Ground-state phase diagram of a half-filled one-dimensional extended Hubbard model
Abstract
The density-matrix renormalization group is used to study the phase diagram of the one-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model with on-site (U) and nearest-neighbor (V) repulsion, and hopping t. A critical line Vc(U) approximately equal to U/2 separates a Mott insulating phase from a charge-density-wave phase. The formation of bound charge excitations for V > 2t changes the phase transition from continuous to first order at a tricritical point Ut = 3.7t, Vt=2t. A frustrating effective antiferromagnetic spin coupling induces a bond-order-wave phase on the critical line Vc(U) for Ut < U < 7-8 t.
