Finite Temperature Mott Transition in Hubbard Model on Anisotropic Triangular Lattice

Abstract

We investigate the Hubbard model on the anisotropic triangular lattice by means of the cellular dynamical mean-field theory. The phase diagram determined in the Hubbard interaction versus temperature plane shows novel reentrant behavior in the Mott transition due to the competition between Fermi-liquid formation and magnetic correlations under geometrical frustration. We demonstrate that the reentrant behavior is characteristic of the Mott transition with intermediate geometrical frustration and indeed consistent with recent experimental results of organic materials.
