Density-matrix functional theory of the Hubbard model: An exact numerical study
A density functional theory for many-body lattice models is considered in
which the single-particle density matrix is the basic variable. Eigenvalue
equations are derived for solving Levy's constrained search of the interaction
energy functional W, which is expressed as the sum of Hartree-Fock energy and
the correlation energy E_C. Exact results are obtained for E_C of the Hubbard
model on various periodic lattices. The functional dependence of E_C is
analyzed by varying the number of sites, band filling and lattice structure.
The infinite one-dimensional chain and one-, two-, or three-dimensional finite
clusters with periodic boundary conditions are considered. The properties of
E_C are discussed in the limits of weak and strong electronic correlations, as
well as in the crossover region. Using an appropriate scaling we observe a
pseudo-universal behavior which suggests that the correlation energy of
extended systems could be obtained quite accurately from finite cluster
calculations. Finally, the behavior of E_C for repulsive (U>0) and attractive
(U<0) interactions are contrasted.Comment: Phys. Rev. B (1999), in pres
