Exact relations are derived for the Fermi Hubbard spectral weight function for infinite U at zero temperature in the thermodynamic limit for any dimension,any lattice structure and general hopping matrix. These relations involve moments of the spectral weight function but differ from similar work by (a) restricting the moments over the interesting low energy (lower Hubbard band) spectrum and (b) without any of the usual approximations (e.g. decoupling) for the requisite higher order correlation functions. The latter are determined exactly as explicit functions of the single particle correlation function in the infinite U limit. The methods behind these results have the additional virtue of simplicity - cumbersome, but entirely straightforward. In a companion paper, the relations offer rich insights into the model behavior and offer severe tests - a computer lab - of any proposed solution to the Hubbard model in the strong correlation (large finite U) region. As the electron density approaches one electron per site, then the correlation functions become local, so are trivial to compute exactly. In that limit and for the paramagnetic case, the second central moment of the spectral weight function is not zero, but quite large.

A challenge - and opportunity - is offered to the Hubbard Model community of solutions extant for the strong coupling region. A rigorous and quantitatively demanding test - a Computer Lab - is presented based on certain exact results for the strong coupling limit derived in a companion paper. The test offers rich insights into the essential physics of the model, specifically the quasiparticle energy and width of the spectral weight function in the lower Hubbard band. The widt...

A strong-coupling series expansion for the Green's function and the extremely-correlated Fermi liquid (ECFL) theory are used to calculate the moments of the electronic spectral functions of the infinite-U Hubbard model. Results from these two complementary methods agree very well at both, low densities, where the ECFL solution is the most accurate, and at high to intermediate temperatures, where the series converge. We find that a modified first moment, which underestimates t...

We develop an analytical expression for the self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model that is correct in a number of different limits. The approach represents a generalization of the iterative perturbation theory to arbitrary fillings. In the weak-coupling regime perturbation theory to second order in the interaction U is recovered. The theory is exact in the atomic limit. The high-energy behavior of the self-energy up to order (1/E)**2 and thereby the first four ...

We introduce a method that allows the evaluation of general expressions for the spectral functions of the one-dimensional Hubbard model for all values of the on-site electronic repulsion U. The spectral weights are expressed in terms of pseudofermion operators such that the spectral functions can be written as a convolution of pseudofermion dynamical correlation functions. Our results are valid for all finite energy and momentum values and are used elsewhere in the study of t...

The strong-coupling perturbation theory of the Hubbard model is presented and carried out to order (t/U)^5 for the one-particle Green function in arbitrary dimension. The spectral weight A(k,omega) is expressed as a Jacobi continued fraction and compared with new Monte-Carlo data of the one-dimensional, half-filled Hubbard model. Different regimes (insulator, conductor and short-range antiferromagnet) are identified in the temperature--hopping integral (T,t) plane. This work ...

We give the details of the calculation of the spectral functions of the 1D Hubbard model using the spin-charge factorized wave-function for several versions of the U -> +\infty limit. The spectral functions are expressed as a convolution of charge and spin dynamical correlation functions. A procedure to evaluate these correlation functions very accurately for large systems is developed, and analytical results are presented for the low energy region. These results are fully co...

The Hubbard model is the simplest model of interacting fermions on a lattice and is of similar importance to correlated electron physics as the Ising model is to statistical mechanics or the fruit fly to biomedical science. Despite its simplicity, the model exhibits an incredible wealth of phases, phase transitions, and exotic correlation phenomena. While analytical methods have provided a qualitative description of the model in certain limits, numerical tools have shown impr...

The local moment approach (LMA) has presented itself as a powerful semi-analytical quantum impurity solver (QIS) in the context of the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) for the periodic Anderson model and it correctly captures the low energy Kondo scale for the single impurity model, having excellent agreement with the Bethe ansatz and numerical renormalization group results. However, the most common correlated lattice model, the Hubbard model, has not been explored well wit...

The aim of this paper is to present a self contained introduction to the Hubbard model and some of its applications.The paper consists of two parts: the first will introduce the basic notions of the Hubbard model starting from the motivation for its development to the formulation of the Hamiltonian,and some methods of calculation within the model. The second part will discuss some applications of the model to 1D and 2D systems,based on a combination of the author's results wi...

Paper: cond-mat/9311033 The Hubbard model of interacting electrons, like the Ising model of spin-spin interactions, is the simplest possible model displaying many ``real world'' features, but it is much more difficult to analyze qualitatively than the Ising model. After a third of a century of research, we are still not sure about many of its basic properties. This mini-review will explore what is known rigorously about the model and it will attempt to describe some open prob...
