Interaction-induced Fermi-surface renormalization in the t(1)-t(2) Hubbard model close to the Mott-Hubbard transition

摘要

We investigate the nature of the interaction-driven Mott-Hubbard transition of the half-filled t(1)-t(2) Hubbard model in one dimension, using a full-fledged variational Monte Carlo approach including a distance-dependent Jastrow factor and backflow correlations. We present data for the evolution of the magnetic properties across the Mott-Hubbard transition and on the commensurate to incommensurate transition in the insulating state. Analyzing renormalized excitation spectra, we find that the Fermi surface renormalizes to perfect nesting right at the Mott-Hubbard transition in the insulating state, with a first-order reorganization when crossing into the conducting state.
