Quantum Monte Carlo simulation for the spin-drag conductance of the Hubbard model

Abstract

In the situation of two electro-statically coupled conductors a current in one conductor may induce a current in the other one. We will study this phenomenon, called Coulomb drag, in the Hubbard chain where the two ``conductors'' are given by fermions with different spin orientation. With the aid of a Monte Carlo (MC) approach which we presented in a recent paper we calculate the Transconductance in different variants of the Hubbard chain (with/without impurity and additional [long-ranged] interactions) for different fillings.
