Abstract

The one dimensional SU(2)SU(2) Kondo Lattice model is studied by Density Matrix Renormalization Group away from half-filling. We find signatures of a Heavy Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid (HTLL) phase, which describes one dimensional Heavy Fermions. We compute the wave-vector dependent charge and spin susceptibilities. Our results establish divergent charge and spin correlations at the large Fermi surface kF+π/2k_F+\pi/2, and its harmonics. We also find a signature of the hybridization gap at the small Fermi surface. We compare our N ⁣= ⁣2N\!=\!2 results to the large-NN Slave Bosons mean field theory of the SU(N)SU(N) Kondo Lattice model, and find crucial effects of the RKKY interactions on the generation of renormalized effective mass for the N ⁣= ⁣2N\!=\!2 model.
