Metal-insulator transition and antiferromagnetism in the generalized Hubbard model: Treatment of correlation effects

Abstract

The ground state for the half-filled $t-t^{\prime }$ Hubbard model is treated within the Hartree-Fock approximation and the slave boson approach including correlations. The criterium for the metal-insulator transition in the Slater scenario is formulated using an analytical free-energy expansion in the next-nearest-neighbor transfer integral $t^{\prime }$ and in direct antiferromagnetic gap $\Delta$. The correlation effects are generally demonstrated to favor the first-order transition. For a square lattice with a strong van Hove singularity, accidental close degeneracy of antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases is analytically found in a wide parameter region. As a result, there exists an interval of $t^{\prime }$ values for which the metal-insulator transition is of the first order due to the existence of the van Hove singularity. This interval is very sensitive to model parameters (direct exchange integral) or external parameters. For the simple and body-centered cubic lattices, the transition from the insulator antiferromagnetic state with increasing $t^{\prime }$ occurs to the phase of an antiferromagnetic metal and is a second-order transition which is followed by a transition to a paramagnetic metal. These results are quantitatively modified when taking into account the intersite Heisenberg interaction, which can induce first-order transitions. A comparison with the Monte Carlo results is performed.
