Reactive Hall response

Abstract

The zero temperature Hall constant R_H, described by reactive (nondissipative) conductivities, is analyzed within linear response theory. It is found that in a certain limit, R_H is directly related to the density dependence of the Drude weight implying a simple picture for the change of sign of charge carriers in the vicinity of a Mott-Hubbard transition. This novel formulation is applied to the calculation of R_H in quasi-one dimensional and ladder prototype interacting electron systems.
