Theory on the Stability of the Ferromagnetic Double Layer Structure and on the Peak Structure of the Magneto-Optical Spectra of CeSb
We propose the pf+pd mixing model for CeSb to explain the stability of the
ferromagnetic double layer structure in the magnetic ordering. The pd mixing
causes the saddle type singular points, neighboring the axis, for the
bands which gain energy through the pf hybridization with the occupied f state.
The peak of the density of states due to this combined effect of the pf mixing
and the pd mixing enhances the stability of the double layer structure. The
same combined effect also causes the saddle type singular points in the joint
density of states of the optical transition. The peak structure of the
magneto-optical spectra which has been observed in experiments is explained by
the present model.Comment: 9 pages, 14 figure
Single Impurity Anderson Model with Coulomb Repulsion between Conduction Electrons on the Nearest-Neighbour Ligand Orbital
We study how the Kondo effect is affected by the Coulomb interaction between
conduction electrons on the basis of a simplified model. The single impurity
Anderson model is extended to include the Coulomb interaction on the
nearest-neighbour ligand orbital. The excitation spectra are calculated using
the numerical renormalization group method. The effective bandwidth on the
ligand orbital, , is defined to classify the state. This quantity
decreases as the Coulomb interaction increases. In the
region, the low energy properties are described by the Kondo state, where
is the hybridization width. As decreases in this region, the
Kondo temperature is enhanced, and its magnitude becomes comparable to
for . In the region, the local
singlet state between the electrons on the and ligand orbitals is formed.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, LaTeX, to be published in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn Vol.

Gap formation and soft phonon mode in the Holstein model
We investigate electron-phonon coupling in many-electron systems using
dynamical mean-field theory in combination with the numerical renormalization
group. This non-perturbative method reveals significant precursor effects to
the gap formation at intermediate coupling strengths. The emergence of a soft
phonon mode and very strong lattice fluctuations can be understood in terms of
Kondo-like physics due to the development of a double-well structure in the
effective potential for the ions
Coexistence of vector chiral order and Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid in the frustrated three-leg spin tube in a magnetic field
The frustrated three-leg antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 tube with a weak
interchain coupling in a magnetic field is investigated by means of Abelian
bosonization techniques. It is clearly shown that a vector chiral order and a
one-component Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid coexist in a wide magnetic-field region
from a state with a small magnetization to a nearly saturated one. The chiral
order is predicted to still survive in the intermediate plateau state. We
further predict that (even) when the strength of one bond in the three rung
couplings is decreased (increased), an Ising type quantum phase transition
takes place and the chirality vanishes (no singular phenomena occur and the
chiral order is maintained). Even without magnetic fields, the chiral order
would also be present, if the spin tube possess easy-plane anisotropy.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, Revtex, published versio
Numerical Renormalization Group Study of non-Fermi-liquid State on Dilute Uranium Systems
We investigate the non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) behavior of the impurity Anderson
model (IAM) with non-Kramers doublet ground state of the f configuration
under the tetragonal crystalline electric field (CEF). The low energy spectrum
is explained by a combination of the NFL and the local-Fermi-liquid parts which
are independent with each other. The NFL part of the spectrum has the same form
to that of two-channel-Kondo model (TCKM). We have a parameter range that the
IAM shows the divergence of the magnetic susceptibility together with
the positive magneto resistance. We point out a possibility that the anomalous
properties of UThRuSi including the decreasing resistivity
with decreasing temperature can be explained by the NFL scenario of the TCKM
type. We also investigate an effect of the lowering of the crystal symmetry. It
breaks the NFL behavior at around the temperature, , where
is the orthorhombic CEF splitting. The NFL behavior is still expected above the
temperature, .Comment: 25 pages, 12 figure
Magnetized Domain Walls in the Deconfined Sakai-Sugimoto Model at Finite Baryon Density
The magnetized pure pion gradient () phase in the deconfined
Sakai-Sugimoto model is explored at zero and finite temperature. We found that
the temperature has very small effects on the phase. The thermodynamical
properties of the phase shows that the excitations behave like a scalar
solitonic free particles. By comparing the free energy of the pion gradient
phase to the competing multiquark-pion gradient (MQ-) phase,
it becomes apparent that the pure pion gradient is less thermodynamically
preferred than the MQ- phase. However, in the parameter space
where the baryonic chemical potential is smaller than the onset value of the
multiquark, the dominating magnetized nuclear matter is the pion gradient
phase.Comment: 20 pages, 9 figure
Band Calculation for Ce-compounds on the basis of Dynamical Mean Field Theory
The band calculation scheme for electron compounds is developed on the
basis of the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) and the LMTO method. The
auxiliary impurity problem is solved by a method named as NCAv', which
includes the correct exchange process of the virtual
excitation as the vertex correction to the non-crossing approximation (NCA) for
the fluctuation. This method leads to the correct magnitude
of the Kondo temperature, , and makes it possible to carry out
quantitative DMFT calculation including the crystalline field (CF) and the
spin-orbit (SO) splitting of the self-energy. The magnetic excitation spectra
are also calculated to estimate . It is applied to Ce metal and CeSb
at T=300 K as the first step. In Ce metal, the hybridization intensity (HI)
just below the Fermi energy is reduced in the DMFT band. The photo-emission
spectra (PES) have a conspicuous SO side peak, similar to that of experiments.
is estimated to be about 70 K in -Ce, while to be about
1700 K in -Ce. In CeSb, the double-peak-like structure of PES is
reproduced. In addition, which is not so low is obtained because HI
is enhanced just at the Fermi energy in the DMFT band.Comment: 30pages, 18 figure
