Five-Dimensional BF Theory and Four-Dimensional Current Algebra
We consider the relation between the five-dimensional BF model and a
four-dimensional local current algebra from the point of view of perturbative
local quantum field theory. We use an axial gauge fixing procedure and show
that it allows for a well defined theory which actually can be solved exactly.Comment: 15 pages LaTeX file +3 Figures in TexDraw (available from hep-th)

Exact Results for 1D Kondo Lattice from Bosonization
We find a solvable limit to the problem of the 1D electron gas interacting
with a lattice of Kondo scattering centers. In this limit, we present exact
results for the problems of incommensurate filling, commensurate filling,
impurity vacancy states, and the commensurate-incommensurate transition.Comment: 4 pages, two columns, Latex fil
Landau theory of phase separation in cuprates
I discuss the problem of phase separation in cuprates from the point of view
of the Landau theory of Fermi liquids. I calculate the rate of growth of
unstable regions for the hydrodymanics and collisionless limit and, in presence
of long range Coulomb interactions, the size of these regions. These are
analytic results valid for any strength of the Landau parameters.Comment: RevteX, preprint ITP (1994
Effects of Umklapp Scattering on Electronic States in One Dimension
The effects of Umklapp scattering on electronic states are studied in one
spatial dimension at absolute zero. The model is basically the Hubbard model,
where parameters characterizing the normal () and Umklapp () scattering
are treated independently. The density of states is calculated in the t-matrix
approximation by taking only the forward and Umklapp scattering into account.
It is found that the Umklapp scattering causes the global splitting of the
density of states. In the presence of sufficiently strong Umklapp scattering, a
pole in the t-matrix appears in the upper half plane, signalling an instability
towards the 'pairing' ordered state ( is the reciprocal lattice
vector), whose consequences are studied in the mean field approximation. It
turns out that this ordered state coexists with spin-density-wave state and
also brings about Cooper-pairs. A phase diagram is determined in the plane of
and electron filling .Comment: 22 pages, LaTeX, 17 figures included, uses jpsj.st
Pressure-induced enhancement of superconductivity and superconducting-superconducting transition in CaC
We measured the electrical resistivity, , of superconducting
CaC at ambient and high pressure up to 16 GPa. For 8 GPa, we found
a large increase of with pressure from 11.5 up to 15.1 K. At 8 GPa,
drops and levels off at 5 K above 10 GPa. Correspondingly, the residual
increases by 200 times and the behavior
becomes flat. The recovery of the pristine behavior after depressurization is
suggestive of a phase transition at 8 GPa between two superconducting phases
with good and bad metallic properties, the latter with a lower and more
static disorder
Charge ordering in extended Hubbard models: Variational cluster approach
We present a generalization of the recently proposed variational cluster
perturbation theory to extended Hubbard models at half filling with repulsive
nearest neighbor interaction. The method takes into account short-range
correlations correctly by the exact diagonalisation of clusters of finite size,
whereas long-range order beyond the size of the clusters is treated on a
mean-field level. For one dimension, we show that quantum Monte Carlo and
density-matrix renormalization-group results can be reproduced with very good
accuracy. Moreover we apply the method to the two-dimensional extended Hubbard
model on a square lattice. In contrast to the one-dimensional case, a first
order phase transition between spin density wave phase and charge density wave
phase is found as function of the nearest-neighbor interaction at onsite
interactions U>=3t. The single-particle spectral function is calculated for
both the one-dimensional and the two-dimensional system.Comment: 15 pages, 12 figure
Block-block entanglement and quantum phase transitions in one-dimensional extended Hubbard model
In this paper, we study block-block entanglement in the ground state of
one-dimensional extended Hubbard model. Our results show that the phase diagram
derived from the block-block entanglement manifests richer structure than that
of the local (single site) entanglement because it comprises nonlocal
correlation. Besides phases characterized by the charge-density-wave, the
spin-density-wave, and phase-separation, which can be sketched out by the local
entanglement, singlet superconductivity phase could be identified on the
contour map of the block-block entanglement. Scaling analysis shows that behavior of the block-block entanglement may exist in both
non-critical and the critical regions, while some local extremum are induced by
the finite-size effect. We also study the block-block entanglement defined in
the momentum space and discuss its relation to the phase transition from
singlet superconducting state to the charge-density-wave state.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figure
Charge Excitations in Doped Mott Insulator in One Dimension
The doped Mott insulator in one dimension has been studied based on the phase
Hamiltonian with the Umklapp scattering process, in which the charge degree of
freedom is described by the quantum sine-Gordon model. The well-known
equivalence between the quantum sine-Gordon model and the massive Thirring
model for the spinless fermion makes it clear that the Mott-Hubbard gap
originates from the Umklapp scattering process as was indicated by Emery and
Giamarchi. Compressibility, density-density correlation function, frequency
dependence of optical conductivity and Drude weight have been calculated in the
presence of the impurity scattering treated in the self-consistent Born
approximation. It is seen that there exists a crossover behavior in the
spectral weight of charge excitations: the acoustic mode is dominant in small
wave number region while the optical excitations across the Mott-Hubbard gap
lie in large wave number region and that this crossover wave number is reduced
as the Mott transition is approached.Comment: We revised our previous manuscript. 17 pages and 11 figures, to be
