ($J-J'$) Heisenberg chain. We have analyzed, in great detail, the equal-time two-spin correlation functions, both in- and out-of- plane, as functions of the distance (and momentum). Then, we have extracted, through an accurate fitting procedure, the exponents of the asymptotic power-law decay of the spatial correlations. We have used the exact solution of $XXZ$ model ($J'=0$) to benchmark our results, which clearly show the expected agreement. A critical value of $J'$ has been found where the r…
Emery vs. Hubbard model for cuprate superconductors: A composite operator method study
2013
Within the Composite Operator Method (COM), we report the solution of the Emery model (also known as p-d or three band model), which is relevant for the cuprate high-Tc superconduc- tors. We also discuss the relevance of the often-neglected direct oxygen-oxygen hopping for a more accurate, sometimes unique, description of this class of materials. The benchmark of the solution is performed by comparing our results with the available quantum Monte Carlo ones. Both single- particle and thermodynamic properties of the model are studied in detail. Our solution features a metal-insulator transition at half filling. The resulting metal-insulator phase diagram agrees qual- itatively very well with …
The Composite Operator Method (COM)
2011
The Composite Operator Method (COM) is formulated, its internals illustrated in detail and some of its most successful applications reported. COM endorses the emergence, in strongly correlated systems (SCS), of composite operators, optimally deals with their unusual features and implements algebra constraints, and other relevant symmetries, in order to properly compute the unconventional properties of SCS.
