Stripes on a 6-Leg Hubbard Ladder

Abstract

While DMRG calculations find stripes on doped n-leg t-J ladders, little is known about the possible formation of stripes on n-leg Hubbard ladders. Here we report results for a 7x6 Hubbard model with 4 holes. We find that a stripe forms for values of U/t ranging from 6 to 20. For U/t ~ 3-4, the system exhibits the domain wall feature of a stripe, but the hole density is very broadened.
