K. Held et R. Bulla, Mott transition of the f-electron system in the periodic Anderson model with nearest neighbor hybridization, EUR PHY J B, 17(1), 2000, pp. 7-10
We show analytically that, under certain assumptions, the periodic Anderson
model and the Hubbard model become equivalent within the dynamical mean fi
eld theory for quasiparticle weight Z --> 0. A scaling relation is derived
which is validated numerically using the numerical renormalization group at
zero temperature and quantum Monte Carlo simulations at finite temperature
s. Our results show that the f-electrons of the half-filled periodic Anders
on model with nearest neighbor hybridization get localized at a finite crit
ical interaction strength U-c, also at zero temperature. This transition is
equivalent to the Mott-transition in the Hubbard model.
