Many-polaron states in the Holstein-Hubbard model
نویسندگان
چکیده
A variational approach is proposed to determine some properties of the adiabatic Holstein-Hubbard model which describes the interactions between a static atomic lattice and an assembly of fermionic charge carriers. The sum of the electronic energy and the lattice elastic energy is proved to have minima with a polaron structure in a certain domain of the phase diagram. Our analytical work consists in the expansion of these energy minima from the zero electronic transfer limit which remarkably holds for a finite amplitude of the onsite Hubbard repulsion and for an unbounded lattice size.

Polaron cross-overs and d-wave superconductivity in Hubbard-Holstein model
We present a theoretical study of superconductivity of polarons in the Hubbard-Holstein model. A residual kinematic interaction proportional to the square of the polaron hopping energy between polarons and phonons provides a pairing field for the polarons. We find that superconducting instability in the dwave channel is possible with small transition temperatures which is maximum in the large t...
متن کامل5 J ul 2 00 6 Fröhlich Polarons From 3 D to 0 D . Concepts and Recent Developments
As is generally known, the polaron concept was introduced by Landau in 1933 [1]. Gradually a distinction was made between polarons in the continuum approximation where long-range electron-lattice interaction prevails (“Fröhlich”polarons) and polarons for which the short-range interaction is essential (Holstein, Holstein-Hubbard models). After a period of initial theoretical [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7...
متن کاملMolecular crystal approach for π-conjugated polymers: from PPP Hamiltonian to Holstein model for polaron states
Starting from the π-electrons Pariser-Parr-Pople (PPP) Hamiltonian which includes both strong electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions, we propose a strongly correlated wave function for the ground state of conjugated polymers. This wavefunction describes nearest-neighbour intermonomer charge fluctuations in the background of paired electrons localized on monomers. With this picture, ...

The Holstein Hubbard and Holstein t–J models are studied for a wide range of phonon frequencies, electron–electron and electron–phonon interaction strengths on finite lattices with up to ten sites by means of direct Lanczos diagonalization. Previously the necessary truncation of the phononic Hilbert space caused serious limitations to either very small systems (four or even two sites) or to wea...
