2pFand4pFInstabilities in the One-Dimensional Electron Gas

Abstract
Charge- and spin-density response functions in the one-dimensional ¼-filled extended Hubbard model have been studied by use of a Monte Carlo technique. The results show that Coulomb interactions suppress the 2pF charge-density singularity, while they enhance the 2pF spin-density singularity. The 4pF response is only appreciable if, in addition to on-site repulsion, longer-range interactions exist. The present results are compared with weak-coupling renormalization-group predictions.
