Coulomb Liquid Phases of Bosonic Cluster Mott Insulators on a Pyrochlore Lattice.
Employing large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we reveal the full phase diagram of the extended Hubbard model of hard-core bosons on the pyrochlore lattice with partial fillings. When the intersite repulsion is dominant, the system is in a cluster Mott insulator phase with an integer number of bosons localized inside the tetrahedral units of the pyrochlore lattice. We show that the full...
متن کاملUltra-fast photo-carrier relaxation in Mott insulators with short-range spin correlations
Ultra-fast spectroscopy can reveal the interplay of charges with low energy degrees of freedom, which underlies the rich physics of correlated materials. As a potential glue for superconductivity, spin fluctuations in Mott insulators are of particular interest. A theoretical description of the coupled spin and charge degrees of freedom is challenging, because magnetic order is often only short-...
متن کاملNonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory of strongly correlated electrons
We present a review of our recent work in extending the successful dynamical mean-field theory from the equilibrium case to nonequilibrium cases. In particular, we focus on the problem of turning on a spatially uniform, but possibly time varying, electric field (neglecting all magnetic field effects). We show how to work with a manifestly gauge-invariant formalism, and compare numerical calcula...
متن کاملTheory of electric polarization in multiorbital Mott insulators.
The interaction between the electric field E and spins in multiorbital Mott insulators is studied theoretically. We find a generic coupling mechanism, which works for all crystal lattices and which does not involve relativistic effects. It couples E to the "internal" electric field e originating from the dynamical Berry phase. We discuss several effects of this interaction: (i) an unusual elect...
