Spatial fluctuations of spin and orbital in two-orbital Hubbard model

We investigate the quasiparticle dynamics in the two-orbital Hubbard model on the square lattice at quarter filling by means of the cellular dynamical mean field theory. We show that the Fermi-liquid state is stabilized up to the large Hubbard interactions in the symmetric case without the Hund's coupling, and find the heavy quasiparticles around the metal-insulator boundary. It is elucidated that the Hund's coupling enhances the antiferro-orbital correlations, which give rise to the pseudo gap behavior in the single-particle excitations. We also find the nonmonotonic temperature dependence in the quasiparticle dynamics for intermediate strength of the Hund's coupling, and clarify that it is caused by the competition between the Fermi-liquid formation and the antiferro-orbital fluctuations.

Density-Wave and Antiferromagnetic States of Fermionic Atoms in Optical Lattices

We study the two-band effects on ultracold fermionic atoms in optical lattices by means of dynamical mean-field theory. We find that at half-filling the atomic-density-wave (ADW) state emerges owing to the two-band effects in the attractive interaction region, while the antiferromagnetic state appears in the repulsive interaction region. As the orbital splitting is increased, the quantum phase transitions from the ADW state to the superfluid state and from the antiferromagnetic state to the metallic state occur in respective regions. Systematically changing the orbital splitting and the interaction, we obtain the phase diagram at half-filling. The results are discussed using the effective boson model derived for the strong attractive interaction.

Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid in quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet BaCo2V2O8 in magnetic fields

Motivated by recent studies on the quasi-one-dimensional (1D) antiferromagnet BaCo2V2O8, we investigate the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid properties of the 1D S=1/2 XXZ Heisenberg-Ising model in magnetic fields. By using the Bethe ansatz solution, thermodynamic quantities and the divergence exponent of the NMR relaxation rate are calculated. We observe a magnetization minimum as a function of temperature (T) close to the critical field. As the magnetic field approaches the critical field, the minimum temperature asymptotically approaches the universal relation in agreement with the recent results by Maeda et al. in Phys. Rev. Lett. 99 (2007) 057205. We observe T-linear specific heat below the temperature of the magnetization minimum. The field dependence of its coefficient agrees with the results based on conformal field theory. The field dependence of the divergence exponent of the NMR relaxation rate with decreasing temperature is obtained, indicating a change in the critical properties. The results are discussed in connection with experiments on BaCo2V2O8.

Three-orbital Kondo effect in single quantum dot system with plural electrons

We study the Kondo effect and related transport properties in orbitally degenerate vertical quantum dot systems with plural electrons. Applying the non-crossing approximation to the three-orbital Anderson impurity model with the finite Coulomb interaction and Hund-coupling, we investigate the magnetic-field dependence of the conductance and thermopower. We also introduce an additional orbital splitting to take account of the realistic many-body effect in the vertical quantum dot system. It is clarified how the three-orbital Kondo effect influences the transport properties via the modulation of the Kondo temperature and unitary limit of transport quantities due to the change of the symmetry in the system.

Multiband-Driven Superfluid-Insulator Transition of Fermionic Atoms in Optical Lattices: A Dynamical Mean-Field-Theory Study

The superfluid-insulator transitions of the fermionic atoms in optical lattices are investigated by the two-site dynamical mean-field theory. It is shown that the Mott transition occurs as a result of the multiband effects. The quasiparticle weight in the superfluid state decreases significantly, as the system approaches the Mott transition point. By changing the interaction and the orbital splitting, we obtain the phase diagram at half filling. The numerical results are discussed in comparison with the effective boson model.

Anomalous magnetic properties near Mott transition in Kagomé lattice Hubbard model

We investigate the characteristics of the metallic phase near the Mott transition in the Kagomé lattice Hubbard model using the cellular dynamical mean field theory. By calculating the specific heat and spin correlation functions, we demonstrate that the quasiparticles show anomalous properties in the metallic phase close to the Mott transition. We find clear evidence for the multi-band heavy quasiparticles in the specific heat, which gives rise to unusual temperature dependence of the spin correlation functions.

Magnetic correlations around the Mott transition in the Kagomé lattice Hubbard model

We study the magnetic properties around the Mott transition in the Kagomé lattice Hubbard model by the cellular dynamical mean field theory combined with quantum Monte Carlo simulations. By investigating the q-dependence of the susceptibility, we find a dramatic change of the dominant spin fluctuations around the Mott transition. The spin fluctuations in the insulating phase favor down to the lowest temperature a spatial spin configuration in which antiferromagnetic correlations are strong only in one chain direction but almost vanishing in the others.

Non-Crossing Approximation Study of Multi-Orbital Kondo Effect in Quantum Dot Systems

We study the three-orbital Kondo effect in quantum dot (QD) systems by applying the non-crossing approximation to the three-orbital Anderson impurity model. By investigating the tunneling conductance through a QD, we show that the competition between the Hund-coupling and the orbital level-splitting gives rise to characteristic behavior in transport properties. It is found that the Hund-coupling becomes more important in the three-orbital case than in the two-orbital case. We also show that the enhancement of Kondo temperature due to the singlet-triplet mechanism suggested for the two-orbital model tends to be suppressed by the existence of the third orbital.

Dynamical properties of S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chains at finite temperatures

Dynamical structure factors of the S=1 bond-alternating spin chains in the dimer phase are calculated at finite temperature, using the pair dynamical correlated-effective-field approximation. At T=0, the delta-function-type peak of the one-magnon mode appears. When temperature is increased, such a sharp peak is broadened and the additional weak peak caused by the excitation from the triplet state to the quintet state emerges in the higher energy region. The results are discussed in comparison with those obtained by the exact diagonalization method.

Phase diagram of orbital-selective Mott transitions at finite temperatures

Mott transitions in the two-orbital Hubbard model with different bandwidths are investigated at finite temperatures. By means of the self-energy functional approach, we discuss the stability of the intermediate phase with one orbital localized and the other itinerant, which is caused by the orbital-selective Mott transition (OSMT). It is shown that the OSMT realizes two different coexistence regions at finite temperatures in accordance with the recent results of Liebsch. We further find that the particularly interesting behavior emerges around the special condition $U=U'$ and J=0, which includes a new type of the coexistence region with three distinct states. By systematically changing the Hund coupling, we establish the global phase diagram to elucidate the key role played by the Hund coupling on the Mott transitions.

Finite-temperature Mott transitions in multi-orbital Hubbard model

We investigate the Mott transitions in the multi-orbital Hubbard model at half-filling by means of the self-energy functional approach. The phase diagrams are obtained at finite temperatures for the Hubbard model with up to four-fold degenerate bands. We discuss how the first-order Mott transition points $U_{c1}$ and $U_{c2}$ as well as the critical temperature $T_c$ depend on the orbital degeneracy. It is elucidated that enhanced orbital fluctuations play a key role to control the Mott transitions in the multi-orbital Hubbard model.

Dynamical properties of S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chains in transverse magnetic fields

We calculate dynamical structure factors of the S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chain with a single-ion anisotropy in transverse magnetic fields, using a continued fraction method based on the Lanczos algorithm. In the Haldane-gap phase and the dimer phase, dynamical structure factors show characteristic field dependence. Possible interpretations are discussed. The numerical results are in qualitative agreement with recent results for inelastic neutron-scattering experiments on the S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg-chain compound $\rm{Ni(C_{9}D_{24}N_{4})(NO_{2})ClO_{4}}$ and the S=1 Haldane-gap compound $\rm{Ni(C_{5}D_{14}N_{2})_{2}N_{3}(PF_{6})}$ in transverse magnetic fields.

Magnetic properties of a Kondo insulator with RKKY interaction: Extended dynamical mean field study

We study the Kondo lattice model with the Heisenberg-type RKKY-exchange coupling among localized f-spins in the presence of a magnetic field. By means of an extended dynamical mean field theory combined with the non-crossing approximation, we investigate the one-particle spectral function and the dynamical spin correlation function in the Kondo insulating phase. It is shown that the magnetic field and the RKKY exchange interaction both cause the instability to the antiferromagnetic order with enhanced transverse spin fluctuations, which give rise to a strong renormalization of quasi-particles as the system approaches the quantum critical point. This leads to a tendency to retain the Kondo insulating gap up to rather large fields.

Incommensurate state in a quasi-one-dimensional $S=1/2$ bond-alternating antiferromagnet with frustration in magnetic fields

We investigate the critical properties of the $S=1/2$ bond-alternating spin chain with a next-nearest-neighbor interaction in magnetic fields. By the numerical calculation and the exact solution based on the effective Hamiltonian, we show that there is a parameter region where the longitudinal incommensurate spin correlation becomes dominant around the half-magnetization of the saturation. Possible interpretations of our results are discussed. We next investigate the effects of the interchain interaction ($J^{\prime}$). The staggered susceptibility and the uniform magnetization are calculated by combining the density-matrix renormalization group method with the interchain mean-field theory. For the parameters where the dominant longitudinal incommensurate spin correlation appears in the case $J^{\prime}=0$, the staggered long-range order does not emerge up to a certain critical value of $J^{\prime}$ around the half-magnetization of the saturation. We calculate the static structure factor in such a parameter region. The size dependence of the static structure factor at $k=2k_{\rm F}$ implies that the system has a tendency to form an incommensurate long-range order around the half-magnetization of the saturation. We discuss the recent experimental results for the NMR relaxation rate in magnetic fields performed for pentafluorophenyl nitronyl nitroxide.

Field-induced phase transition in the periodic Anderson model

We investigate the effect of magnetic fields on a Kondo insulator by using the periodic Anderson model. The analysis by dynamical mean field theory combined with quantum Monte Carlo simulations reveals that the magnetic field drives the Kondo insulator to a transverse antiferromagnetic insulator at low temperatures. We calculate the staggered spin susceptibility and find its divergence signaling the antiferromagnetic instability. Further investigation of the spin correlation functions and the magnetization process clarifies how the magnetic field suppresses the Kondo singlet formation and induces the transverse antiferromagnetic ordering.

Field-induced phase transitions in a Kondo insulator

We study the magnetic-field effect on a Kondo insulator by exploiting the periodic Anderson model with the Zeeman term. The analysis using dynamical mean field theory combined with quantum Monte Carlo simulations determines the detailed phase diagram at finite temperatures. At low temperatures, the magnetic field drives the Kondo insulator to a transverse antiferromagnetic phase, which further enters a polarized metallic phase at higher fields. The antiferromagnetic transition temperature $T_c$ takes a maximum when the Zeeman energy is nearly equal to the quasi-particle gap. In the paramagnetic phase above $T_c$, we find that the electron mass gets largest around the field where the quasi-particle gap is closed. It is also shown that the induced moment of conduction electrons changes its direction from antiparallel to parallel to the field.

Dynamical structure factors of S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chains

We calculate the dynamical structural factor of the S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chain. In the Haldane phase, the lowest excited states form the lower edge of the multimagnon continuum in $0 \leq q \leq q_c$ and the one-magnon mode in $q_c \leq q \leq π$. As the system approaches the gapless point, $q_c$ shifts towards $q=π$ and the largest integrated intensity of the one-magnon mode is decreased. In the singlet-dimer phase, the one-magnon mode appears in $0 \leq q \leq q_c$. As the bond-alternation becomes strong, $q_c$ shifts towards $q=π$. In the antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic bond-alternation region with a strong ferromagnetic coupling, the lowest excited states form the lower edge of the multimagnon continuum in $0 \leq q \leq 0.2π$ and $0.8π\leq q \leq π$, and the one-magnon mode appears in $0.2π<q<0.8π$. The largest integrated intensity of the one-magnon mode is 93%, which is slightly smaller than that in the S=1 Haldane-gap system. We further discuss the dynamical structural factor in connection with the inelastic neutron-scattering experiments.
