Freezing of spin dynamics and omega/T scaling in underdoped cuprates
The memory function approach to spin dynamics in doped antiferromagnetic
insulator combined with the assumption of temperature independent static spin
correlations and constant collective mode damping leads to omega/T scaling in a
broad range. The theory involving a non universal scaling parameter is used to
analyze recent inelastic neutron scattering results for underdoped cuprates.
Adopting modified damping function also the emerging central peak in low-doped
cuprates at low temperatures can be explained within the same framework.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures; to appear in Journal of Physics: Conference

Magnetic response of nonmagnetic impurities in cuprates
A theory of the local magnetic response of a nonmagnetic impurity in a doped
antiferromagnet, as relevant to the normal state in cuprates, is presented. It
is based on the assumption of the overdamped collective mode in the bulk system
and on the evidence, that equal-time spin correlations are only weakly
renormalized in the vicinity of the impurity. The theory relates the Kondo-like
behavior of the local susceptibility to the anomalous temperature dependence of
the bulk magnetic susceptibility, where the observed increase of the Kondo
temperature with doping reflects the crossover to the Fermi liquid regime and
the spatial distribution of the magnetization is given by bulk
antiferromagnetic correlations.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Freezing of spin dynamics in underdoped cuprates
The Mori's memory function approach to spin dynamics in doped
antiferromagnetic insulator combined with the assumption of temperature
independent static spin correlations and constant collective mode damping leads
to w/T scaling in a broad range. The theory involving a nonuniversal scaling
parameter is used to analyze recent inelastic neutron scattering results for
underdoped cuprates. Adopting modified damping function also the emerging
central peak in low-doped cuprates at low temperatures can be explained within
the same framework.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Analysis of transport properties of iron pnictides: spin-fluctuation scenario
We present a phenomenological theory of quasiparticle scattering and
transport relaxation in the normal state of iron pnictides based on the
simplified two-band model coupled via spin fluctuations. In analogy with
anomalous properties of cuprates it is shown that a large and anomalous
normal-state resistivity and thermopower can be interpreted as the consequence
of strong coupling to spin fluctuations. The generalization to the
superconducting phase is also discussed.Comment: Revised version, 6 pages, 11 references adde
Electron momentum distribution of a single mobile hole in the t-J model
We investigate the electron momentum distribution function (EMDF) for the
two-dimensional t-J model. The results are based on the self-consistent Born
approximation (SCBA) for the self-energy and the wave function. In the Ising
limit of the model we give the results in a closed form, in the Heisenberg
limit the results are obtained numerically. An anomalous momentum dependence of
EMDF is found and the anomaly is in the lowest order in number of magnons
expressed analitycally. We interpret the anomaly as a fingerprint of an
emerging large Fermi surface coexisting with hole pockets.Comment: M2S - submitted to Physica
Scaling of the magnetic response in doped antiferromagnets
A theory of the anomalous scaling of the dynamic magnetic response
in cuprates at low doping is presented. It is based on the memory function
representation of the dynamical spin suceptibility in a doped antiferromagnet
where the damping of the collective mode is constant and large, whereas the
equal-time spin correlations saturate at low . Exact diagonalization results
within the t-J model are shown to support assumptions. Consequences, both for
the scaling function and the normalization amplitude, are well in agreement
with neutron scattering results.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Crossover to non-Fermi-liquid spin dynamics in cuprates
The antiferromagnetic spin correlation function , the staggered
spin susceptibility and the energy scale are studied numerically within the t-J model and the Hubbard
model, as relevant to cuprates. It is shown that , related to the
onset of the non-Fermi-liquid spin response at , is very low in
the regime below the 'optimum' hole doping , while it
shows a steep increase in the overdoped regime. A quantitative analysis of NMR
spin-spin relaxation-rate for various cuprates reveals a similar
behavior, indicating on a sharp, but continuous, crossover between a
Fermi-liquid and a non-Fermi-liquid behavior as a function of doping.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. Submitted to PR
Entanglement of two delocalised electrons
Several convenient formulae for the entanglement of two indistinguishable
delocalised spin-1/2 particles are introduced. This generalizes the standard
formula for concurrence, valid only in the limit of localised or
distinguishable particles. Several illustrative examples are given.Comment: 4 page
