Exact analytic results for the Gutzwiller wave function with finite magnetization

We present analytic results for ground-state properties of Hubbard-type models in terms of the Gutzwiller variational wave function with non-zero values of the magnetization m. In dimension D=1 approximation-free evaluations are made possible by appropriate canonical transformations and an analysis of Umklapp processes. We calculate the double occupation and the momentum distribution, as well as its discontinuity at the Fermi surface, for arbitrary values of the interaction parameter g, density n, and magnetization m. These quantities determine the expectation value of the one-dimensional Hubbard Hamiltonian for any symmetric, monotonically increasing dispersion epsilon_k. In particular for nearest-neighbor hopping and densities away from half filling the Gutzwiller wave function is found to predict ferromagnetic behavior for sufficiently large interaction U.

Tunneling gap of laterally separated quantum Hall states

We use a method of matched asymptotics to determine the energy gap of two counter-propagating, strongly interacting, quantum Hall edge states. The microscopic edge state dispersion and Coulomb interactions are used to precisely constrain the short-distance behavior of an integrable field theory, which then determines the low energy spectrum. We discuss the relationship of our results to the tunneling measurements of Kang et al., Nature 403, 59 (2000).

Ferromagnetism in Correlated Electron Systems: Generalization of Nagaoka's Theorem

Nagaoka's theorem on ferromagnetism in the Hubbard model with one electron less than half filling is generalized to the case where all possible nearest-neighbor Coulomb interactions (the density-density interaction $V$, bond-charge interaction $X$, exchange interaction $F$, and hopping of double occupancies $F'$) are included. It is shown that for ferromagnetic exchange coupling ($F>0$) ground states with maximum spin are stable already at finite Hubbard interaction $U>U_c$. For non-bipartite lattices this requires a hopping amplitude $t\leq0$. For vanishing $F$ one obtains $U_c\to\infty$ as in Nagaoka's theorem. This shows that the exchange interaction $F$ is important for stabilizing ferromagnetism at finite $U$. Only in the special case $X=t$ the ferromagnetic state is stable even for $F=0$, provided the lattice allows the hole to move around loops.
