{"title":"Charge Susceptibility and Kubo Response in Hatsugai-Kohmoto-related Models","authors":"Yuhao Ma, Jinchao Zhao, Edwin W. Huang, Dhruv Kush, Barry Bradlyn, Philip W. Phillips","doi":"arxiv-2409.07522","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/arxiv-2409.07522","url":null,"abstract":"We study in depth the charge susceptibility for the band Hatsugai-Kohmoto\u0000(HK) and orbital (OHK) models. As either of these models describes a Mott\u0000insulator, the charge susceptibility takes on the form of a modified Lindhard\u0000function with lower and upper Hubbard bands, thereby giving rise to a\u0000multi-pole structure. The particle-hole continuum consists of hot spots along\u0000the $omega$ vs $q$ axis arising from inter-band transitions. Such transitions,\u0000which are strongly suppressed in non-interacting systems, are obtained here\u0000because of the non-rigidity of the Hubbard bands. This modified Lindhard\u0000function gives rise to a plasmon dispersion that is inversely dependent on the\u0000momentum, resulting in an additional contribution to the conventional f-sum\u0000rule. This extra contribution originates from a long-range diamagnetic\u0000contribution to the current. This results in a non-commutativity of the\u0000long-wavelength ($qrightarrow 0$) and thermodynamic ($Lrightarrowinfty$)\u0000limits. When the correct limits are taken, we find that the Kubo response\u0000computed with either open or periodic boundary conditions yields identical\u0000results that are consistent with the continuity equation contrary to recent\u0000claims. We also show that the long wavelength pathology of the current noted\u0000previously also plagues the Anderson impurity model interpretation of dynamical\u0000mean-field theory (DMFT). Coupled with our previous workcite{mai20231} which\u0000showed that HK is the correct $d=infty$ limit of the Hubbard model, we arrive\u0000at the conclusion that single-orbital HK=DMFT.","PeriodicalId":501171,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Strongly Correlated Electrons","volume":"172 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142180418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
