Topological phase transitions and universality in the Haldane-Hubbard model

Alessandro Giuliani, Ian Jauslin, Vieri Mastropietro, Marcello Porta

24/5/16 Published in : arXiv:1605.07407

We study the Haldane-Hubbard model by exact Renormalization Group techniques. We construct the topological phase diagram, for weak interactions. We predict that many-body interactions induce a shift of the transition line. The presence of new intermediate phases, absent in the non interacting case, is rigorously excluded at weak coupling. Despite the nontrivial renormalization of the wave function and of the Fermi velocity, the conductivity is universal: at the renormalized critical line, both the discontinuity of the transverse conductivity and the longitudinal conductivity do not depend on the interaction, thanks to remarkable cancellations due to lattice Ward Identities.
