Dynamics of a hole in the t-J model with local disorder: Exact results for high dimensions.

Abstract

We investigate the t-J model including local disorder for a hole in an antiferromagnetic spin background on a hypercubic lattice in d dimensions. We show that the well-known approximation of a linear potential, caused by the Ising term of the spin-spin interaction, is correct up to order 1/${\mathit{d}}^{2}$ and hence becomes exact in d=\ensuremath{\infty}. We also investigate the influence of disorder and compute exactly the Green function and the density of states for a hole in an antiferromagnetic spin background for arbitrary disorder and J in the limit d\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}. Moreover, for finite J and disorder we determine the dynamical conductivity in high dimensions exactly. Remarkable structure both in the density of states and in the dynamical conductivity is found. Finally, we systematically derive the retraceable path approximation by Brinkman and Rice via a self-consistent 1/d expansion, which is correct up to order 1/${\mathit{d}}^{4}$.
