Monte Carlo analysis of the half-filled Falicov-Kimball model

  • 1. Department of Theoretical Physics, Institute of Physics, University of Silesia, Uniwersytecka 4, 40-007 Katowice (Poland)

Description

It is known that in the large-U limit the Falicov-Kimball (FK) model maps onto an effective Ising model. For small U, the situation is, however, not so clear. In the present paper we show Monte Carlo results, which indicate the presence of a first-order phase transition in the small-U FK model
