Emergence of a common energy scale close to the orbital-selective Mott
transition
   [PDF]

Markus Greger, Marcus Kollar, Dieter Vollhardt
We calculate the spectra and spin susceptibilities of a Hubbard model with two bands having different bandwidths but the same on-site interaction, with parameters close to the orbital-selective Mott transition, using dynamical mean-field theory. If the Hund's rule coupling is sufficiently strong, one common energy scale emerges which characterizes both the location of kinks in the self-energy and extrema of the diagonal spin susceptibilities. A physical explanation of this energy scale is derived from a Kondo-type model. We infer that for multi-band systems local spin dynamics rather than spectral functions determine the location of kinks in the effective band structure.
