Random Dispersion Approximation for the Hubbard model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use the Random Dispersion Approximation (RDA) to study the Mott-Hubbard transition in the Hubbard model at half band filling. The RDA becomes exact for the Hubbard model in infinite dimensions. We implement the RDA on finite chains and employ the Lanczos exact diagonalization method in real space to calculate the ground-state energy, the average double occupancy, the charge gap, the momentum distribution, and the quasi-particle weight. We find a satisfactory agreement with perturbative results in the weakand strong-coupling limits. A straightforward extrapolation of the RDA data for L ≤ 14 lattice results in a continuous Mott-Hubbard transition at Uc ≈ W . We discuss the significance of a possible signature of a coexistence region between insulating and metallic ground states in the RDA that would correspond to the scenario of a discontinuous Mott-Hubbard transition as found in numerical investigations of the Dynamical Mean-Field Theory for the Hubbard model.

Correlations in the Layered Electron Gas
The self-consistent theory of Singwi, Tosi, Land and Sjolander (STLS), which accounts for exchange and short-range correlation effects through an effective potential depending on the structure factor, is generalized to the Visscher and Falicov model of the layered electron gas. The complete numerical solution of the STLS self-consistent equations provides information about intraplane and inter...
متن کاملElementary electronic excitations in one-dimensional continuum and lattice systems
We systematically investigate the mode dispersion and spectral weight of the elementary excitation spectra in one-dimensional continuum and lattice electron systems by using the RPA, the Luttinger liquid model, and the Hubbard model. Both charge and spin excitations are studied in detail and compared among the theoretical models. For the lattice Hubbard model we use both Bethe-ansatz equations ...

We calculate the density of states in the half-filled Hubbard model on a Bethe lattice with infinite connectivity. Based on our analytical results to second order in t/U , we propose a new ‘Fixed-Energy Exact Diagonalization’ scheme for the numerical study of the Dynamical Mean-Field Theory. Corroborated by results from the Random Dispersion Approximation, we find that the gap opens at Uc = 4.4...

We study the charge-density dynamics within the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model in the presence of long-range Coulomb interaction across the metal-insulator transition point. To take into account strong correlations we start from self-consistent extended dynamical mean-field theory and include nonlocal dynamical vertex corrections through a ladder approximation to the polarization operat...
متن کاملRandom Phase Approximation for Multi-Band Hubbard Models
We derive the random-phase approximation for spin excitations in general multi-band Hubbard models, starting from a collinear ferromagnetic HartreeFock ground state. The results are compared with those of a recently introduced variational many-body approach to spin-waves in itinerant ferromagnets. As we exemplify for Hubbard models with one and two bands, the two approaches lead to qualitativel...
