Non-local Coulomb interactions on the triangular lattice in the high-doping regime: Spectra and charge dynamics from Extended Dynamical Mean Field Theory (1709.07901v1)

Abstract: We explore the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model on the triangular lattice in the high doping regime. On-site and nearest-neighbour repulsive interactions are treated in a non-perturbative way by means of Extended Dynamical Mean Field Theory. We compute the low-temperature phase diagram, displaying a metallic phase and a symmetry-broken phase for strong intersite repulsions. We describe the correlation effects on both single-particle and two-particle observables in the metallic phase. Whereas single-particle spectra feature a Hubbard satellite typical of strongly correlated systems, local susceptibilities remain close to their non-interacting limit, even for large on-site repulsions. We argue that this behaviour is typical of the strongly doped case. We also report a region in parameter space with negative static local screening.
