Finite Temperature Strong Coupling Expansions for the SU(N) Hubbard Model

Abstract

We develop finite temperature strong coupling expansions for the SU(N) Hubbard Model in powers of , and for arbitrary filling. The expansions are done in the grand canonical ensemble and are most useful at a density of one particle per site, where for larger than or of order the Bandwidth, the expansions converge over a wide temperature range . By taking the limit , valid at temperatures much less than , the expansions turn into a high temperature expansion for a dressed SU(N) Heisenberg model that includes nearest-neighbor exchange, further neighbor exchanges and ring exchanges known from the perturbation theory of the SU(2) Hubbard model. Below a filling of one particle per site, the limit corresponds to an effective model. The onset of strong correlations can be identified by a plateau-like behavior in the entropy as a function of temperature. At small deviations from one particle per site, the expansions can be arranged in powers of a small parameter , the deviation from one particle per site, where the leading dependent terms correspond to holes sloshing around in a disordered SU(N) background. We use these expansions to calculate the thermodynamic properties of the model at moderate and high temperatures over a wide parameter range.
