Theoretical study of quasiparticle states near the surface of a quasi-one-dimensional organic superconductor $({TMTSF})_{2}{PF}_6$

Quasiparticle states near the surface of a quasi-one-dimensional organic superconductor $({TMTSF})_{2}{PF}_6$ are studied based on an extended Hubbard model on a quasi-one dimensional lattice at quarter-filling. Three types of pairing symmetries, (i) p-wave, (ii) d-wave, or (iii) $f$-wave are assumed. The resulting surface density of states has characteristic features for each pairing symmetry: i) a zero-energy peak (ZEP) in a U-shaped structure, ii) a V-shaped structure without ZEP, and iii) a ZEP in a V-shaped structure. From these results, we propose that the tunneling spectroscopy serves as a strong method to identify the the pairing symmetry in $({TMTSF})_{2}{PF}_6$.

Hofstadter butterfly and integer quantum Hall effect in three dimensions

For a three-dimensional lattice in magnetic fields we have shown that the hopping along the third direction, which normally tends to smear out the Landau quantization gaps, can rather give rise to a fractal energy spectram akin to Hofstadter's butterfly when a criterion, found here by mapping the problem to two dimensions, is fulfilled by anisotropic (quasi-one-dimensional) systems. In 3D the angle of the magnetic field plays the role of the field intensity in 2D, so that the butterfly can occur in much smaller fields. The mapping also enables us to calculate the Hall conductivity, in terms of the topological invariant in the Kohmoto-Halperin-Wu's formula, where each of $σ_{xy}, σ_{zx}$ is found to be quantized.

Ferromagnetism in a Hubbard model for an atomic quantum wire: a realization of flat-band magnetism from even-membered rings

We have examined a Hubbard model on a chain of squares, which was proposed by Yajima et al as a model of an atomic quantum wire As/Si(100), to show that the flat-band ferromagnetism according to a kind of Mielke-Tasaki mechanism should be realized for an appropriate band filling in such a non-frustrated lattice. Reflecting the fact that the flat band is not a bottom one, the ferromagnetism vanishes, rather than intensified, as the Hubbard U is increased. The exact diagonalization method is used to show that the critical value of U is in a realistic range. We also discussed the robustness of the magnetism against the degradation of the flatness of the band.
