Ferromagnetism in an itinerant electron system: Hubbard model on complete graph

Abstract

In this work, the ground states of the Hubbard model on complete graph are studied, for a finite lattice size $L$ and arbitrary on-site energy $U$. We construct explicitly the ground states of the system when the number of the electrons $N_e\ge L+1$. In particular, for $N_e=L+1$, the ground state is ferromagnetic with total spin $s_g=(N_e-2)/2$.
