Analytical results of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in the high-temperature limit - art. no. 195127

We investigate the grand potential of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in the high-temperature limit, calculating the coefficients of the high-temper ature expansion (beta -expansion) of this function up to order beta (4) by an alternative method. The results derived are analytical and do not involv e any perturbation expansion in the hopping constant, being valid for arbit rary density of electrons in the one-dimensional model. In the half-filled case, we compare our analytical results for the specific heat and the magne tic susceptibility, in the high-temperature limit, with the ones obtained b y Beni et al. [Phys. Rev. B 8, 3329 (1973)] and Takahashi's integral equati ons, showing that the latter result does not take into account the complete energy spectrum of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. The exact integral s olution by Juttner et al. [Nucl. Phys. B 522, 471 (1998)] is applied to the determination of the range of validity of our expansion in beta in the hal f-filled case, for several different values of U.
