Abstract

Using the Lanczos method in linear chains we study the double exchange model in the low concentration limit, including an antiferromagnetic super-exchange K. In the strong-coupling limit we find that the ground state contains ferromagnetic polarons whose length is very sensitive to the value of $K/t.$ We investigate the dispersion relation, the trapping by impurities, and the interaction between these polarons. As the overlap between polarons increases, by decreasing $K/t,$ the effective interaction between them changes from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic. The scaling to the thermodynamic limit suggests an attractive interaction in the strong-coupling regime ${(J}_{h}>t)$ and no binding in the weak limit ${(J}_{h}\ensuremath{\simeq}t).$
