We consider a Hubbard model on a square lattice with an additional interaction, $W$, which depends upon the square of a near-neighbor hopping. At half-filling and a constant value of the Hubbard repulsion, increasing the strength of the…

We apply the slave-boson approach of Kotliar and Ruckenstein to the two-band Hubbard model with an Ising like Hund's rule coupling and bands of different widths. On the mean-field level of this approach we investigate the Mott transition…
Drude weight ($D$) is a useful measure to distinguish a metal from an insulator. However, $D$ has not been justifiably estimated by the variation theory for long, since Millis and Coppersmith [Phys. Rev. B 43 (1991) 13770] pointed out that…

The ground state of the Hubbard model is studied within the single-site approximation (SSA) and beyond the SSA. Within the SSA, the ground state is a typical Mott insulator at the critical point n=1 and U/W=+infty, with n being the electron…
The self-energy-functional approach proposed recently is applied to the single-band Hubbard model at half-filling to study the Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transition within the most simple but non-trivial approximation. This leads to a…
