Optical Conductivity of the Two-Dimensional Hubbard Model

Abstract

Charge dynamics of the two-dimensional Hubbard model is investigated. Lancz os-diagonalization results for the optical conductivity and the Drude weight of this model are presented. Near the Mott transition, large incoherence below the upper-Hubbard band is obtained together with a remarkably suppressed Drude weight in two dimensions while the clearly coherent character is shown in one dimension. The two-dimensional results are consistent with previous results from quantum Monte Carlo calculations indicating that the Mott transition in this two-dimensional model belongs to the universality class characterized by the dynamical exponent of z=4.
