    Mechanism of confinement in low-dimensional organic conductors

    Full text link
    Confinement-deconfinement transition in quarter-filled two-coupled chains comprising dimerization, repulsive interactions and interchain hopping has been demonstrated by applying the renormalization group method to the bosonized Hamiltonian. The confinement given by the irrelevant interchain hopping occurs with increasing umklapp scattering which is induced by the dimerization leading to effectively half-filling. It is shown that the transition originates in a competition between a charge gap and the renormalized interchain hopping.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figures, Proc. CREST Int.

    Competition of superfluidity and density waves in one-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

    Full text link
    We study a mixture of one-dimensional bosons and spinless fermions at incommensurate filling using phenomenological bosonization and Green's functions techniques. We derive the relation between the parameters of the microscopic Hamiltonian and macroscopic observables. Galilean invariance results in extra constraints for the current current interactions. We obtain the exact exponents for the various response functions, and show that superfluid fluctuations are enhanced by the effective boson-fermion density-density interaction and suppressed by the effective boson-fermion current-current interaction. In the case of a bosonized model with purely density-density interaction, when the effective boson-fermion density-density interaction is weak enough, the superfluid exponent of the bosons has a non-monotonous variation with the ratio of the fermion velocity to the boson velocity. By contrast, density-wave exponent and the exponent for fermionic superfluidity are monotonous functions of the velocity ratio.Comment: 9 pages, RevTeX 4, 1 EPS figur

    On the Mott glass in the one-dimensional half-filled charge density waves

    Full text link
    We study the effect of impurity pinning on a one-dimensional half-filled electron system, which is expressed in terms of a phase Hamiltonian with the charge degree of freedom. Within the classical treatment, the pinned state is examined numerically. The Mott glass, which has been pointed out by Orignac et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett 83 (1999) 2378], appears in the intermediate region where the impurity potential competes with the commensurate potential. Such a state is verified by calculating the soliton formation energy, the local restoring force around the pinned state and the optical conductivity.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figures, to be published in J.

    Role of Phase Variables in Quarter-Filled Spin Density Wave States

    Full text link
    Several kinds of spin density wave (SDW) states with both quarter-filled band and dimerization are reexamined for a one-dimensional system with on-site, nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor repulsive interactions, which has been investigated by Kobayashi et al. (J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 67 (1998) 1098). Within the mean-field theory, the ground state and the response to the density variation are calculated in terms of phase variables, θ\theta and ϕ\phi, where θ\theta expresses the charge fluctuation of SDW and ϕ\phi describes the relative motion between density wave with up spin and that with down spin respectively. It is shown that the exotic state of coexistence of 2k_F-SDW and 2k_F-charge density wave (CDW) is followed by 4k_F-SDW but not by 4k_F-CDW where k_F denotes a Fermi wave vector. The harmonic potential with respect to the variation of θ\theta and/or ϕ\phi disappears for the interactions, which lead to the boundary between the pure 2k_F-SDW state and the corresponding coexistent state.Comment: 9 pages, 15 figures, to be published in J.

    Interchain-Frustration-Induced Metallic State in Quasi-One-Dimensional Mott Insulators

    Full text link
    The mechanism that drives a metal-insulator transition in an undoped quasi-one-dimensional Mott insulator is examined in the framework of the Hubbard model with two different hoppings t_{perp 1} and t_{perp 2} between nearest-neighbor chains. By applying an N_{perp}-chain renormalization group method at the two-loop level, we show how a metallic state emerges when both t_{perp 1} and t_{perp 2} exceed critical values. In the metallic phase, the quasiparticle weight becomes finite and develops a strong momentum dependence. We discuss the temperature dependence of the resistivity and the impact of our theory in the understanding of recent experiments on half-filled molecular conductors.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, published versio

    N\'eel and singlet RVB orders in the t-J model

    Full text link
    The N\'eel and the singlet RVB orders of the {\it t-J} model in a 2D square lattice are studied in the slave-boson mean-field approximation. It is shown that the N\'eel order parameter takes the maximum value at the finite temperature and disappear at the lower temperature for a certain range of doping. It is also shown that the N\'eel and the singlet RVB orders coexist at low temperature. This suggests the possibility of the coexistence of the N\'eel and the superconducting orders.Comment: RevTeX, 8 pages, 1 postscript figure. To appear in Physica C, Volume 257, issue 38

    Exact-Differential Large-Scale Traffic Simulation

    Get PDF
    Analyzing large-scale traffics by simulation needs repeating execution many times with various patterns of scenarios or parameters. Such repeating execution brings about big redundancy because the change from a prior scenario to a later scenario is very minor in most cases, for example, blocking only one of roads or changing the speed limit of several roads. In this paper, we propose a new redundancy reduction technique, called exact-differential simulation, which enables to simulate only changing scenarios in later execution while keeping exactly same results as in the case of whole simulation. The paper consists of two main efforts: (i) a key idea and algorithm of the exact-differential simulation, (ii) a method to build large-scale traffic simulation on the top of the exact-differential simulation. In experiments of Tokyo traffic simulation, the exact-differential simulation shows 7.26 times as much elapsed time improvement in average and 2.26 times improvement even in the worst case as the whole simulation

    Cooper Pair Formation in U(1) Gauge Theory of High Temperature Superconductivity

    Full text link
    We study the two-dimensional spin-charge separated Ginzburg-Landau theory containing U(1) gauge interactions as a semi-phenomenological model describing fluctuating condensates in high temperature superconductivity. Transforming the original GL action, we abstract the effective action of Cooper pair. Especially, we clarify how Cooper pair correlation evolves in the normal state from the point of view of spin-charge separation. Furthermore, we point out how Cooper pair couples to gauge field in a gauge-invariant way, stressing the insensitivity of Cooper pair to infrared gauge field fluctuation.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures included, submitted to J.
