Quantum Phase Transitions to Charge Order and Wigner Crystal Under Interplay of Lattice Commensurability and Long-Range Coulomb Interaction
Relationship among Wigner crystal, charge order and Mott insulator is studied
by the path-integral renormalization group method for two-dimensional lattices
with long-range Coulomb interaction. In contrast to Hartree-Fock results, the
solid stability drastically increases with lattice commensurability. The
transition to liquid occurs at the electron gas parameter for the
filling showing large reduction from in the continuum
limit. Correct account of quantum fluctuations are crucial to understand
charge-order stability generally observed only at simple fractional fillings
and nature of quantum liquids away from them.Comment: 4 pages including 7 figure
Quantum-number projection in the path-integral renormalization group method
We present a quantum-number projection technique which enables us to exactly
treat spin, momentum and other symmetries embedded in the Hubbard model. By
combining this projection technique, we extend the path-integral
renormalization group method to improve the efficiency of numerical
computations. By taking numerical calculations for the standard Hubbard model
and the Hubbard model with next nearest neighbor transfer, we show that the
present extended method can extremely enhance numerical accuracy and that it
can handle excited states, in addition to the ground state.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Absence of Translational Symmetry Breaking in Nonmagnetic Insulator Phase on Two-Dimensional Lattice with Geometrical Frustration
The ground-state properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model with
nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor hoppings at half filling are studied
by the path-integral-renormalization-group method. The nonmagnetic-insulator
phase sandwiched by the the paramagnetic-metal phase and the
antiferromagnetic-insulator phase shows evidence against translational symmetry
breaking of the dimerized state, plaquette singlet state, staggered flux state,
and charge ordered state. These results support that the genuine Mott insulator
which cannot be adiabatically continued to the band insulator is realized
generically by Umklapp scattering through the effects of geometrical
frustration and quantum fluctuation in the two-dimensional system.Comment: 4 pages and 7 figure
Numerical investigations of mechanical stress caused in dendrite by melt convection and gravity
In order to investigate the effects of stress around dendrite neck cased by the convection and gravity on the dendrite fragmentation, the novel numerical model, where phase-field method, Navier-Stokes equations and finite element method are continuously and independently employed, has been developed. By applying the model to the dendritic solidification of Al-Si alloy, the maximum stress variations by melt convection and gravity with dendrite growth were evaluated
Precise estimation of shell model energy by second order extrapolation method
A second order extrapolation method is presented for shell model
calculations, where shell model energies of truncated spaces are well described
as a function of energy variance by quadratic curves and exact shell model
energies can be obtained by the extrapolation. This new extrapolation can give
more precise energy than those of first order extrapolation method. It is also
clarified that first order extrapolation gives a lower limit of shell model
energy. In addition to the energy, we derive the second order extrapolation
formula for expectation values of other observables.Comment: PRC in pres
Nonmagnetic Insulating States near the Mott Transitions on Lattices with Geometrical Frustration and Implications for -(ET)Cu
We study phase diagrams of the Hubbard model on anisotropic triangular
lattices, which also represents a model for -type BEDT-TTF compounds.
In contrast with mean-field predictions, path-integral renormalization group
calculations show a universal presence of nonmagnetic insulator sandwitched by
antiferromagnetic insulator and paramagnetic metals. The nonmagnetic phase does
not show a simple translational symmetry breakings such as flux phases,
implying a genuine Mott insulator. We discuss possible relevance on the
nonmagnetic insulating phase found in -(ET)Cu.Comment: 4pages including 7 figure
Thermodynamic Relations in Correlated Systems
Several useful thermodynamic relations are derived for metal-insulator
transitions, as generalizations of the Clausius-Clapeyron and Eherenfest
theorems. These relations hold in any spatial dimensions and at any
temperatures. First, they relate several thermodynamic quantities to the slope
of the metal-insulator phase boundary drawn in the plane of the chemical
potential and the Coulomb interaction in the phase diagram of the Hubbard
model. The relations impose constraints on the critical properties of the Mott
transition. These thermodynamic relations are indeed confirmed to be satisfied
in the cases of the one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models. One of these
relations yields that at the continuous Mott transition with a diverging charge
compressibility, the doublon susceptibility also diverges. The constraints on
the shapes of the phase boundary containing a first-order metal-insulator
transition at finite temperatures are clarified based on the thermodynamic
relations. For example, the first-order phase boundary is parallel to the
temperature axis asymptotically in the zero temperature limit. The
applicability of the thermodynamic relations are not restricted only to the
metal-insulator transition of the Hubbard model, but also hold in correlated
systems with any types of phases in general. We demonstrate such examples in an
extended Hubbard model with intersite Coulomb repulsion containing the charge
order phase.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figure
From Display to Labelled Proofs for Tense Logics
We introduce an effective translation from proofs in the display calculus to proofs in the labelled calculus in the context of tense logics. We identify the labelled calculus proofs in the image of this translation as those built from labelled sequents whose underlying directed graph possesses certain properties. For the basic normal tense logic Kt, the image is shown to be the set of all proofs in the labelled calculus G3Kt

A Hamiltonian-based solution to the mixed sensitivity optimization problem for stable pseudorational plants
This paper considers the mixed sensitivity optimization problem for a class of infinite-dimensional stable plants. This problem is reducible to a two- or one-block H∞ control problem with structured weighting functions. We first show that these weighting functions violate the genericity assumptions of existing Hamiltonian-based solutions such as the well-known Zhou-Khargonekar formula. Then, we derive a new closed form formula for the computation of the optimal performance level, when the underlying plant structure is specified by a pseudorational transfer function. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.
