Fermi surface renormalization and quantum confinement in the two-coupled chains model

We address the problem of the Fermi surface renormalization and the quantum confinement regime (QCR) in the two coupled chains model(TCCM) of spinless fermions. We perform a self-consistent calculation of the renormalization group(RG) flows of the renormalized TCCM couplings and quasiparticle weight. On top of that we take explicitly into account the renormalization of the Fermi surface. The flow of the difference of the renormalized Fermi wave vectors associated with the bonding and antibonding bands has a dramatic effect on the single particle spectrum. Although the quasiparticle amplitude is nullified already at intermediate coupling the QCR is only observed at strong coupling. The state associated with this regime has a charge gap and it is not a Luttinger liquid. In contrast, the Fermi liquid regime is stabilized by the umklapp "$g_2$--like" interactions at very weak coupling regime.

Breakdown of the Fermi-liquid regime in the 2D Hubbard model from a two-loop field-theoretical renormalization group approach

We analyze the particle-hole symmetric two-dimensional Hubbard model on a square lattice starting from weak-to-moderate couplings by means of the field-theoretical renormalization group (RG) approach up to two-loop order. This method is essential in order to evaluate the effect of the momentum-resolved anomalous dimension $η(\textbf{p})$ which arises in the normal phase of this model on the corresponding low-energy single-particle excitations. As a result, we find important indications pointing to the existence of a non-Fermi liquid (NFL) regime at temperature $T\to 0$ displaying a truncated Fermi surface (FS) for a doping range exactly in between the well-known antiferromagnetic insulating and the $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave singlet superconducting phases. This NFL evolves as a function of doping into a correlated metal with a large FS before the $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave pairing susceptibility finally produces the dominant instability in the low-energy limit.

Renormalization group calculation of the uniform susceptibilities in low-dimensional systems

We analyze the one-dimensional (1D) and the two-dimensional (2D) repulsive Hubbard models (HM) for densities slightly away from half-filling through the behavior of two central quantities of a system: the uniform charge and spin susceptibilities. We point out that a consistent renormalization group treatment of them can only be achieved within a two-loop approach or beyond. In the 1D HM, we show that this scheme reproduces correctly the metallic behavior given by the well-known Luttinger liquid fixed-point result. Then, we use the same approach to deal with the more complicated 2D HM. In this case, we are able to show that both uniform susceptibilities become suppressed for moderate interaction parameters as one take the system towards the Fermi surface. Therefore, this result adds further support to the interpretation that those systems are in fact insulating spin liquids. Later, we perform the same calculations in 2D using the conventional random phase approximation, and establish clearly a comparison between the two schemes.

Insulating spin liquid in the lightly doped two-dimensional Hubbard model

We calculate the charge compressibility and uniform spin susceptibility for the two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model slightly away from half-filling within a two-loop renormalization group scheme. We find numerically that both those quantities flow to zero as we increase the initial interaction strength from weak to intermediate couplings. This result implies gap openings in both charge and spin excitation spectra for the latter interaction regime. When this occurs, the ground state of the lightly doped 2D Hubbard model may be interpreted as an insulating spin liquid as opposed to a Mott insulating state.

Short-Range Order in a Flat Two-Dimensional Fermi Surface

We present the two-loop renormalization group (RG) calculations of all the susceptibilities associated with the two-dimensional flat Fermi surface with rounded corners (FS). Our approach follows our fermionic field theory RG method presented in detail earlier on. In one loop order our calculation reproduce the results obtained previously by other RG schemes. All susceptibilities diverge at some energy scale and the antiferromagnetic SDW correlations produce indeed the dominant instability in the physical system. In contrast, in two-loop order, for a given initial set of values of coupling constant regime only one of the susceptibilities at a time seems to diverge.
