Phase Diagram for a Luttinger Liquid coupled to Phonons in one dimension

Abstract

The Green function and the ordering correlation functions of a system of electrons coupled to acoustic phonons are calculated explicitly. The sensitivity of the correlation function exponents to the Wentzel-Bardeen singularity is discussed. A phase diagram is established for the Hubbard model coupled to phonons, using the integral equations of Lieb and Wu. By increasing the filling factor towards half filling, the Wentzel-Bardeen singularity can be reached for arbitrary phonon coupling. This suppresses antiferromagnetic fluctuations and drives the system in a metallic phase, and ultimately in the triplet superconducting regime.
