The metal–insulator transition in the half-filled extended Hubbard model on a triangular lattice

In this paper, we have investigated the metal–insulator transition (MIT) in a two-dimensional half-filled extended Hubbard model on an isotropic triangular lattice with a real space block renormalization group technique. It has been found that the MIT can be driven nontrivially by either the on-site interaction U or the nearest-neighbor one V, but with different critical exponents. Depending upon the values of V, the system could have one, two or three MIT critical points. Moreover, for the metallic regime, we have also studied the competition effect from the spin density wave and charge density wave phases by using a mean-field theory based upon Hartree–Fock approximations. Finally, the single-site entanglement is also calculated and its first derivative with respect to U shows a jump along the critical line of the MIT.
