Localization problem of the quasiperiodic system with the spin orbit interaction
We study one dimensional quasiperiodic system obtained from the tight-binding
model on the square lattice in a uniform magnetic field with the spin orbit
interaction. The phase diagram with respect to the Harper coupling and the
Rashba coupling are proposed from a number of numerical studies including a
multifractal analysis. There are four phases, I, II, III, and IV in this order
from weak to strong Harper coupling. In the weak coupling phase I all the wave
functions are extended, in the intermediate coupling phases II and III mobility
edges exist, and accordingly both localized and extended wave functions exist,
and in the strong Harper coupling phase IV all the wave functions are
localized. Phase I and Phase IV are related by the duality, and phases II and
III are related by the duality, as well. A localized wave function is related
to an extended wave function by the duality, and vice versa. The boundary
between phases II and III is the self-dual line on which all the wave functions
are critical. In the present model the duality does not lead to pure spectra in
contrast to the case of Harper equation.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figure
Density Matrix Renormalization Group Study of the S=1/2 Anisotropic Antiferromagnetic Heisenberg Chains with Quasiperiodic Exchange Modulation
The low energy behavior of the S=1/2 antiferromagnetic XY-like XXZ chains
with precious mean quasiperiodic exchange modulation is studied by the density
matrix renormalization group method. It is found that the energy gap of the
chain with length N scales as with nonuniversal exponent
if the Ising component of the exhange coupling is antiferromagnetic.
This behavior is expected to be the characteristic feature of the quantum spin
chains with relevant aperiodicity. This is in contrast to the XY chain for
which the precious mean exchange modulation is marginal and the gap scales as
. On the contrary, it is also verified that the energy gap scales as
if the Ising component of the exhange coupling is ferromagnetic. Our
results are not only consistent with the recent bosonization analysis of Vidal,
Mouhanna and Giamarchi but also clarify the nature of the strong coupling
regime which is inaccesssible by the bosonization approach.Comment: 8 pages, 15 figures, 1 table; Proceedings of the workshop 'Frontiers

Quantum Group, Bethe Ansatz and Bloch Electrons in a Magnetic Field
The wave functions for two dimensional Bloch electrons in a uniform magnetic
field at the mid-band points are studied with the help of the algebraic
structure of the quantum group . A linear combination of its
generators gives the Hamiltonian. We obtain analytical and numerical solutions
for the wave functions by solving the Bethe Ansatz equations, proposed by
Wiegmann and Zabrodin on the basis of above observation. The semi-classical
case with the flux per plaquette is analyzed in detail, by exploring
a structure of the Bethe Ansatz equations. We also reveal the multifractal
structure of the Bethe Ansatz solutions and corresponding wave functions when
is irrational, such as the golden or silver mean.Comment: 30 pages, 11 GIF figures(use xv, or WWW browser
Quasiperiodic Modulated-Spring Model
We study the classical vibration problem of a chain with spring constants
which are modulated in a quasiperiodic manner, {\it i. e.}, a model in which
the elastic energy is , where and is an irrational number. For
, it is shown analytically that the spectrum is absolutely
continuous, {\it i.e.}, all the eigen modes are extended. For ,
numerical scaling analysis shows that the spectrum is purely singular
continuous, {\it i.e.}, all the modes are critical.Comment: REV TeX fil
Adiabatic connection between the RVB State and the ground state of the half filled periodic Anderson model
A one-parameter family of models that interpolates between the periodic
Anderson model with infinite repulsion at half-filling and a model whose ground
state is exactly the Resonating-Valence-Bond state is studied. It is shown
numerically that the excitation gap does not collapse. Therefore the ground
states of the two models are adiabatically connected.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures Revte
Real Space Renormalization Group Study of the S=1/2 XXZ Chains with Fibonacci Exchange Modulation
Ground state properties of the S=1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ chain with
Fibonacci exchange modulation are studied using the real space renormalization
group method for strong modulation. The quantum dynamical critical behavior
with a new universality class is predicted in the isotropic case. Combining our
results with the weak coupling renormalization group results by Vidal et al.,
the ground state phase diagram is obtained.Comment: 9 pages, 9 figure
Conductivity of 2D lattice electrons in an incommensurate magnetic field
We consider conductivities of two-dimensional lattice electrons in a magnetic
field. We focus on systems where the flux per plaquette is irrational
(incommensurate flux). To realize the system with the incommensurate flux, we
consider a series of systems with commensurate fluxes which converge to the
irrational value. We have calculated a real part of the longitudinal
conductivity . Using a scaling analysis, we have found
behaves as \,
when and the Fermi energy is near
zero. This behavior is closely related to the known scaling behavior of the
spectrum.Comment: 16 pages, postscript files are available on reques
