Numerical Evidence of Luttinger and Fermi Liquid Behaviour in the 2D Hubbard Model
The two dimensional Hubbard model with a single spin-up electron interacting
with a finite density of spin-down electrons is studied using the quantum
Monte Carlotechnique, a new conjugate gradient method for the evaluation of
the Edwards wavefunction ansatz, and the standard second order perturbation
theory. We performed simulations up to 242 sites at reaching the zero
temperature properties with no ``fermion sign problem'' and found a
surprisingly good accuracy of the Edwards wavefunction ansatz at low density or
low doping. The conjugate gradient method was then applied to system up to 1922
sites and infinite for the Edwards state. Fermi liquid theory seems to
remain stable in 2D for all cases studied with the exception of the half
filling case where a ``Luttinger like behavior'' survives in the Hubbard model
, yielding a vanishing quasiparticle weight in the thermodynamic limit.Comment: 10 pages + 4 pictures, RevTex, SISSA 121/93/CM/M
