Metamagnetism and Fermi Surface in the Anderson Lattice Model

We investigate magnetization as functions of external magnetic field $H$ in the $U$-infinite Anderson lattice model within the leading order approximation in the $1/N$-expansion. At $T=0$, at $H=H_M$ where the Zeeman energy is equal to a certain characteristic energy in the system, the magnetization curve has a kink and the differential susceptibility $dM/dH$ shows a jump. At finite temperature, $dM/dH$ shows a peak around $H_M$. Its maximum value increases with decreasing $T$ and saturates to a finite value at $T\to 0$. When $HH_M$, the bands reform themselves significantly free from the Luttinger sum rule, eventually leading to a small Fermi surface at $H \gg H_M$. The results are consistent with the metamagnetic properties observed in the heavy fermion CeRu$_2$Si$_2$.
