Abstract
We study the combined effects of local and nonlocal hybridization on the formation and condensation of the excitonic bound states in the extended Falicov-Kimball model by the density-matrix-renormalization-group (DMRG) method. Analysing the resultant behaviours of the excitonic momentum distribution we found, that unlike the local hybridization , which supports the formation of the momentum condensate, the nonlocal hybridization supports the formation of the momentum condensate. The combined effect of local and nonlocal hybridization further enhances the excitonic correlations in as well as state, especially for and values from the charge-density-wave (CDW) region. Strong effects of local and nonlocal hybridization are observed also for other ground-state quantities of the model such as the -electron density, or the density of unbound -electrons, which are generally enhanced with increasing and . The same calculations performed for nonzero values of -level energy revealed that this model can yield a reasonable explanation for the pressure-induced resistivity anomaly observed experimentally in compound.
