Disordered Hubbard model in $d=\infty$
/ Authors
/ Abstract
We investigate the effects of static, diagonal disorder in the $d=\infty$ Hubbard model by treating the dynamical effects of local Hubbard correlations and disorder on an equal footing. This is achieved by a proper combination of the iterated perturbation theory and the coherent potential approximation. Within the paramagnetic phase, we find that the renormalized Fermi liquid metal phase of the pure Hubbard model is stable against disorder for small disorder strengths. With increasing disorder, strong resonant scattering effects destroy low-energy Fermi liquid coherence, leading to an {\it incoherent} metallic non-FL state off half-filling. Finally, for large enough disorder, a {\it continuous} transition to the Mott-Anderson insulating phase occurs. The nature of the non-FL metallic phase, as well as the effects of the low energy coherence (incoherence) on optical conductivity and electronic Raman spectra, are considered in detail.
