Abstract

We study the behavior of fermion liquid defined on hexagonal and triangular lattices with short-range repulsion at half filling. In strong coupling limit the Mott-Hubbard phase state is present, the main peculiarity of insulator state is a doubled cell of the lattices. In the insulator state at half filling fermions with momenta kk and k+πk+\pi are coupled via the effective λ\lambda-field, the gap in the spectrum of quasi-particle excitations opens and the Mott phase transition is occured at a critical value of the one-site Hubbard repulsion~UcU_c. Uc=3.904U_c=3.904 and Uc=5.125U_c=5.125 are calculated values for hexagonal and triangular lattices, respectively. Depending on the magnitude of the short-range repulsion, the gap in the spectrum and the energy of the ground state are calculated. The proposed approach is universal; it is implemented for an arbitrary dimension and symmetry of the lattice for fermions models with short-range repulsion.
