Falicov-Kimball Models: A Partial Review of the Ground States Problem
نویسنده
چکیده
In this review we present a biased review of the ground state properties of the Falicov-Kimball models in 1, 2 and ∞ dimensions, considering either fermions or hard core bosons. In particular we want to show the very rich structure that these models exhibit, and to point out the analogies and differences associated with the statistic of the quantum particles and the nature of the lattice (bipartite or not). The flux phase problem is also discussed.

The Falicov-Kimball model : a review of exact results and extensions
The Falicov-Kimball model is a simplified version of the the Hubbard model in which only one type of electron (e.g. spin down) is allowed to hop. It describes in particular a system of spinless quantum particles interacting with classical particles (Ising spins). In this review we present the progress which has been accomplished in the last decade concerning this model, with an emphasis on rigo...
متن کاملPhase separation in the binary-alloy problem: The one-dimensional spinless Falicov-Kimball model.
The ground states of the one-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model are investigated in the small-coupling limit, using nearly degenerate perturbation theory. For rational electron and ion densities, respectively, equal to p/q , pi /q , with p relatively prime to q and pi /q close enough to 1 2, we find that in the ground state the ion configuration has a period q . The situation is analogous to the...
متن کاملMolecule Formation and the Farey Tree in the One-Dimensional Falicov-Kimball Model
The ground state configurations of the one–dimensional Falicov–Kimball model are studied exactly with numerical calculations revealing unexpected effects for small interaction strength. In neutral systems we observe molecular formation, phase separation and changes in the conducting properties; while in non–neutral systems the phase diagram exhibits Farey tree order (Aubry sequence) and a devil...
متن کاملA ug 1 99 6 Repulsive particles on a two - dimensional lattice
The problem of finding the minimum-energy configuration of particles on a lattice, subject to a generic short-ranged repulsive interaction, is studied analytically. The study is relevant to charge ordered states of interacting fermions, as described by the spinless Falicov–Kimball model. For a range of particle density including the half-filled case, it is shown that the minimum-energy states c...
متن کاملMetal-insulator transitions in the Falicov-Kimball model with disorder
The ground-state phase diagrams of the Falicov-Kimball model with local disorder are derived within the dynamical mean-field theory and using the geometrically averaged s“typical”d local density of states. Correlated metal, Mott insulator, and Anderson insulator phases are identified. The metal-insulator transitions are found to be continuous. The interaction and disorder compete with each othe...
