Metallic ferromagnetism in the Hubbard model: A rigorous example

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2015-06-25 v2 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

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 bands. In the limit where the band gap and the Coulomb repulsion become infinite, we prove that the ground states are completely ferromagnetic and at the same time conducting.
