    Effects of Next-Nearest-Neighbor Hopping on the Hole Motion in an Antiferromagnetic Background

    Full text link
    In this paper we study the effect of next-nearest-neighbor hopping on the dynamics of a single hole in an antiferromagnetic (N\'{e}el) background. In the framework of large dimensions the Green function of a hole can be obtained exactly. The exact density of states of a hole is thus calculated in large dimensions and on a Bethe lattice with large coordination number. We suggest a physically motivated generalization to finite dimensions (e.g., 2 and 3). In d=2d=2 we present also the momentum dependent spectral function. With varying degree, depending on the underlying lattice involved, the discrete spectrum for holes is replaced by a continuum background and a few resonances at the low energy end. The latter are the remanents of the bound states of the tJt-J model. Their behavior is still largely governed by the parameters tt and JJ. The continuum excitations are more sensitive to the energy scales tt and t1t_1.Comment: To appear in Phys. Rev. B, Revtex, 23 pages, 10 figures available on request from [email protected]

    Conductivity in a symmetry broken phase: Spinless fermions with 1/d1/d corrections

    Full text link
    The dynamic conductivity σ(ω)\sigma(\omega) of strongly correlated electrons in a symmetry broken phase is investigated in the present work. The model considered consists of spinless fermions with repulsive interaction on a simple cubic lattice. The investigated symmetry broken phase is the charge density wave (CDW) with wave vector Q=(π,π,π)Q=(\pi,\pi,\pi)^\dagger which occurs at half-filling. The calculations are based on the high dimensional approach, i.e. an expansion in the inverse dimension 1/d1/d is used. The finite dimensionality is accounted for by the inclusion of linear terms in 1/d1/d and the true finite dimensional DOS. Special care is paid to the setup of a conserving approximation in the sense of Baym/Kadanoff without inconsistencies. The resulting Bethe-Salpeter equation is solved for the dynamic conductivity in the non symmetry broken and in the symmetry broken phase (AB-CDW). The dc-conductivity is reduced drastically in the CDW. Yet it does not vanish in the limit T0T \to 0 due to a subtle cancellation of diverging mobility and vanishing DOS. In the dynamic conductivity σ(ω)\sigma(\omega) the energy gap induced by the symmetry breaking is clearly discernible. In addition, the vertex corrections of order 1/d1/d lead to an excitonic resonance lying within the gap.Comment: 23 pages, 19 figures included with psfig, Revtex; Physical Review B15, in press (October/November 1996) depending on the printer/screen driver, it might be necessary to comment out figures 3,4,5,10,11,12,19 and have them printed separatel

    Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock simulation of the expansion of abraded nuclei

    Full text link
    A recent interpretation of the caloric curve based on the expansion of the abraded spectator nucleus is re-analysed in the framework of the Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) evolution. It is shown that the TDHF dynamics is more complex than a single monopolar collective motion at moderate energy. The inclusion of other important collective degrees of freedom may lead to the dynamical creation of hollow structure. Then, low density regions could be locally reached after a long time by the creation of these exotic density profiles. In particular the systematic of the minimum density reached during the expansion (the so-called turning points) appears to be different.Comment: 30 Latex pages including 9 figure

    Warehouse design and planning: A mathematical programming approach

    Get PDF
    The dynamic nature of today's competitive markets compels organizations to an incessant reassessment in an effort to respond to continuous challenges. Therefore, warehouses as an important link in most supply chains, must be continually re-evaluated to ensure that they are consistent with both market's demands and management's strategies. A number of warehouse decision support models have been proposed in the literature but considerable difficulties in applying these models still remain, due to the large amount of information to be processed and to the large number of possible alternatives. In this paper we discuss a mathematical programming model aiming to support some warehouse management and inventory decisions. In particular a large mixed-integer nonlinear programming model (MINLP) is presented to capture the trade-offs among the different inventory and warehouse costs in order to achieve global optimal design satisfying throughput requirements.(undefined)info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Magnetic and lattice polaron in Holstein-t-J model

    Full text link
    We investigate the interplay between the formation of lattice and magnetic polaron in the case of a single hole in the antiferromagnetic background. We present an exact analytical solution of the Holstein-t-J model in infinite dimensions. Ground state energy, electron-lattice correlation function, spin bag dimension as well as spectral properties are calculated. The magnetic and hole-lattice correlations sustain each other, i.e. the presence of antiferromagnetic correlations favors the formation of the lattice polaron at lower value of the electron-phonon coupling while the polaronic effect contributes to reduce the number of spin defects in the antiferromagnetic background. The crossover towards a spin-lattice small polaron region of the phase diagram becomes a discontinuous transition in the adiabatic limit.Comment: revtex, 8 eps figures included NEW version.

    Hole motion in the Ising antiferromagnet: an application of the recursion method

    Full text link
    We study hole motion in the Ising antiferromagnet using the recursion method. Using the retraceable path approximation we find the hole's Green's function as well as its wavefunction for arbitrary values of t/Jzt/J_z. The effect of small transverse interaction also is taken into account. Our results provide some additional insight into the self-consistent Born approximation.Comment: 8 pages, RevTex, no figures.

    Plaquette operators used in the rigorous study of ground-states of the Periodic Anderson Model in D=2D = 2 dimensions

    Full text link
    The derivation procedure of exact ground-states for the periodic Anderson model (PAM) in restricted regions of the parameter space and D=2 dimensions using plaquette operators is presented in detail. Using this procedure, we are reporting for the first time exact ground-states for PAM in 2D and finite value of the interaction, whose presence do not require the next to nearest neighbor extension terms in the Hamiltonian. In order to do this, a completely new type of plaquette operator is introduced for PAM, based on which a new localized phase is deduced whose physical properties are analyzed in detail. The obtained results provide exact theoretical data which can be used for the understanding of system properties leading to metal-insulator transitions, strongly debated in recent publications in the frame of PAM. In the described case, the lost of the localization character is connected to the break-down of the long-range density-density correlations rather than Kondo physics.Comment: 34 pages, 5 figure

    Nonfatal Strangulation in a Sample of Domestically Violent Stalkers: The Importance of Recognizing Coercively Controlling Behaviors

    Get PDF
    © 2019 International Association for Correctional and Forensic Psychology. Strangulation is different to other types of physical violence as it often leaves no visible injuries and is frequently motivated by coercive control. Few studies have explored nonfatal strangulation and coercive control, and no studies have explored these factors within a sample of stalkers. Given that stalking perpetrators exhibit many of the coercively controlling behaviors related to nonfatal strangulation, the current study explored nonfatal strangulation and other coercively controlling behaviors in a stalking sample. A police dataset of 9,884 cases of domestic violence that involved stalking was analyzed. Results revealed that coercive control and related behaviors of excessive jealousy, victim isolation, victim fear, and victim’s belief that the perpetrator will kill them were associated with higher likelihood of having experienced nonfatal strangulation. These results may help first responders to identify victims at risk of nonfatal strangulation and suggest a need for nonfatal strangulation to be a criminal offense
