Hall anomalies of the doped Mott insulator

Abstract

Abstract The Hall coefficient of the strongly interacting square lattice Hubbard model is calculated for temperatures between the antiferromagnetic interaction and the Mott gap scales. The leading order thermodynamic formula is evaluated for all doping concentrations. Second-order corrections of the thermodynamic formula are calculated and found to be negligible. The Hall coefficient diverges toward the Mott insulator. Below 45% doping the Hall sign is reversed relative to band structure-based Boltzmann’s equation. These results elucidate the effects of the Mott insulator on the charge carriers and their non-Fermi liquid transport.
