Quantum Energy Teleportation in Spin Chain Systems
We propose a protocol for quantum energy teleportation which transports
energy in spin chains to distant sites only by local operations and classical
communication. By utilizing ground-state entanglement and notion of negative
energy density region, energy is teleported without breaking any physical laws
including causality and local energy conservation. Because not excited physical
entity but classical information is transported in the protocol, the
dissipation rate of energy in transport is expected to be strongly suppressed.Comment: 22 pages, 4 figure, to be published in JPS
Electric Dipolar Susceptibility of the Anderson-Holstein Model
The temperature dependence of electric dipolar susceptibility \chi_P is
discussed on the basis of the Anderson-Holstein model with the use of a
numerical renormalization group (NRG) technique. Note that P is related with
phonon Green's function D. In order to obtain correct temperature dependence of
P at low temperatures, we propose a method to evaluate P through the Dyson
equation from charge susceptibility \chi_c calculated by the NRG, in contrast
to the direct NRG calculation of D. We find that the irreducible charge
susceptibility estimated from \chi_c agree with the perturbation calculation,
suggesting that our method works well.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Density-matrix renormalization study of the frustrated fermions on the triangular lattice
We show that the two-dimensional density-matrix renormalization analysis is
useful to detect the symmetry breaking in the fermionic model on a triangular
lattice. Under the cylindrical boundary conditions with chemical potentials on
edge sites, we find that the open edges work as perturbation to select the
strongest correlations {\it only in the presence of a long range order}. We
also demonstrate that the ordinary size scaling analysis on the charge gap as
well as that of the local charge density under this boundary condition could
determine the metal-insulator phase boundary, which scales almost perfectly
with the density of states and the exact solutions in the weak and strong
coupling region, respectively.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure
Quadrupole Susceptibility of Gd-Based Filled Skutterudite Compounds
It is shown that quadrupole susceptibility can be detected in Gd compounds
contrary to our textbook knowledge that Gd ion induces pure spin moment
due to the Hund's rules in an coupling scheme. The ground-state multiplet
of Gd is always characterized by =7/2, where denotes total
angular momentum, but in a - coupling scheme, one electron in =7/2
octet carries quadrupole moment, while other six electrons fully occupy =5/2
sextet, where denotes one-electron total angular momentum. For realistic
values of Coulomb interaction and spin-orbit coupling, the ground-state
wavefunction is found to contain significant amount of the - coupling
component. From the evaluation of quadrupole susceptibility in a simple
mean-field approximation, we point out a possibility to detect the softening of
elastic constant in Gd-based filled skutterudites.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
Kondo Effect in an Electron System with Dynamical Jahn-Teller Impurity
We investigate how Kondo phenomenon occurs in the Anderson model dynamically
coupled with local Jahn-Teller phonons. It is found that the total angular
moment composed of electron pseudo-spin and phonon angular moments is screened
by conduction electrons. Namely, phonon degrees of freedom essentially
contribute to the formation of singlet ground state. A characteristic
temperature of the Kondo effect due to dynamical Jahn-Teller phonons is
explained by an effective - Hamiltonian with anisotropic exchange
interaction obtained from the Jahn-Teller-Anderson model in a non-adiabatic
region.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Electron Mass Enhancement due to Anharmonic Local Phonons
In order to understand how electron effective mass is enhanced by anharmonic
local oscillation of an atom in a cage composed of other atoms, i.e., {\it
rattling}, we analyze anharmonic Holstein model by using a Green's function
method. Due to the evaluation of an electron mass enhancement factor , we
find that becomes maximum when zero-point energy is comparable with
potential height at which the amplitude of oscillation is rapidly enlarged.
Cooperation of such quantum and rattling effects is considered to be a key
issue to explain the electron mass enhancement in electron-rattling systems.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures, to appear in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. Suppl.

Enhanced Kondo Effect in an Electron System Dynamically Coupled with Local Optical Phonon
We discuss Kondo behavior of a conduction electron system coupled with local
optical phonon by analyzing the Anderson-Holstein model with the use of a
numerical renormalization group (NRG) method. There appear three typical
regions due to the balance between Coulomb interaction and
phonon-mediated attraction . For , we
observe the standard Kondo effect concerning spin degree of freedom. Since the
Coulomb interaction is effectively reduced as , the
Kondo temperature is increased when is increased. On
the other hand, for , there occurs the Kondo effect
concerning charge degree of freedom, since vacant and double occupied states
play roles of pseudo-spins. Note that in this case, is decreased
with the increase of . Namely, should be maximized for
. Then, we analyze in detail the Kondo behavior
at , which is found to be explained by the polaron
Anderson model with reduced hybridization of polaron and residual repulsive
interaction among polarons. By comparing the NRG results of the polaron
Anderson model with those of the original Anderson-Holstein model, we clarify
the Kondo behavior in the competing region of .Comment: 8 pages, 8 figure
Strong coupling theory of the spinless charges on the triangular lattices: possibility of a new quantum liquid
We propose a new type of charge liquid state in the spinless fermion system
on a triangular lattice under strong inter-site Coulomb interactions, . In
the strong coupling limit (), the ground state is classical and disordered
due to geometrical frustration. The introduction of small t will drive the
system to a partially ordered phase which we call a "pinball liquid". A
possibly long range ordered Wigner crystal solid coexist with a liquid
component which are moving around them like a pinball. This liquid is dominant
over wide range of filling, even away from the regular triangle, and is also
realized in the hard core boson systems. Relevance to the organic theta-ET_2X
is discsussed.Comment: 4pages, 7figure
Multipole as -Electron Spin-Charge Density in Filled Skutterudites
It is shown that -electron multipole is naturally defined as spin-charge
one-electron density operator in the second-quantized form with the use of
tensor operator on the analogy of multipole expansion of electromagnetic
potential from charge distribution in electromagnetism. Due to this definition
of multipole, it is possible to determine multipole state from a microscopic
viewpoint on the basis of the standard linear response theory for multipole
susceptibility. In order to discuss multipole properties of filled
skutterudites, we analyze a seven-orbital impurity Anderson model by employing
a numerical renormalization group method. We show our results on possible
multipole states of filled skutterudite compounds.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of International Conference on "New

Multipole correlations in low-dimensional f-electron systems
By using a density matrix renormalization group method, we investigate the
ground-state properties of a one-dimensional three-orbital Hubbard model on the
basis of a j-j coupling scheme. For , where is a parameter
to control cubic crystalline electric field effect, one orbital is itinerant,
while other two are localized. Due to the competition between itinerant and
localized natures, we obtain orbital ordering pattern which is sensitive to
, leading to a characteristic change of quadrupole state
into an incommensurate structure. At , all the three orbitals are
degenerate, but we observe a peak at in quadrupole
correlation, indicating a ferro-orbital state, and the peak at in
dipole correlation, suggesting an antiferromagnetic state. We
also discuss the effect of octupole on magnetic anisotropy.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, Proceedings of ASR-WYP-2005 (September 27-29,
