We investigate the spectral properties of a hole moving in a two-dimensional Hubbard model for strongly correlated t_2g electrons. Although superexchange interactions are Ising-like, a quasi-one-dimensional coherent hole motion arises due…
We present a numerical treatment of a spin-orbital polaron model for Na_xCoO_2 at small hole concentration (0.7 < x < 1). We demonstrate how the polarons account for the peculiar magnetic properties of this layered compound: They explain…
We investigate doping of a two-orbital chain with mobile $S=1/2$ fermions as a valid model for $\rm Y_{2-x}Ca_xBaNiO_5$. The S=1 spins are stabilized by strong, ferromagnetic (fm) Hund's rule couplings. We calculate correlation functions…

Using an effective potential method we examine binary black holes where the individual holes carry spin. We trace out sequences of quasi-circular orbits and locate the innermost stable circular orbit as a function of spin. At large…
A one-dimensional model of coupled spin-1/2 spins and pseudospin-1/2 orbitals with nearest-neighbor interaction is rigorously shown to exhibit spin-orbital separation by means of a non-local unitary transformation. On an open chain, this…
We incorporate spin-orbit coupling (SOC) into effective Kugel-Khomskii models for the $n=1$ and $n=2$ members of the Ruddlesden-Popper series Sr$_{n+1}$Cr$_n$O$_{3n+1}$. These model contain interacting spins 1 and pseudospins 1/2 at each…
The optical conductivity of the CuO$_3$-chains, a subsystem of the 1-2-3 materials, is dominated by a broad peak in the mid-infrared ($\omega \approx 0.2$eV), and a slowly falling high-frequency tail. The 1D $t$-$J$-model is proposed as the…
In this work, we study the t-J model using a two-pole approximation within the composite operator method. We choose a basis of two composite operators -- the constrained electrons and their spin-fluctuation dressing -- and approximate their…
Recent photoemission experiments have measured E vs. k for a single hole propa- gating in antiferromagnetically aligned Sr_2CuO_2Cl_2. Comparisons with (i) the t - t' - J model, for which the carrier is a spinless vacancy, and (ii) a…

We study the one-dimensional t-J-J'-model in the limit of small hole doping $x$ and small $J/t$, $J'/t$. Special emphasis is put on the regime $J'/J \approx .5$ where a spin gap is present at small doping and the undoped spin chain is…
Using RPA results, mean field theory, and refined data for the polarization vectors we determine the coupling constants of the four Peierls-active phonon modes to the spin chains of CuGeO_3. We then derive the values of the coupling of the…
