Effect of thermal fluctuations of spin density wave order parameter on the quasiparticle spectral function

Abstract

The two-dimensional model of itinerant electrons coupled to an anti-ferromagnetic order parameter is considered. In the mean field solution the Fermi surface undergoes reconstruction, and breaks into disconnected ``pockets''. We have studied the effect of the thermal fluctuations of the order parameter on the spectral density in such system. These fluctuations lead to a finite width of the spectral line scaling linearly with temperature. Due to the thermal fluctuations the quasi-particle spectral weight is transfered into a magnetic Brillouin zone. This can be interpreted as restoration of ``arcs'' of the non-interacting Fermi surface.
