We construct a new effective two-dimensional Hubbard model by taking the different electron occupancy on site into account. The mean field state of the new Hamiltonian gives rise to the gossamer superconducting state proposed by Laughlin…
Around a metal-to-insulator transition driven by repulsive interaction (Mott transition) the single particle excitations and the collective excitations are equally important. Here we present results for the generic susceptibilities at zero…
We construct a multi-band Hubbard model on the lattice obtained by "decorating" a closely packed $d$-dimensional lattice $\mathcal{M}$ (such as the triangular lattice) where $d\ge2$. We take the limits in which the Coulomb interaction and…
We present the first rigorous examples of non-singular Hubbard models which exhibit ferromagnetism at zero temperature. The models are defined in arbitrary dimensions, and are characterized by finite-ranged hoppings, dispersive bands, and…
An unusual metallic phase is proven to develop in the one dimensional ionic Hubbard model, at half-filling and zero magnetization, at intermediate electron-electron repulsion $U$ when second neighbors hopping is allowed and tuned close to a…
Partially-projected Gutzwiller variational wavefunctions are used to describe the ground state of disordered interacting systems of fermions. We compare several different variational ground states with the exact ground state for disordered…
In this work I investigate a two-band Hubbard model using the Gutzwiller wavefunction. The tight-binding part of the model was constructed to have a gapless spin-density wave state which leads to Dirac points in the bandstructure, a common…
Common density-matrix functionals, the M\"uller and the power functional, have been benchmarked for the half-filled Hubbard dimer, which allows to model the bond dissociation problem and the transition from the weakly to the strongly…
The Hubbard model on the kagom\'e lattice has highly degenerate ground states (the flat lowest band) in the corresponding single-electron problem and exhibits the so-called flat-band ferromagnetism in the many-electron ground states as was…
The ghost-Gutzwiller variational wavefunction within the Gutzwiller approximation is shown to stabilize a genuine paramagnetic Mott insulator in the half-filled single-band Hubbard model. This phase hosts quasiparticles that are crucial to…
The ground states of Na$_x$CoO$_2$ ($0.0<x<1.0$) is studied by the LDA+Gutzwiller approach, where charge transfer and orbital fluctuations are all self-consistently treated {\it ab-initio}. In contrast to previous studies, which are…
We present the first rigorous example of the Hubbard model in any dimensions which exhibits metallic ferromagnetism. The model is a genuine Hubbard model with short-range hopping and on-site Coulomb repulsion, and has multi single-electron…
We investigate the ground state properties of a bosonic Harper-Hofstadter model with local interactions on a finite cylindrical lattice with filling fraction $\nu=1/2$. We find that our system supports topologically ordered states by…
We construct a set of exact ground states with a localized ferromagnetic domain wall and with an extended spiral structure in a deformed flat-band Hubbard model in arbitrary dimensions. We show the uniqueness of the ground state for the…
We consider nearly-flat-band Hubbard models of a ferromagnet, that is the models that are weak perturbations of those flat-band Hubbard models whose ground state is ferromagnetic for any nonzero strength $U$ of the Hubbard repulsion. In…
We present a model example of a quantum critical behavior of renormalized single-particle Wannier function composed of Slater s-orbitals and represented in an adjustable Gaussian STO-7G basis, which is calculated for cubic lattices in the…
Multi-band Gutzwiller-correlated wave functions reconcile the contrasting concepts of itinerant band electrons versus electrons localized in partially filled atomic shells. The approximate evaluation of these variational ground states…
We investigate nonmagnetic metal-insulator transition in the 1/5-depleted square lattice Hubbard model at half-filling within the 8-site cellular dynamical mean field theory. We find that a metal-insulator transition without any signatures…
Ferromagnetic Nickel is the most celebrated iron group metal with pronounced discrepancies between the experimental electronic properties and predictions of density functional theories. In this work, we show in detail that the recently…
We construct a Hubbard model with a nearly flat band whose quantum geometry can be tuned independently of the energy dispersion and the Coulomb interaction. We show that, when the nearly flat band is half-filled, the exact ground state of…
