نحن نقوم بتحقيق تأثير تحكم في طاقة الفونون على التأثيرات الارتباطية في نماذج التفاعلات الإلكترون-فونون باستخدام DMFT. في النطاق الذي يتنافس فيه الإلكترونات المسافرون والتأثيرات المدفوعة عن طريق الإلكترون-فونون الفورية والتشوهات الثابتة على مستويات طاقة متشابهة، نجد عدداً من النتائج المثيرة للاهتمام من بينها (1) تحول من الحزمة إلى السلوك الموت في الوظيفة الطيفية، مما يؤدي إلى تشكيل ميزات مختلطة بين الحزمة والموت في الوظيفة الطيفية للفونون بمعدلات أكثر من العرض الحزمة.

We investigate the effect of tuning the phonon energy on the correlation effects in models of electron-phonon interactions using DMFT. In the regime where itinerant electrons, instantaneous electron-phonon driven correlations and static distortions compete on similar energy scales, we find several interesting results including (1) A crossover from band to Mott behavior in the spectral function, leading to hybrid band/Mott features in the spectral function for phonon frequencies slightly larger than the band width. (2) Since the optical conductivity depends sensitively on the form of the spectral function, we show that such a regime should be observable through the low frequency form of the optical conductivity. (3) The resistivity has a double kondo peak arrangement

We study the impact of electron-phonon interactions on the many-body instabilities of electrons on the honeycomb lattice and their interplay with repulsive local and non-local Coulomb interactions at charge neutrality. To that end, we consider in-plane optical phonon modes with wavevectors close to the $Gamma$ point as well as to the $K, -K$ points and calculate the effective phonon-mediated electron-electron interaction by integrating out the phonon modes. Ordering tendencies are studied by means of a momentum-resolved functional renormalization group approach allowing for an unbiased investigation of the appearing instabilities. In the case of an exclusive and supercritical phonon-mediated interaction, we find a Kekule and a nematic bond ordering tendency being favored over the $s$-wave superconducting state. The competition between the different phonon-induced orderings clearly shows a repulsive interaction between phonons at small and large wavevector transfers. We further discuss the influence of phonon-mediated interactions on electronically-driven instabilities induced by onsite, nearest neighbor and next-to-nearest neighbor density-density interactions. We find an extension of the parameter regime of the spin density wave order going along with an increase of the critical scales where ordering occurs, and a suppression of competing orders.
This work presents a method of grouping the electron spinors and the acoustic phonon modes of polar crystals such as metal oxides into an SU(2) gauge theory. The gauge charge is the electron spin, which is assumed to couple to the transverse acoustic phonons on the basis of spin ordering phenomena in crystals such as V$_{2}$O$_{3}$ and VO$_{2}$, while the longitudinal mode is neutral. A generalization the Peierls mechanism is presented based on the discrete gauge invariance of crystals and the corresponding Ward-Takahashi identity. The introduction of a band index violates the Ward-Takahashi identity for interband transitions resulting in a longitudinal component appearing in the upper phonon band. Thus both the spinors and the vector bosons acquire mass and a crystal with an electronic band gap and optical phonon modes results. In the limit that the coupling of bosons charged under the SU(2) gauge group goes to zero, breaking the electron U(1) symmetry recovers the BCS mechanism. In the limit that the neutral boson decouples, a Cooper instability mediated by spin-wave exchange results from symmetry breaking, i.e. unconventional superconductivity mediated by magnetic interactions.
Existing Quantum Monte Carlo studies have investigated the properties of fermions on a Lieb (CuO$_2$) lattice interacting with an on-site, or near-neighbor electron-electron coupling. Attention has focused on the interplay of such interactions with the macroscopic degeneracy of local zero energy modes, from which Bloch states can be formed to produce a flat band in which energy is independent of momentum. The resulting high density of states, in combination with the Stoner criterion, suggests that there should be pronounced instabilities to ordered phases. Indeed, a theorem by Lieb rigorously establishes the existence of ferrimagnetic order. Here we study the charge density wave phases induced by electron-phonon coupling on the Lieb lattice, as opposed to previous work on electron-electron interactions. Our key result is the demonstration of charge density wave (CDW) phases at one-third and two-thirds fillings, characterized by long-range density density correlations between doubly occupied sites on the minority or majority sublattice, and an accompanying gap. We also compute the transition temperature to the ordered phase as a function of the electron-phonon coupling.
The interplay of Coulomb and electron-phonon interactions with thermal and quantum fluctuations facilitates rich phase diagrams in two-dimensional electron systems. Layered transition metal dichalcogenides hosting charge, excitonic, spin and superconducting order form an epitomic material class in this respect. Theoretical studies of materials like NbS$_2$ have focused on the electron-phonon coupling whereas the Coulomb interaction, particularly strong in the monolayer limit, remained essentially untouched. Here, we analyze the interplay of short- and long-range Coulomb as well as electron-phonon interactions in NbS$_2$ monolayers. The combination of these interactions causes electronic correlations that are fundamentally different to what would be expected from the interaction terms separately. The fully interacting electronic spectral function resembles the non-interacting band structure but with appreciable broadening. An unexpected coexistence of strong charge and spin fluctuations puts NbS$_2$ close to spin and charge order, suggesting monolayer NbS$_2$ as a platform for atomic scale engineering of electronic quantum phases.
Systems with strong electron-phonon couplings typically exhibit various forms of charge order, while strong electron-electron interactions lead to magnetism. We use determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) calculations to solve a model on a square lattice with a caricature of these interactions. In the limit where electron-electron interactions dominate it has antiferromagnetic (AF) order, while where electron-phonon coupling dominates there is columnar valence-bond solid (VBS) order. We find a novel intervening phase that hosts coexisting nematic and antiferromagnetic orders. We have also found evidence of a Landau-forbidden continuous quantum phase transition with an emergent $O(4)$ symmetry between the VBS and the nematic antiferromagnetic phases.
