Dynamical exchange-correlation potential formalism for spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Heisenberg and Hubbard chains: the antiferromagnetic/half-filled case

Abstract

The exchange-correlation potential formalism previously introduced and applied to the one-dimensional Hubbard model has been extended to spin systems and applied to the case of the one-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin$-\frac{1}{2}$ Heisenberg model. Within the spin exchange-correlation potential formulation, a new sum rule for spin-systems is derived. The exchange-correlation potential for the Heisenberg model is extrapolated from exact diagonalization results of small antiferromagnetic Heisenberg clusters. This procedure is also employed to revisit and computationally improve the previous investigation of the exchange-correlation potential of the half-filled Hubbard model, which was based on the exchange-correlation potential of the dimer. Numerical comparisons with exact benchmark calculations for both the Heisenberg and the Hubbard models indicate that, starting from the exchange-correlation potential of a finite cluster, the extrapolation procedure yields a one-particle spectral function with favorable accuracy at a relatively low computational cost. In addition, a comparison between the ground state energies for the one-dimensional Hubbard and Heisenberg models displays how the well known similarity in behavior of the two models at large interactions manifests within the exchange-correlation potential formalism.
