  5. Cluster DMFT schemes • Mapping of a lattice model onto a quantum impurity model (degrees of freedom in the presence of a Weiss field, the central concept in DMFT). Contain two elements. • 1) Determination of the Weiss field in terms of cluster quantities. • 2) Determination of lattice quantities in terms of cluster quantities (periodization).

  6. Impurity Model-----Lattice Model D , Weiss Field

  7. Effective Action point of view. • Identify observable, A. Construct a free energy functional of <A>=a, G [a] which is stationary at the physical value of a. • Example, density in DFT theory. (Fukuda et. al.). • DMFT (R. Chitra and G.K (2000) (2001). • H=H0+l H1. G [a,J0]=F0[J0 ]–a J0 _ + Ghxc [a] • Functional of two variables, a ,J0. • H0 +A J0 Reference system to think about H. • J0 [a] Is the functional of a with the property <A>0 =a < >0 computed with H0+A J0 • Many choices for H0 and for A • Extremize a to get G [J0]=exta G [a,J0]

  8. Ex: Baym Kadanoff functional,a= G, H0 = free electrons. Viewing it as a functional of J0, Self Energy functional(Potthoff)

  9. CDMFT and NCS as truncations of the Baym Kadanoff functional

  10. Weiss Field Functional

  11. Example: single site DMFT semicircular density of states. GKotliar EPJB (1999) Extremize Potthoff’s self energy functional. It is hard to find saddles using conjugate gradients. Extremize the Weiss field functional.Analytic for saddle point equations are available Minimize some distance

  12. Testing CDMFT (G.. Kotliar,S. Savrasov, G. Palsson and G. Biroli, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 186401 (2001) ) with two sites in the Hubbard model in one dimension V. Kancharla C. Bolech and GK PRB 67, 075110 (2003)][[M.Capone M.Civelli V Kancharla C.Castellani and GK PR B 69,195105 (2004) ] U/t=4.

  13. CDMFT : Strong Coupling Point of View Using Cumulants • Useful to treat constrained models such as the t-J model, or models containing pair hopping terms, or more general Coulomb interactions. • Useful to compare CDMFT constructions built from resummations of the perturbative expansion in the interactions or in the hopping or intersite terms. [No difference in single site DMFT ]

  14. From cluster back to the lattice. • There are several procedures suggested in the literature. • Periodize the greens function. D. Senechal, D. Perez, and M. Pioro-Ladriere, Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 522 (2000). • Periodize the self energy. [ G. Kotliar, S.Y. Savrasov, G. Palsson, and G. Biroli, • Phys. Rev. Lett. 87. 186401 (2001). • Periodize the cumulant. [Stanescu and Kotliar (2005)]

  15. Cumulant Periodization: 2X2 cluster

  16. Self energy and Greens function Periodization .

  17. Comparison of 2 and 4 sites

  18. Convergence for large cluster sizes • In DCA observables converge as 1/L2. (L linear size of the cluster). • In DCA Weiss field is uniform in the cluster and is of order 1/L2. • In CDMFT local observables converge exponentially at finite temperatures and away from critical points. • The Weiss field is of order one, on the boundary of the cluster and zero in the interior of the cluster. Hence

  19. To gain intuition into the various cluster schemes it is useful to derive a semiclassical limit of models such as the Falikov Kimball model that maps onto an Ising model. [Nested Cluster Schemes correspond to CVM and converge the best ]

  20. Causality Issues. • Pair Scheme: restrict the BK functional to Gii and Gi,i+d delta dnearest neighbor. Georges and Kotliar, (1995) , Schiller and Ingerstsen, • Implementation of the scheme shows its was not causal. But why ?? • Zarand et. al. The lack of causality is not intrinsic to the scheme but the result of using approximate solvers.

  21. Biroli Parcollet and Kotliar. • The causality violations are intrinsic to the scheme and not due to approximate solvers. Lack of closure of the Cutkovski-T’hooft cutting equations. • Causality is violated only when the actual range of the self energy exceeds substantially the range of the truncation. • Generalized the pair scheme to allow for longer range truncations. Express in terms of a nested set of AIM. Nested Cluster Schemes. • The approach is more rapidly convergent, at least in the semiclassical limit (where it reduces to the cluster variation method) than CDMFT.

  22. Sufficient condition for causality Sufficient Condition for Causality:All diagrams in the class considered can be obtained once and only once by gluing one right part and one left part.

  23. Sufficient Condition for Causality:All diagrams in the class considered can be obtained once and only once by gluing one right part and one left part. Condition is not satisfied in pair scheme. For example L can contain sites i and j, R can contain sites i and k. But the glued diagram contains i j and k which is not present in the pair scheme. i,j i,k

  24. Benchmark :1D Hubbard ModelM. Capone, M. Civelli, S.S. Kancharla, C. Castellani, G. Kotliar,Phys. Rev B 69, 195105 (2004) H= -t ∑jσ c†jσcj+1σ+ h.c +U ∑ nj↑ nj↓ -μ N U= 4 t Exact Bethe Ansatz (BA) VS Dynamical Mean Field Theory VS Cellular Dynamical Mean Field Theory (2 site cluster only!)

  25. Convergence of the approach n_CMDFT-n_BA vs mu

  26. Comparison between cluster quantities and DMRG.

  27. Kinetic energy

  28. Extraction of lattice quantities: benchmark. • Cluster quantities are good to compute G11 but not good to compute G12 or the kinetic energy. (overestimation of Sigma_12 due to the procedure of moving bonds). • Lattice Greens function, yields good G12 or kinetic energy. The reduction of the self energy by averaging or by imposing causality is PHYSICAL!. Cumulant method gives nice physical quantities near the Mott insulator.

  29. Outline • Concepts from DMFT . Weiss Field. Functional Derivations. Effective Action Constructions. Weiss Field Functionals. What is the best variable to formulate the problem ?

  32. Approximate functional, truncate the Weiss field to a finite number of parameters. Is there an optimal choice ? xxx

  43. Focus of this work • Generalize and extend these approaches. • Obtain the solution of the 2X 2 plaquette and gain physical understanding of the different CDMFT states. • Even if the results are changed by going to larger clusters, the short range physics is general and will teach us important lessons. Furthermore the results can be stabilized by adding further interactions.
