Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Based on a positive semidefinite operator technique, exact ground states are deduced for the non-integrable conducting polymers possessing pentagon type of unit cell. The study is done in the presence of many-body spin-orbit interaction (SOI), local and nearest neighbor Coulomb repulsion (NNCR) and presence of external $E$ electric and $B$ magnetic fields, such that the effects of $B$ on both orbital and spin degrees of freedom is considered. The SOI, NNCR, and presented external field configurations presence in exact conducting polymer ground states is a novelty, so the development of the technique for the treatment possibility of such strongly correlated cases is presented in details. The deduced ground states show a broad spectrum of physical characteristics ranging from charge density waves, metal-insulator transitions, to interesting external field driven effects as e.g. modification possibility of a static charge distribution by a static external magnetic field., Comment: 47 pages, 2 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Flat bands are of extreme interest in a broad spectrum of fields since given by their high degeneracy, a small perturbation introduced in the system is able to push the ground state in the direction of an ordered phase of interest. Hence the flat band engineering in real materials attracts huge attention. However, manufacturing a flat band represents a difficult task because its appearance in a real system is connected to rigid mathematical conditions relating a part of Hamiltonian parameters. Consequently, whenever a flat band is desired to be manufactured, these Hamiltonian parameters must be tuned exactly to the values fixed by these rigid mathematical conditions. Here we demonstrate that taking the many-body spin-orbit interaction (SOI) into account -- which can be continuously tuned e.g. by external electric fields --, these rigid mathematical conditions can be substantially relaxed. On this line we show that a $\sim 20-30 \%$ variation in the Hamiltonian parameters rigidly fixed by the flat band conditions can also lead to flat bands in the same or in a bit displaced position on the energy axis. This percentage can even increase to $\sim 80 \%$ in the presence of an external magnetic field. The study is made in the case of conducting polymers. These systems are relevant not only because they have broad application possibilities, but also because they can be used to present the mathematical background of the flat band conditions in full generality, in a concise, clear and understandable manner applicable everywhere in itinerant systems.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The ferromagnetism of Au nanograins is analysed based on a two-dimensional itinerant lattice model with on-site Coulomb repulsion, many-body spin-orbit interactions, and holding two hybridized bands, one correlated and one uncorrelated. Using periodic boundary conditions in both directions, an exact ferromagnetic ground state is deduced for this non-integrable system by applying special techniques based on positive semidefinite operators.

Recently defect production was investigated during non-unitary dynamics due to non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. By ramping up the non-Hermitian coupling linearly in time through an exceptional point, defects are produced in much the same way as approaching a Hermitian critical point. A generalized Kibble--Zurek scaling accounted for the ensuing scaling of the defect density in terms of the speed of the drive and the corresponding critical exponents. Here we extend this setting by adding the recycling term and considering the full Lindbladian time evolution of the problem with quantum jumps. We find that by linearly ramping up the environmental coupling in time, and going beyond the steady-state solution of the Liouvillian, the defect density scales linearly with the speed of the drive for all cases. This scaling is unaffected by the presence of exceptional points of the Liouvillian, which can show up in the transient states. By using a variant of the adiabatic perturbation theory, the scaling of the defect density is determined exactly from a set of algebraic equations. Our study indicates the distinct sensitivity of the Lindbladian time evolution to exceptional points corresponding to steady states and transient states., Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
A 2D square, two-bands, strongly correlated and non-integrable system is analysed exactly in the presence of many-body spin-orbit interactions via the method of Positive Semidefinite Operators. The deduced exact ground states in the high concentration limit are strongly entangled, and given by the spin-orbit coupling are ferromagnetic and present an enhanced carrier mobility, which substantially differs for different spin projections. The described state emerges in a restricted parameter space region, which however is clearly accessible experimentally. The exact solutions are provided via the solution of a matching system of equations containing 74 coupled, non-linear and complex algebraic equations. In our knowledge, other exact results for 2D interacting systems with spin-orbit interactions are not present in the literature.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We analyze, in exact terms, multiband 2D itinerant correlated fermionic systems with many-body spin-orbit interactions, and in-plane external magnetic fields. Even if such systems with broad applicability in leading technologies are non-integrable, we set up an exact solution procedure for them, which is described in detail. Casting the Hamiltonian in positive semidefinite form, the technique leads to the ground state and also characterizes the low lying excitation spectrum.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Quantum Gases - Abstract
We investigate the light-matter interaction between the edge state of a 2D topological insulator and quantum electromagnetic field. The interaction originates from the Zeeman term between the spin of the edge electrons and the magnetic field, and also through the Peierls substition. The continuous U(1) symmetry of the system in the absence of the vector potential reduces into discrete time reversal symmetry in the presence of the vector potential. Due to light-matter interaction, a superradiant ground state emerges with spontaneously broken time reversal symmetry, accompanied by a net photocurrent along the edge, generated by the vector potential of the quantum light. The spectral function of the photon field reveals polariton continuum excitations above a threshold energy, corresponding to a Higgs mode and another low energy collective mode due to the phase fluctuations of the ground state. This collective mode is a zero energy Goldstone mode that arises from the broken continuous U(1) symmetry in the absence of the vector potential, and acquires finite a gap in the presence of the vector potential. The optical conductivity of the edge electrons is calculated using the random phase approximation by taking the fluctuation of the order parameter into account. It contains the collective modes as a Drude peak with renormalized effective mass, which moves to finite frequencies as the symmetry of the system is lowered by the inclusion of the vector potential., Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures

It is known that a system which exhibits a half filled lowest flat band and the localized one-particle Wannier states on the flat band satisfy the connectivity conditions, is always ferromagnetic. Without the connectivity conditions on the flat band, the system is non-magnetic. We show that this is not always true. The reason is connected to a peculiar behavior of the band situated just above the flat band., Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics - Abstract
We model conducting pentagon chains with a multi orbital Hubbard model and prove that well below half filling exact ferromagnetic ground states appear. The rigorous method we use is based on the transformation of original hamiltonian into positive semidefinite form. This technique is independent of the spatial dimesion and does not require integrability of the model. The obtained ferromagnetism is connected to dispersionless bands but in a much broader sense than flat band ferromagnetism requires, where on every site a Hubbard term is present. In our case only a small percentage of, even randomly distributed, sites are only interacting., Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics ,Condensed Matter - Soft Condensed Matter - Abstract
We consider a pentagon chain described by a Hubbard type of model considered under periodic boundary conditions. The system i) is placed in an external magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the cells, and ii) is in a site selective manner under the action of an external electric potential. In these conditions we show in a non-approximated manner that the physical properties of the system can be qualitatively changed. The changes cause first strong modifications of the band structure of the system created by the one-particle part of the Hamiltonian, and second, considerably redraw the emergence domains of ordered phases. We exemplify this by deducing ferromagnetic ground states in the presence of external fields in two different domains of the parameter space., Comment: 23 pages, 6 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Quantum Gases - Abstract
Time-periodic perturbations due to classical electromagnetic fields are useful to engineer the topological properties of matter using the Floquet theory. Here we investigate the effect of quantized electromagnetic fields by focusing on the quantized light-matter interaction on the edge state of a quantum spin-Hall insulator. A Dicke-type superradiant phase transition occurs at arbitrary weak coupling, the electronic spectrum acquires a finite gap and the resulting ground state manifold is topological with Chern number $\pm 1$. When the total number of excitations is conserved, a photocurrent is generated along the edge, being pseudo-quantized as $\omega\ln(1/\omega)$ in the low frequency limit, and decaying as $1/\omega$ for high frequencies with $\omega$ the photon frequency. The photon spectral function exhibits a clean Goldstone mode, a Higgs like collective mode at the optical gap and the polariton continuum., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, revised version

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The compound SmB$_6$ is a Kondo Insulator, where the lowest-energy bulk electronic excitations are spin excitons. It also has surface states that are subjected to strong spin-orbit coupling. It has been suggested that SmB$_6$ is also a topological insulator. Here we show that, despite the absence of time-reversal symmetry breaking and the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling, the chiral spin texture of the Weyl cone is not completely protected. In particular, we show that the spin-exciton mediated scattering produces features in the surface electronic spectrum at energies separated from the surface Fermi energy by the spin-exciton energy. Despite the features being far removed from the surface Fermi energy, they are extremely temperature dependent. The temperature variation occurs over a characteristic scale determined by the dispersion of the spin exciton. The structures may be observed by electron spectroscopy at low temperatures., Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics - Abstract
Working in a subspace with dimensionality much smaller than the dimension of the full Hilbert space, we deduce exact 4-particle ground states in 2D samples containing hexagonal repeat units and described by Hubbard type of models. The procedure identifies first a small subspace ${\cal{S}}$ in which the ground state $|\Psi_g\rangle$ is placed, than deduces $|\Psi_g\rangle$ by exact diagonalization in ${\cal{S}}$. The small subspace is obtained by the repeated application of the Hamiltonian $\hat H$ on a carefully chosen starting wave vector describing the most interacting particle configuration, and the wave vectors resulting from the application of $\hat H$, till the obtained system of equations closes in itself. The procedure which can be applied in principle at fixed but arbitrary system size and number of particles, is interesting by its own since provides exact information for the numerical approximation techniques which use a similar strategy, but apply non-complete basis for ${\cal{S}}$. The diagonalization inside ${\cal{S}}$ provides an incomplete image about the low lying part of the excitation spectrum, but provides the exact $|\Psi_g\rangle$. Once the exact ground state is obtained, its properties can be easily analyzed. The $|\Psi_g\rangle$ is found always as a singlet state whose energy, interestingly, saturates in the $U \to \infty$ limit. The unapproximated results show that the emergence probabilities of different particle configurations in the ground state present "Zittern" (trembling) characteristics which are absent in 2D square Hubbard systems. Consequently, the manifestation of the local Coulomb repulsion in 2D square and honeycomb types of systems presents differences, which can be a real source in the differences in the many-body behavior., Comment: 35 pages, 21 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics ,Condensed Matter - Soft Condensed Matter - Abstract
For a general class of conducting polymers with arbitrary large unit cell and different on-site Coulomb repulsion values on different type of sites, I demonstrate in exact terms the emergence possibility of an upper, interaction created "effective" flat band. This last appears as a consequence of a kinetic energy quench accompanied by a strong interaction energy decrease, and leads to a non-saturated ferromagnetic state. This ordered state clearly differs from the known flat-band ferromagnetism. This is because it emerges in a system without bare flat bands, requires inhomogeneous on-site Coulomb repulsions values, and possesses non-zero lower interaction limits at the emergence of the ordered phase., Comment: 22 pages, 3 figures

Exact static nondegenerate stripe and checkerboard ground states are obtained in a two-dimensional generalized periodic Anderson model, for a broad concentration range below quarter filling. The random droplet states, also present in the degenerate ground state, are eliminated by extending the Hamiltonian with terms of different physical origin such as dimerization, periodic charge displacements, density waves, or distorsion lines., Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics ,Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
We construct a class of exact ground states for correlated electrons on pentagon chains in the high density region and discuss their physical properties. In this procedure the Hamiltonian is first cast in a positive semidefinite form using composite operators as a linear combination of creation operators acting on the sites of finite blocks. In the same step, the interaction is also transformed to obtain terms which require for their minimum eigenvalue zero at least one electron on each site. The transformed Hamiltonian matches the original Hamiltonian through a nonlinear system of equations whose solutions place the deduced ground states in restricted regions of the parameter space. In the second step, nonlocal product wave functions in position space are constructed. They are proven to be unique ground states which describe non-saturated ferromagnetic and correlated half metallic states. These solutions emerge when the strength of the Hubbard interaction $U_i$ is site dependent inside the unit cell. In the deduced phases, the interactions tune the bare dispersive band structure such to develop an effective upper flat band. We show that this band flattening effect emerges for a broader class of chains and is not restricted to pentagon chains. For the characterization of the deduced solutions, uniqueness proofs, exact ground state expectation values for long-range hopping amplitudes and correlation functions are also calculated. The study of physical reasons which lead to the appearance of ferromagnetism has revealed a new mechanism for the emergence of an ordered phase, described here in details (because of lack of space see the continuation in the paper)., Comment: 75 pages, 9 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Using a positive semidefinite operator technique one deduces exact ground states for a zig-zag hexagon chain described by a non-integrable Hubbard model with on-site repulsion. Flat bands are not present in the bare band structure, and the operators $\hat B^{\dagger}_{\mu,\sigma}$ introducing the electrons into the ground state, are all extended operators and confined in the quasi 1D chain structure of the system. Consequently, increasing the number of carriers, the $\hat B^{\dagger}_{\mu,\sigma}$ operators become connected i.e. touch each other on several lattice sites. Hence the spin projection of the carriers becomes correlated in order to minimize the ground state energy by reducing as much as possible the double occupancy leading to a ferromagnetic ground state. This result demonstrates in exact terms in a many-body frame that the conjecture made at two-particle level by G. Brocks et al. [Phys.Rev.Lett.93,146405,(2004)] that the Coulomb interaction is expected to stabilize correlated magnetic ground states in acenes is clearly viable, and opens new directions in the search for routes in obtaining organic ferromagnetism. Due to the itinerant nature of the obtained ferromagnetic ground state, the systems under discussion may have also direct application possibilities in spintronics., Comment: 28 pages, 7 figures.

We study a nonuniversal contribution to the dephasing rate of conduction electrons due to local vibrational modes. The inelastic scattering rate is strongly influenced by multiphonon excitations, exhibiting oscillatory behaviour. For higher frequencies, it saturates to a finite, coupling dependent value. In the strong coupling limit, the phonon is almost completely softened, and the inelastic cross section reaches its maximal value. This represents a magnetic field insensitive contribution to the dephasing time in mesoscopic systems, in addition to magnetic impurities., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We construct exact ground states of interacting electrons on triangle and diamond Hubbard chains. The construction requires (i) a rewriting of the Hamiltonian into positive semidefinite form, (ii) the construction of a many-electron ground state of this Hamiltonian, and (iii) the proof of the uniqueness of the ground state. This approach works in any dimension, requires no integrability of the model, and only demands sufficiently many microscopic parameters in the Hamiltonian which have to fulfill certain relations. The scheme is first employed to construct exact ground state for the diamond Hubbard chain in a magnetic field. These ground states are found to exhibit a wide range of properties such as flat-band ferromagnetism and correlation induced metallic, half-metallic or insulating behavior, which can be tuned by changing the magnetic flux, local potentials, or electron density. Detailed proofs of the uniqueness of the ground states are presented. By the same technique exact ground states are constructed for triangle Hubbard chains and a one-dimensional periodic Anderson model with nearest-neighbor hybridization. They permit direct comparison with results obtained by variational techniques for f-electron ferromagnetism due to a flat band in CeRh3B2., Comment: 21 pages, 9 figures.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
A comprehensive theory of electron spin resonance (ESR) for a Luttinger liquid (LL) state of correlated metals is presented. The ESR measurables such as the signal intensity and the line-width are calculated in the framework of Luttinger liquid theory with broken spin rotational symmetry as a function of magnetic field and temperature. We obtain a significant temperature dependent homogeneous line-broadening which is related to the spin symmetry breaking and the electron-electron interaction. The result crosses over smoothly to the ESR of itinerant electrons in the non-interacting limit. These findings explain the absence of the long-sought ESR signal of itinerant electrons in single-wall carbon nanotubes when considering realistic experimental conditions., Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Disordered Systems and Neural Networks - Abstract
The genuine physical reasons explaining the delocalization effect of the Hubbard repulsion U are analyzed. First it is shown that always when this effect is observed, U acts on the background of a macroscopic degeneracy present in a multiband type of system. After this step I demonstrate that acting in such conditions, by strongly diminishing the double occupancy, U spreads out the contributions in the ground state wave function, hence strongly increases the one-particle localization length, consequently extends the one-particle behavior producing conditions for a delocalization effect. To be valuable, the reported results are presented in exact terms, being based on the first exact ground states deduced at half filling in two dimensions for a prototype two band system, the generic periodic Anderson model at finite value of the interaction., Comment: 23 pages, 8 figures.

Here, a comprehensive theory for the magnetic field and temperature dependent NMR 13C spin-lattice relaxation is given in the framework of the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. The low temperature properties are governed by a gapped relaxation due to a spin gap (~ 30K), which crosses over smoothly to the Luttinger liquid behaviour with increasing temperature., Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, 1 table

We present exact explicit analytical results describing the exact ground state of four electrons in a two dimensional square Hubbard cluster containing 16 sites taken with periodic boundary conditions. The presented procedure, which works for arbitrary even particle number and lattice sites, is based on explicitly given symmetry adapted base vectors constructed in r-space. The Hamiltonian acting on these states generates a closed system of 85 linear equations providing by its minimum eigenvalue the exact ground state of the system. The presented results, described with the aim to generate further creative developments, not only show how the ground state can be exactly obtained and what kind of contributions enter in its construction, but emphasize further characteristics of the spectrum. On this line i) possible explications are found regarding why weak coupling expansions often provide a good approximation for the Hubbard model at intermediate couplings, or ii) explicitly given low lying energy states of the kinetic energy, avoiding double occupancy, suggest new roots for pairing mechanism attracting decrease in the kinetic energy, as emphasized by kinetic energy driven superconductivity theories., Comment: 37 pages, 18 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics - Abstract
The exact ground state of four electrons in an arbitrary large two leg Hubbard ladder is deduced from nine analytic and explicit linear equations. The used procedure is described, and the properties of the ground state are analyzed. The method is based on the construction in r-space of the different type of orthogonal basis wave vectors which span the subspace of the Hilbert space containing the ground state. In order to do this, we start from the possible microconfigurations of the four particles within the system. These microconfigurations are then rotated, translated and spin-reversed in order to build up the basis vectors of the problem. A closed system of nine analytic linear equations is obtained whose secular equation, by its minimum energy solution, provides the ground state energy and the ground state wave function of the model., Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We examine the spinless one-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model (FKM) below half-filling, addressing both the binary alloy and valence transition interpretations of the model. Using a non-perturbative technique, we derive an effective Hamiltonian for the occupation of the localized orbitals, providing a comprehensive description of charge order in the FKM. In particular, we uncover the contradictory ordering roles of the forward-scattering and backscattering itinerant electrons: the latter are responsible for the crystalline phases, while the former produces the phase separation. We find an Ising model describes the transition between the phase separated state and the crystalline phases; for weak-coupling we present the critical line equation, finding excellent agreement with numerical results. We consider several extensions of the FKM that preserve the classical nature of the localized states. We also investigate a parallel between the FKM and the Kondo lattice model, suggesting a close relationship based upon the similar orthogonality catastrophe physics of the associated single-impurity models., Comment: 39 pages, 6 figures

In the case of a two-leg Hubbard ladder we present a procedure which allows the exact deduction of the ground state for the four particle problem in arbitrary large lattice system, in a tractable manner, which involves only a reduced Hilbert space region containing the ground state. In the presented case, the method leads to nine analytic, linear, and coupled equations providing the ground state. The procedure which is applicable to few particle problems and other systems as well is based on an r-space representation of the wave functions and construction of symmetry adapted orthogonal basis wave vectors describing the Hilbert space region containing the ground state. Once the ground state is deduced, a complete quantum mechanical characterization of the studied state can be given. Since the analytic structure of the ground state becomes visible during the use of the method, its importance is not reduced only to the understanding of theoretical aspects connected to exact descriptions or potential numerical approximation scheme developments, but is relevant as well for a large number of potential technological application possibilities placed between nano-devices and quantum calculations, where the few particle behavior and deep understanding are important key aspects to know., Comment: 19 pages, 5 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We use a novel approach to analyze the one dimensional spinless Falicov-Kimball model. We derive a simple effective model for the occupation of the localized orbitals which clearly reveals the origin of the known ordering. Our study is extended to a quantum model with hybridization between the localized and itinerant states; we find a crossover between the well-known weak- and strong-coupling behaviour. The existence of electronic polarons at intermediate coupling is confirmed. A phase diagram is presented and discussed in detail., Comment: RevTex, 10 pages, 1 figure

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We present a Hartree-Fock study of the Falicov-Kimball model extended by both on-site and non-local hybridization. We examine the interplay between excitonic effects and the charge-density wave (CDW) instability known to exist at zero hybridization. It is found that the CDW state remains stable in the presence of finite hybridization; for on-site hybridization the Coulomb interaction nevertheless strongly enhances the excitonic average above its value in the noninteracting system. In contrast, for non-local hybridization, we observe no such enhancement of the excitonic average or a spontaneous on-site hybridization potential. Instead, we find only a significant suppression of the excitonic correlations in the CDW state. A phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau analysis is also provided to understand the interplay., Comment: RevTex, 5 pages, 4 figures; expanded and corrected, typos added, references added

35. Exact Ground States of the Periodic Anderson Model in D=3 Dimensions

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We construct a class of exact ground states of three-dimensional periodic Anderson models (PAMs) -- including the conventional PAM -- on regular Bravais lattices at and above 3/4 filling, and discuss their physical properties. In general, the f electrons can have a (weak) dispersion, and the hopping and the non-local hybridization of the d and f electrons extend over the unit cell. The construction is performed in two steps. First the Hamiltonian is cast into positive semi-definite form using composite operators in combination with coupled non-linear matching conditions. This may be achieved in several ways, thus leading to solutions in different regions of the phase diagram. In a second step, a non-local product wave function in position space is constructed which allows one to identify various stability regions corresponding to insulating and conducting states. The compressibility of the insulating state is shown to diverge at the boundary of its stability regime. The metallic phase is a non-Fermi liquid with one dispersing and one flat band. This state is also an exact ground state of the conventional PAM and has the following properties: (i) it is non-magnetic with spin-spin correlations disappearing in the thermodynamic limit, (ii) density-density correlations are short-ranged, and (iii) the momentum distributions of the interacting electrons are analytic functions, i.e., have no discontinuities even in their derivatives. The stability regions of the ground states extend through a large region of parameter space, e.g., from weak to strong on-site interaction U. Exact itinerant, ferromagnetic ground states are found at and below 1/4 filling., Comment: 47 pages, 10 eps figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The Kondo lattice model introduced in 1977 describes a lattice of localized magnetic moments interacting with a sea of conduction electrons. It is one of the most important canonical models in the study of a class of rare earth compounds, called heavy fermion systems, and as such has been studied intensively by a wide variety of techniques for more than a quarter of a century. This review focuses on the one dimensional case at partial band filling, in which the number of conduction electrons is less than the number of localized moments. The theoretical understanding, based on the bosonized solution, of the conventional Kondo lattice model is presented in great detail. This review divides naturally into two parts, the first relating to the description of the formalism, and the second to its application. After an all-inclusive description of the bosonization technique, the bosonized form of the Kondo lattice hamiltonian is constructed in detail. Next the double-exchange ordering, Kondo singlet formation, the RKKY interaction and spin polaron formation are described comprehensively. An in-depth analysis of the phase diagram follows, with special emphasis on the destruction of the ferromagnetic phase by spin-flip disorder scattering, and of recent numerical results. The results are shown to hold for both antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic Kondo lattice. The general exposition is pedagogic in tone., Comment: Review, 258 pages, 19 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We examine the one-dimensional spinless Falicov-Kimball model extended by a hybridization potential between the localized and itinerant electron states. Below half-filling we find a crossover from a mixed-valence metal to an integer-valence phase separated state with increasing on-site Coulomb repulsion. This crossover regime is characterized by local competition between the strong- and weak-coupling behaviour, manifested by the formation of an electronic polaron liquid. We identify this intermediate-coupling regime as a charge-analogy of the Griffiths phase; a phase diagram is presented and discussed in detail., Comment: RevTex, 10 pages, 1 figure; revised discussion

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The magnetic properties of a system of coexisting localized spins and conduction electrons are investigated within an extended version of the one dimensional Kondo lattice model in which effects stemming from the electron-lattice and on-site Coulomb interactions are explicitly included. After bosonizing the conduction electrons, is it observed that intrinsic inhomogeneities with the statistical scaling properties of a Griffiths phase appear, and determine the spin structure of the localized impurities. The appearance of the inhomogeneities is enhanced by appropriate phonons and acts destructively on the spin ordering. The inhomogeneities appear on well defined length scales and can be compared to the formation of intrinsic mesoscopic metastable patterns which are found in two-fluid phenomenologies., Comment: RevTex, 24 pages, 6 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Superconductivity - Abstract
We report for the first time exact ground-states deduced for the D=2 dimensional generic periodic Anderson model at finite $U$, the Hamiltonian of the model not containing direct hopping terms for $f$-electrons $(t^f = 0)$. The deduced itinerant phase presents non-Fermi liquid properties in the normal phase, emerges for real hybridization matrix elements, and not requires anisotropic unit cell. In order to deduce these results, the plaquette operator procedure has been generalised to a block operator technique which uses blocks higher than an unit cell and contains $f$-operator contributions acting only on a single central site of the block., Comment: 21 pages, 3 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons ,Condensed Matter - Superconductivity - Abstract
The derivation procedure of exact ground-states for the periodic Anderson model (PAM) in restricted regions of the parameter space and D=2 dimensions using plaquette operators is presented in detail. Using this procedure, we are reporting for the first time exact ground-states for PAM in 2D and finite value of the interaction, whose presence do not require the next to nearest neighbor extension terms in the Hamiltonian. In order to do this, a completely new type of plaquette operator is introduced for PAM, based on which a new localized phase is deduced whose physical properties are analyzed in detail. The obtained results provide exact theoretical data which can be used for the understanding of system properties leading to metal-insulator transitions, strongly debated in recent publications in the frame of PAM. In the described case, the lost of the localization character is connected to the break-down of the long-range density-density correlations rather than Kondo physics., Comment: 34 pages, 5 figures

We report exact multielectronic ground-states dependent on electron concentration for quantum mechanical two-dimensional disordered two-band type many body models in the presence of disordered hoppings and disordered repulsive finite Hubbard interactions, in fixed lattice topology considered provided by Bravais lattices. The obtained ground-states loose their eigenfunction character for independent electron approximation, perturbatively are not connected to the non-interacting but disordered case, and describe a localization-delocalization transition driven by the electron concentration, being highly degenerated and paramagnetic., Comment: Accepted for publication in Phys.

An effective hamiltonian is derived exactly for the one-dimensional periodic Anderson model via a canonical transformation. The canonical transformation has been calculated up to infinite order, thus an exact transformation was performed in the strict mathematical sense.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The one dimensional dilute Kondo lattice model is investigated by means of bosonization for different dilution patterns of the array of impurity spins. The physical picture is very different if a commensurate or incommensurate doping of the impurity spins is considered. For the commensurate case, the obtained phase diagram is verified using a non-Abelian density-matrix renormalization-group algorithm. The paramagnetic phase widens at the expense of the ferromagnetic phase as the $f$-spins are diluted. For the incommensurate case, antiferromagnetism is found at low doping, which distinguishes the dilute Kondo lattice model from the standard Kondo lattice model., Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures

We present a class of exact ground states of a three-dimensional periodic Anderson model at 3/4 filling. Hopping and hybridization of d and f electrons extend over the unit cell of a general Bravais lattice. Employing novel composite operators combined with 55 matching conditions the Hamiltonian is cast into positive semidefinite form. A product wave function in position space allows one to identify stability regions of an insulating and a conducting ground state. The metallic phase is a non-Fermi liquid with one dispersing and one flat band., Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Dukelsky, Mart\'in-Delgado, Nishino and Sierra (Europhys. Lett., 43, 457 (1998) - hereafter referred to as DMNS) investigated the matrix product method (MPM), comparing it with the infinite-size density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). For equivalent basis size, the MPM produces an improved variational energy over that produced by DMRG and, unlike DMRG, produces a translationally-invariant wavefunction. The DMRG results presented were significantly worse than the MPM, caused by a shallow bound state appearing at the join of the two DMRG blocks. They also suggested that the DMRG results can be improved by using an alternate superblock construction $[B] \bullet [B]$ for the last few steps of the calculation. In this comment, we show that the DMRG results presented by DMNS are in error and the artificial bound state produced by the standard superblock configuration is very small even for $m=2$ states kept. In addition, we calculate explicitly the energy and wavefunction for the $[B] \bullet [B]$ superblock structure and verify that the energy coincides with that of the MPM, as conjectured by S. Ostlund and S. Rommer (Phys. Rev. Lett., 75, 3537 (1995))., Comment: 2 pages, 1 eps figure included. eps.cls included

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Using a non-Abelian density matrix renormalization group method we determine the phase diagram of the Kondo lattice model in one dimension, by directly measuring the magnetization of the ground-state. This allowed us to discover a second ferromagnetic phase missed in previous approaches. The phase transitions are found to be continuous. The spin-spin correlation function is studied in detail, and we determine in which regions the large and small Fermi surfaces dominate. The importance of double-exchange ordering and its competition with Kondo singlet formation is emphasized in understanding the complexity of the model., Comment: Revtex, 4 pages, 4 eps figures embedded

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We are reporting a new non-Fermi liquid type normal phase that has a well defined Fermi energy, but without showing any non-regularity in the momentum distribution function in the whole momentum space, the sharp Fermi momentum concept being undefinable. The system contains a natural built in gap that is visible in the physical properties of the system at nonzero temperatures. The presence of a flat band in multiband interacting Fermi systems with more than half filling is the key feature leading to such a ground state, which is not restricted to one spatial dimension and emerges in the proximity of an insulating phase., Comment: 13 pages, 0 figures, Latex in .gz file, accepted for publication in Jour. of Phys.

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Finite temperature properties of a non-Fermi liquid system is one of the most challenging probelms in current understanding of strongly correlated electron systems. The paradigmatic arena for studying non-Fermi liquids is in one dimension, where the concept of a Luttinger liquid has arisen. The existence of a critical point at zero temperature in one dimensional systems, and the fact that experiments are all undertaken at finite temperature, implies a need for these one dimensional systems to be examined at finite temperature. Accordingly, we extended the well-known bosonization method of one dimensional electron systems to finite temperatures. We have used this new bosonization method to calculate finite temperature asymptotic correlation functions for linear fermions, the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, and the Hubbard model., Comment: REVTex, 48 pages

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Presenting exact solutions for the two dimensional periodic Anderson model with finite and nonzero on-site interaction U>0, we are describing a rigorous non-Fermi liquid phase in normal phase and 2D. This new state emerges in multi-band interacting Fermi systems above half filling, being generated by a flat band effect. The momentum distribution function n_k together with its derivatives of any order is continuous. The state possesses a well defined Fermi energy, but the Fermi momentum concept is not definable, so the Fermi surface in k-space is missing. The state emerges in the vicinity of a Mott insulating phase when lattice distortions are present, is highly degenerated and paramagnetic. A gap is present at high U in the density of low lying excitations. During low lying excitations, quasi-particles are not created above the Fermi level, only the number of particles at the Fermi energy increases., Comment: 46 pages, 2 ps files, to be published in Phys.
