Exact Solution of the strong coupling t-V model with twisted boundary conditions

We present the solution of the one-dimensional t-V model with twisted boundary conditions in the strong coupling limit, t<<V and show that this model can be mapped onto the strong coupling Hubbard chain threaded by a fictitious flux proportional to the total momentum of the charge carriers. The high energy eigenstates are characterized by a factorization of degrees of freedom associated with configurations of soliton and antisoliton domains and degrees of freedom associated with the movement of ``holes'' through these domains. The coexistence of solitons and antisolitons leads to a strange flux dependence of the eigenvalues. We illustrate the use of this solution, deriving the full frequency dependence of the optical conductivity at half-filling and zero temperature.

Finite-Temperature Transport in Finite-Size Hubbard Rings in the Strong-Coupling Limit

We study the current, the curvature of levels, and the finite temperature charge stiffness, D(T,L), in the strongly correlated limit, U>>t, for Hubbard rings of L sites, with U the on-site Coulomb repulsion and t the hopping integral. Our study is done for finite-size systems and any band filling. Up to order t we derive our results following two independent approaches, namely, using the solution provided by the Bethe ansatz and the solution provided by an algebraic method, where the electronic operators are represented in a slave-fermion picture. We find that, in the U=\infty case, the finite-temperature charge stiffness is finite for electronic densities, n, smaller than one. These results are essencially those of spinless fermions in a lattice of size L, apart from small corrections coming from a statistical flux, due to the spin degrees of freedom. Up to order t, the Mott-Hubbard gap is Δ_{MH}=U-4t, and we find that D(T) is finite for n<1, but is zero at half-filling. This result comes from the effective flux felt by the holon excitations, which, due to the presence of doubly occupied sites, is renormalized to Φ^{eff}=ϕ(N_h-N_d)/(N_d+N_h), and which is zero at half-filling, with N_d and N_h being the number of doubly occupied and empty lattice sites, respectively. Further, for half-filling, the current transported by any eigenstate of the system is zero and, therefore, D(T) is also zero.

Superconducting Upper Critical Field Near a 2D Van Hove Singularity

The superconducting upper critical field $H_{c2}(T)$ of a two dimensional BCS superconductor is calculated in the vicinity of a van-Hove singularity. The zero temperature upper critical field is strongly enhanced at weak coupling when the Fermi contour coincides with van-Hove points, scaling as $H_{c2}(0) \propto T_c^{\sqrt{2}}$ compared to the usual result $H_{c2}(0) \propto T_c^{2}$. The result can be interpreted in terms of the non-Fermi liquid decay of normal state pair correlations in the vicinity of a van-Hove point.

Upper Critical Field in a Spin-Charge Separated Superconductor

It is demonstrated that the spatial decay of the pair propagator in a Luttinger liquid with spin charge separation contains a logarithmic correction relative to the free fermi gas result in a finite interval between the spin and charge thermal lengths. It is argued that similar effects can be expected in higher dimensional systems with spin charge separation and that the temperature dependence of the upper critical field $H_{c2}$ curve is a probe of this effect.
