The Gutzwiller wave function for a strongly correlated model can, if supplemented with a long-range Jastrow factor, provide a proper variational description of Mott insulators, so far unavailable. We demonstrate this concept in the…
We present a detailed numerical study of the Hubbard-Holstein model in one dimension at half filling, including full finite-frequency quantum phonons. At half filling, the effects of the electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions…
Strong correlation effects, which are often associated to the approach to a Mott insulating state, in some cases may be observed even far from half-filling. This typically happens whenever the inter-site Coulomb repulsion induces a tendency…
