We demonstrate in a simple model the surprising result that turning on an on-site Coulomb interaction U in a doped band insulator leads to the formation of a half-metallic state. In the undoped system, we show that increasing U leads to a…

The Mott transition is a paradigmatic phenomenon where Coulomb interactions between electrons drive a metal-insulator phase transition. It is extensively studied within the Hubbard model, where a quantum critical transition occurs at a…
We introduce two dimensional fermionic band models with two orbitals per lattice site, or one spinful orbital, and which have a non-zero topological Chern number that can be changed by varying the ratio of hopping parameters. A…

We show that the Mott transition occurring in bosonic Hubbard models can be successfully described by a simple variational wave function that contains all important long-wavelength correlations. Within this approach, a smooth…
The interaction-driven insulator-to-metal transition has been reported in the ionic Hubbard model (IHM) for moderate interaction $U$, while its metallic phase only occupies a narrow region in the phase diagram. To explore the enlargement of…
