Magnetism and Superconductivity in a Two-band Hubbard Model in Infinite Dimensions

We study a two-band Hubbard model using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact diagonalization method. At the electron density $n=2$, a transition from a band-insulator to a correlated semimetal occurs when the on-site Coulomb interaction $U$ is varied for a fixed value of the charge-transfer energy $\Delta$. At low temperature, the correlated semimetal shows ferromagnetism or superconductivity. With increasing doping $|n-2|$, the ferromagnetic transition temperature rapidly decreases and finally becomes zero at a critical value of $n$. The second-order phase transition occurs at high temperature, while a phase separation of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic states takes place at low temperature. The superconducting transition temperature gradually decreases and finally becomes zero near $n=1$ ($n=3$) where the system is Mott insulator which shows antiferromagnetism at low temperature.Comment: 3 pages, 5 figures, proceedings of the International Conference on Strongly Correlated Electrons with Orbital Degrees of Freedom (ORBITAL2001

Charge Gap in the One-Dimensional Extended Hubbard Model at Quarter Filling

We propose a new combined approach of the exact diagonalization, the renormalization group and the Bethe ansatz for precise estimates of the charge gap $\Delta$ in the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model with the onsite and the nearest-neighbor interactions $U$ and $V$ at quarter filling. This approach enables us to obtain the absolute value of $\Delta$ including the prefactor without ambiguity even in the critical regime of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) where $\Delta$ is exponentially small, beyond usual renormalization group methods and/or finite size scaling approaches. The detailed results of $\Delta$ down to of order of $10^{-10}$ near the MIT are shown as contour lines on the $U$-$V$ plane.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Ferromagnetism and Superconductivity in the multi-orbital Hubbard Model: Hund's Rule Coupling versus Crystal-Field Splitting

The multi-orbital Hubbard model in one dimension is studied using the numerical diagonalization method. Due to the effect of the crystal-field splitting $\Delta$, the fully polarized ferromagnetism which is observed in the strong coupling regime becomes unstable against the partially polarized ferromagnetism when the Hund's rule coupling $J$ is smaller than a certain critical value of order of $\Delta$. In the vicinity of the partially polarized ferromagnetism, the orbital fluctuation develops due to the competition between the Hund's rule coupling and the crystal-field splitting. The superconducting phase with the Luttinger liquid parameter $K_{\rho}>1$ is observed for the singlet ground state in this region.Comment: 4 pages,5 figures,submitted to J.Phys.Soc.Jp

Random matrix model at nonzero chemical potentials with anomaly effects

Phase diagram of the chiral random matrix model with U(1)A breaking term is studied with the quark chemical potentials varied independently at zero temperature, by taking the chiral and meson condensates as the order parameters. Although, without the U(1)A breaking term, chiral transition of each flavor can happen separately responding to its chemical potential, the U(1)A breaking terms mix the chiral condensates and correlate the phase transitions. In the three flavor case, we find that there are mixings between the meson and chiral condensates due to the U(1)A anomaly, which makes the meson condensed phase more stable. Increasing the hypercharge chemical potential ($\mu_Y$) with the isospin and quark chemical potentials ($\mu_I$, $\mu_q$) kept small, we observe that the kaon condensed phase becomes the ground state and at the larger $\mu_Y$ the pion condense phase appears unexpectedly, which is caused by the competition between the chiral restoration and the meson condensation. The similar happens when $\mu_Y$ and $\mu_I$ are exchanged, and the kaon condensed phase becomes the ground state at larger $\mu_I$ below the full chiral restoration.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figure
