Splitting of the lower subband of Hubbard fermions in the Shubin-Vonsowsky model under the influence of strong intersite correlations

摘要

The diagram technique for Hubbard operators is used to investigate the influence of intersite Coulomb interactions on the energy structure and Cooper instability of strongly correlated fermions. Allowance for intersite correlations in doped Mott-Hubbard insulators is shown to lead to a splitting of the lower subband of Hubbard fermions and to the formation of a band of fluctuation states as soon as the intersite interaction energy becomes comparable to or exceeds the mean kinetic energy. The spectral intensity of the splitoff band is proportional to the root-mean-square fluctuation of the occupation numbers and increases with doping level. The predicted effect changes significantly the structure of the density of electronic states. This leads to a renormalization of the pole of the scattering amplitude in the Cooper channel and manifests itself as a nonuniform (in electron concentration) modification of the dependence of the critical superconducting transition temperature.
